My love for KUFRI runs deep. Mili's fabrics are so versatile and individually unique that I feel I can use them repeatedly without the fabrics feeling old or tired. All the KUFRI textiles nail that organic-earthy feel that I love bringing into my design work and are perfect for layering with one another. The scale of the patterns combined with curated colorways make them my go-to's for upholstery, drapery and pillows. Thank God Mili is in Texas too! The Showroom is beautiful and has become a favorite place to pop by when I'm up in my home town of Dallas.
We went to KUFRI for all of the pillows in this entire project. The living room of this new build home just outside of the Austin City Limits had a lot going on with a purple velvet sofa, soaring high ceilings and plastered fireplace. We needed the 'right' textiles to balance the space out that would provide a grounding effect while remaining interesting. Layering in various KUFRI fabrics (
Karuso in Natural, Carmel in Cream, and
Tribal in Black) did exactly what I was looking for by balancing the flow of the space out with some subtle patterns and textures. We played around with scale in this project with such high ceilings and were so very intentional about each and every element that lives in this room.
We had the same approach in the master bedroom with a bright velvet headboard. We wanted a
fabric that complimented the headboard but was subtle and interesting at the same time to create a nice layering effect.
I strive to invoke in people a desire to linger in a space and there is such value in every single textile piece having a purpose and adding to this mood. I can't overstate the importance of details in my interior work and how every single element matters and that's why I am so drawn to Mili's textiles.
This
Rex fabric may be my all time favorite fabric by KUFRI - it's playful, versatile and chic. How could we not make an entire bed out of it?
This is an East Austin home where an artist and a musician reside. We were going for a colorful master suite that was playful without being juvenile. I tried to achieve this balance by layering in various shades of blue combined with a classic black and white and in interesting shapes and patterns, like
Cusco Stripe in Natural. The elements play off one another to create a room that really comes across as fun without being too bold or busy.
