Soft Tweed, Maharam

Inspired by Maharam’s midcentury archive, this textile reflects the era’s use of natural fibers and geometric design.

One benefit of being in business for more than a century is having a large archive from which to draw inspiration. Maharam’s Soft Tweed is based on the sensibilities of the company’s midcentury design. The linen-blend contract textile features thick-and-thin yarns in subtle tonal variations to create a handwoven appearance. It comes in seven colors and has a 54” width. maharam.com
