Introducing the Populist Collection: Upholstery Fabric That Makes a Statement
At Saint and Poet, we believe fabric should do more than just upholster—it should speak. The Populist Upholstery Fabric Collection is our latest release: a bold and thought-provoking range of multicoloured upholstery fabrics designed to inject energy, humour, and artistic edge into your interior.
Designs That Start a Conversation
The Populist Collection draws its name from the idea of accessible visual impact. These are designs rooted in visual culture—juxtaposing geometric forms, stylised figures, and saturated colour palettes to create modern upholstery fabrics that feel dynamic and unafraid. Every piece is a printed artwork in its own right, designed to turn furniture into focal points and rooms into stories.
Digitally printed in-house in the UK on our signature linen blend (47% linen, 40% cotton, 13% nylon), each fabric combines high-performance durability with fine art sensibility. Whether used for armchairs, footstools, cushions or statement chairs, these pieces are intended to stand out—and stand the test of time.
Multicoloured and Multifunctional
This collection sits confidently among our Multicoloured Upholstery Fabrics, offering a vibrant mix of tones that bring interiors to life. From rhythmic abstraction to figurative print, these textiles transform vintage seating, minimalist spaces, or layered, eclectic homes.
All designs in the Populist Collection are suitable for both upholstery and curtains, with a supple, structured drape that works beautifully across soft furnishings. And with a Martindale durability of 35,000+ rubs, they’re ideal for both domestic and commercial use.
Part of a Bigger Story
The launch of Populist aligns with a wider shift we’re seeing in interiors: toward expressive, art-driven spaces. Like our Expressionism Upholstery Fabrics, these designs reflect a move toward maximalism, narrative, and joyfully unconventional styling.
