Dessau No.3 Upholstery Fabric
If you’re searching for bold, geometric upholstery fabric with unmistakable personality, Dessau No.3 delivers with full creative force. Part of our Dessau Upholstery Fabric Collection, this vivid design is rooted in Bauhaus modernism but reimagined with a richer, more saturated palette. Layered squares and rectangles in crimson, cobalt, turquoise, mustard, and verdant green form a rhythmic grid, softened by painterly texture and subtle distressing.
This fabric’s colour intensity and abstract layout make it perfect for standout armchairs, modular sofas, and statement footstools. Use Dessau No.3 in a maximalist interior, or let it contrast beautifully against pared-back modern architecture. Its multicoloured surface makes pairing easy – try it with natural wood, bold primary accents, or even metallic décor details.
Printed on a robust upholstery basecloth with excellent durability, this design is a confident choice for both aesthetic impact and everyday function. Whether you’re crafting custom seating or reviving a vintage piece, Dessau No.3 is a future-forward classic.
