Colorful Textiles We Love for Floors or Tables
When it comes to versatile textiles, designer Sandy Chilewich's eponymous studio creates innovative products for both domestic and industrial settings. Originally introduced to the international design community in 2000, Chilewich's woven textiles have redefined the way people cover their tables and floors. From placemats for an outdoor tabletop to floor coverings for a busy hallway, the Dwell Store features many of Chilewich's best-selling products.
This placemat is designed to provide a bright accent on a dining table or kitchen counter, while functioning as a durable mat to protect surfaces from spills. The mats are made from intricately woven vinyl and terrastrand, creating a strong, weather-resistant mat that can be used both indoors and out. Sold as a set of four.
The Skinny Stripe mat blends slim bands of color for an alluring pattern that gives a sense of movement from a distance. Made from extruded yarns, the mat features a tufted texture that adds visual interest. A strong vinyl backing makes the mat an excellent choice for high traffic areas.
The Bend Lucy Chair, pictured, is also available at the Dwell Store.
