Asparagus Interiors Inc.

Every designer oggles and googles over Maharam’s line of fabric. Frequently used in commercial applications, their fabrics can be used in residential design. Maharam focuses on a reduced environmental impact in development of their fabrics. They offer fabric made with recyclable material and natural fibers. Stick to the natural fibers and you’re doing good, such as the Shepherd’s Check.

Maharam also offers “Textiles of the 20th Century,” a line featuring designers such as Alexander Girard and Charles and Ray Eames.

I’m considering Maharam as an eco-friendly offering due to their extensive use of wool from the UK, their reduced environmental impact in manufacturing and their revitalized approach to bringing traditional patterns such as houndstooth and checks to a much larger scale for the modern application. Bigger is better these days in pattern selection.
