Well-made fabric textures are essential to be able to digitally reproduce this complexity and to achieving photo-real results. All of that makes them an essential focal point of design, but also poses a challenge for everyone working in 3D visualization.įabrics possess complex surfaces, joining organic structures in regular patterns, while their appearance is strongly influenced by specular as well as translucent characteristics. Fabrics combine style and functionality, and are manufactured in countless varieties. Today, fabrics are fundamental in defining the character of interior spaces as much as they define our perception of people. The importance of fabrics in interior design, as well as our lives as a whole, cannot be overstated. You can download a high resolution version of this texture and a matching bump map or CAD hatch (compatible with AutoCAD and Revit) using Architextures Create with a Pro Subscription.Fabrics – A focal point of design, a challenge for 3D visualization It can be used as a SketchUp texture, Revit material or imported into Photoshop for use in 2D illustrations. This image is seamless, meaning it can be tiled repeatedly for use in architectural drawings and 3D models. This burlap fabric is excellent for use in domestic, low traffic environments to create calm, relaxing, open feeling spaces, bringing a handcrafted, natural, biophilic touch to the rooms in which it is specified. Overexposure to sunlight can cause some bleaching, meaning it shouldn’t be exposed to direct, sustained sunlight, requiring a gentle coated during the manufacturing process to prevent fading or bleaching. Burlap does however prove fairly resistant to spillages, stains, cleaning detergents and fluids when treated correctly. Burlap’s strong, durable characteristics and bright, airy, natural colouring make it popular for rugs and soft furniture coverings, although it can feel rather coarse, dry and irritating against skin. This burlap texture has an attractive natural, pale, white-grey sandy wash with a tight, intense weave pattern. It can also be bound or braided for use on sandals, bags, hats and other fashion items, while the raw fibres can be used to make paper. Its strength and flexibility mean it can be used to create durable fabrics with limited movement or differentiation under stress. It can be dyed and woven into an array of finishing patterns, while being water tight and low maintenance. Burlap can even be used as wall paper and as pots for young plants as they are able to hold soil and water, while expanding to accommodate their growing roots. First used in India hundreds of years ago to make rope and basic building or clothing materials with canvas-like properties, it was brought to popularity when English colonialists imported jute plants from India to Scotland at the end of the 18th century, where it was milled, spun into yarn and woven together to create a perfunctory, sturdy fabric which can be used for curtains, aprons, shopping bags, lamp shades, upholstering for chairs and sofas, or as screens, room dividers, baskets and a multitude of domestic items such as dining placemats. The thick and heavy fibres are excellent for constructing heavy duty sacks and bags for storing coffee, flour and foods such as potatoes and nuts, providing durability, resistance to wear and tear during transport and preventing moisture ingress while maintaining consistent conditions to preserve the contents during long periods of storage. The image represents a physical area of 599 x 626 mm (23.6 x 24.6 inches) in total.īurlap, or Hessian as it’s known in the UK, Australia and parts of Europe, or Crocus in Jamaica, is a fabric constructed from natural materials such as sisal or jute.
