Few textile designers have garnered the international notoriety as Jack Lenor Larsen. A pioneer of 20th century craftsmanship, Larsen has drawn inspiration from his myriad collections to weave design into unexpected places, showcasing individuality and global inspiration.
Larsen's first foray into the world of indoor/outdoor performance fabrics was created for his own home, LongHouse. The LongHouse Reserve mission – to live with art every day – as showcased by the patterns created for the Larsen Performance Collection with Sunbrella. Because the fabric is long-lasting, fade-proof and easy to clean, the Larsen Performance collection offers the luxury of living with art no matter the lifestyle. Whether used for seating, pillows or something custom, each pattern tells its own unique story.
The collection's distinctly modern patterns enable the ultimate expression of self and feature an archival floral pattern in velvety soft chenille, a matelassé damask motif, a stripe that reads like hieroglyphic inscriptions, an all-over graphic jacquard with maze-like stitchery, a lush palm leaf pattern, a beautiful midscale basketry pattern and a multi-stripe to finish every indoor and outdoor space.
Color and texture play equal roles in fabric design. The tonal and atonal shades provide a warmth, coziness and sense of calm while the use of several orange colorations evoke feelings of happiness. The textured chenille in both striped and jacquard patterns offers a tactile comfort for indoor and outdoor living that Larsen champions as an added benefit to the performance of Sunbrella fabrics that are water-resistant and bleach-cleanable.
