Enhance your design scheme
With Itami Decorative Weaves and Embroideries from Romo.
Whether you’re looking to add a subtle blend of textures to your interiors or want fabrics which catch the light differently from certain angles in a sophisticated yet playful way then the Itami Decorative Weaves and Embroideries Collection from Romo might just be the perfect statement for your home.
An eclectic and playful collection full of bold colourways and textures
This collection is wonderfully eclectic and if you were thinking that weaved or embroidered fabric meant old fashioned then the ranges available here are sure to change your opinion for good. With an exciting array of different colours and designs this look and feel is anything but plain and boring.
The Hazuri range for instance – available in three different colourways clearly blends the fashion forward fabric design of a classic Missoni print with liveable, friendly tones and introduces vibrant teals in the Hummingbird option or cool modern pinks in Serandite. Chevrons are a bold statement, but when used sparingly on upholstery or cushions and paired with subtler, plain fabrics offer great versatility.
Hazuri offers Bold chevrons in a range of contemporary colours
If you are excited by the thought of evoking a feeling of impressionistic paintings in your scheme then the Nakino range with its embroidered linen blend is fantastically tactile to the touch and would be perfect for creating a soft, artistically centred backdrop. The overall feel of this fabric is reminiscent of the light and ethereal paint strokes of Monet and Degas and would look particularly effective if paired with bold pieces of art whether that’s a modern abstract approach or a more traditional look.
The Nakino range feels painterly and impressionist.
When it comes to floral fabrics the magnolia flower always offers a bold yet classically sophisticated look that allows other colours and fabrics to take centre stage whilst still giving a strong floral touch that doesn’t feel too chintzy and over the top. The beauty of the Saphira range is its timelessness – this fabric will never feel trend orientated or dated. It’s also been intricately embroidered onto 100 percent linen so the overall impression you make with this fabric in your interiors is commitment to quality.
The Saphira range is bold yet classically sophisticated with a subtle magnolia flower design.
With four different colourways to choose from whether you want the bold pink hues of Rocoto for a statement bedroom scheme or the more subtle shades of Eucalyptus for a dining or living area this range offers versatility and subtlety in equal measure.
Mid century styling is no longer a trend – the fabrics and furniture that were popular in the 1950s and 60s are now style staples in any home where the owner wants to put practicality and liveability first whilst still ensuring the design is aesthetically pleasing.
Oku offers unique layered stitches - perfect for a mid-century look.
The key if you’re after a modern interpretation of this look is to choose a quality fabric like the Oku range in the Itami Collection - a cotton fabric embroidered all over in a classic cross hatch design which makes it perfect for recovering a statement 1950s chair or sofa. Whether you opt for the vibrant mustard tones of Olivine or the more muted and neutral Tamarind it’s sure to make just the right impression.
Chinoiserie and oriental themed interiors are currently experiencing a surge in popularity and when you take a look at painted and lacquered furniture from the late 1800s along with the stunning array of beautiful Japanese ceramics available its easy to see why. The Itami fabric takes its inspiration from Japanese gardens with a gentle tree design repeat that feels whimsical yet strong.
The Itami Fabric in Spice
With seven different colourways to choose from Itami would be equally at home surrounding a feature window on a main staircase as it would be forming minimal blinds in an attic study. If you’re looking to make a particularly strong oriental design statement in your home then pairing the classic Japanese blossom look of Sakuya with Itami will help create depth and contrast in any scheme.
The intricate weaves and embroideries that feature throughout all of the Itami collection are exuberant without feeling overly fussy which makes them the perfect choice for anyone looking for sophistication with touches of natural beauty.
