This weeks best Chaise of the Week is a Modern extra-large chaise lounge with a traditional twist. Our client used a Linwood Tresco fabric to combine that country garden feel but, with a more modern shaped chaise lounge, and the result looks stunning. Tresco, a traditional floral design has been expertly repainted in the Linwood studio and is based on an archival design. Complimenting the chaise is a set of hand polished walnut splayed legs, which like the frame are made from sustainably sourced hardwood.

For our best Chaise of the Week #18, we have this beautiful extra-large chaise longue upholstered in a clients own Timorous Beasties Golden Oriole fabric with oak ball & claw legs. This striking velvet makes this chaise a true statement piece. Underneath the fabric we have high quality foam and fillings, a steel sprung seat and a hardwood frame giving our chaise lounges lasting comfort.

In 2004 Timorous Beasties released their acclaimed Glasgow Toile: by reversing the pastoral context of toiles de Jouy, they transformed the traditional toile device to create an new modern urban genre. The Hotch Blotch fabric series challenges a 1000-year old aesthetic mode by placing disorder within the structure of damask pattern to reveal the inherent beauty of splatters, drips and blotches. Hunting Toile and Urban wallpapers mark a synthesis of 18th-century Chinoiserie groupings, Rococo swirls and Victorian silhouette paper cuts to create a uniquely contemporary ornamental textiles pattern repeat.
The art critic John Ruskin related a universal connection between nature, art and society. Timorous Beasties share a similar world view, where plants, animals and society are visually inextricable. They are devoted to how that impacts as pattern design in our daily experience of furnished spaces, from one-bedroom flats to country villas, to the halls of civic and government buildings, departure lounge backdrops, boutique enclaves, restaurants, and hotels.
