Club Tropicalia by Mokum

 

Outdoor furniture and textiles have become indistinguishable from indoor equivalents as new technologies allow different yarns, constructions and techniques to be beautifully resolved in a manner that will withstand the rigours of our unique environmental conditions.

Mokum’s latest release, Club Tropicalia, responds to the global trend that sees soft interior aesthetics extending to the exterior. This growing design movement allows for the creation of outdoor living spaces that evoke a luxurious and comforting ambiance, encouraging us to eat, socialize and relax outside. The collection typifies the transitional boundary between indoor and out, residential and commercial with all designs having a soft residential handle and commercial high performance attributes.

“My big rave for latest textiles has to be the outdoor velvet South Beach from Mokum.

This fabric has withstood the weather from rain, sun and hailstorms.  It is still looking fabulous and I have also specified this fabric for a client’s indoor couch.

They have a great colour palette like Pearl, Sand, Silver, Grey Marl, Charcoal, Cigar and Driftwood.  The colour I used was Palm Leaf which nestles into the garden setting beautifully.

There is also a range of co-ordinates that work fabulously with this.  You cannot go past this fabric for wearability.”
