There are several ways of wall decoration. Of course, the most common are painting or pasting with wallpaper. However, to give the interior of sophistication and charm, other options are needed. The oldest method of decor is tightening with a fabric. This requires to find suitable material and purchase fabric in bulk. What characteristics should such products have?
The main varieties
Modern industry offers an amazing range of fabrics. They differ in many criteria, and above all, by the type of fibers. The most widespread are:
natural (linen, cotton, silk);
artificial (viscose);
synthetic (polyamide, polyester, polypropylene, etc.);
Mixed materials (combination of silk with polyester, for example).
In principle, the walls can be finished with any fabric. Historical experience confirms that earlier Jacquard, brocade, and atlas were actively used for this purpose. But do not forget about the possibilities of modern technology. So, for example, today a modified non -combustible synthetic fiber is produced. It does not fade, does not wander, has antistatic properties, therefore it is most often used for wall upholstery.
The main qualities
What should you pay attention to when choosing such fabrics? First of all, you should make sure that this material is resistant to sunlight. Otherwise, an expensive decoration after a short period of time will lose an attractive appearance.
The second aspect is ease of care. Specially designed fabrics are usually subjected to special processing, which improves their operational properties. And another important criterion is convenience in work. Experts claim that it is much easier to tighten the walls with synthetic fabrics than natural.
