Avant No.5 Upholstery Fabric
Avant No.5 Upholstery Fabric – Bold Cubist Textile for Statement Interiors
Avant No.5 Upholstery Fabric captures the essence of early 20th-century cubism in an unapologetically bold design that demands attention. Overlapping circular, oval, and triangular forms in warm ochre, blush pink, deep red, and black create an architectural textile that celebrates shape, symmetry, and movement.
At once nostalgic and thoroughly modern, this fabric is perfect for high-end interior projects seeking something distinctive. The geometric arrangement is softened by a subtly textured weave, giving the piece a tactile depth that enhances its visual rhythm. Whether used for upholstering a sculptural chair, a modernist sofa, or as the focal fabric in a curated interior scheme, Avant No.5 delivers.
Saint and Poet’s upholstery fabrics are digitally printed in-house in the UK, allowing us to maintain exceptional colour fidelity and production consistency. More than just decorative, this design is backed by contract-grade durability, with a Martindale rub count exceeding 35,000 cycles, making it suitable for both residential and commercial settings.
For interior designers or homeowners looking to blend bold visual language with artisanal quality, Avant No.5 is a standout option. Discover how its graphic geometry pairs effortlessly with mid-century modern aesthetics, Bauhaus influences, and minimalist palettes.
