furniture styles

This sofa seems very luxourious and stylish. It has a good structure. It looks very classy and very modern-day.

This bed has a cool headboard and box around it. I like how it has that design. It would be a hard design to make, but its worth it cause it looks unique. Hardwood.

This couch seems kind of retro looking. It's construction is 3 different sofa's put together to make one couch. It looks to be more for looks rather to sit or lay down on. It doesn't have that much detail to it.

This dresser uses a darker wood and probably more stable to hold larger and heavier things. Most dressers these days don't come with mirrors on top. This probably uses a hardwood.

4 lines

Stripe lines can be used for repetition or color. This can make a room look colorful or boring, depending on if your stripes have color in them or not.

This is a pattern on a drape. You can use this or any design on a drape to bring life to the room, or a pattern.

This pattern is called Valance. All the lines are the same, but different colors. Usually used with bright colors.

These lines are both horizontal and vertical for a unique pattern

Fabrics used in furniture production

Unlike most fabrics, silk is very slippery and uses a certain type of production to get its silky feel. This type of fabric has a nice look and is very comfortable. This style was most likely made for comfortability and a nice feel to it. Silk also has a shimmering look to it. You wouldn't want little children or pets on a silk couch. Silk is very delicate. If you were to re-purpose it, you could make the couch for "only" looks, and no one to sit down on. But if you wanted people to sit down on your couch or other kind of silk furniture, you could use a less delicate kind of silk. You could use this piece of furniture in the more "nicer" looking part of your home.

Fabrics
Jacquard weaving- has the highest level of warp yarn control. This kind of weaving use to use drawloom, which is where warp ends are pulled up by second operator. The term refers to the added control mechanism that automates the patterning.
Plain weave- has weft and warp threads interwined in a alternated way to look like a checkerboard. It is the simplest and most common kind of warp and weft. The 2 kinds are equal and the spacing is equal on the weave.
Satin weave- this kind of weave is more complicated than a plain weave, but it is flexible. It is made by interlacing of threads that are arranged in a way that the face of cloth is covered. Floating warp or weft yarns may bring them to surface.
Twill weave- is made from parallel diagonal ribs from right-to-left or left-to-right. Can be made by interlacing warp threats over 1-2 filling thread all in alternate rows. It will be more pliable than the plain or basket weave but less pliable than satin
