Skopos Fabrics is expanding Skopos Studio, an evolving library of printed fabric designs, with 16 new base cloths, combining creativity, sustainability, and UK production…
Skopos Studio is a design library concept developed to provide a comprehensive resource for sourcing new printed design ideas.
As an ever-growing library, the Skopos design team are always working on the next ‘big thing’, to provide more ideas for up-coming projects, and inspiration for refurbishment schemes. Skopos Studio supports and strengthens the brand’s full printed fabric offer, with designs available on a large choice of flame-retardant base-cloths, for upholstery, drapery, cushions and blinds. New base-cloth qualities have also recently been added to the offer with new velvets and textured upholsteries part of the 16 cloths available.

Over 50 years of design experience shines through in the Studio binder, with ideas presented in categories including Geometrics, Florals, Textures, Stripes and Checks. Each design is awarded equal status, rather than presenting a traditional, co-ordinating collection with a lead or hero design. Through this concept Skopos are looking to provide specifiers with the tools to determine how to bring things together.
New designs are launched each quarter, appearing initially on the website, with Studio binders displaying physical cards of the offer.
Designs in Skopos Studio have been developed to work hand in hand with the brand’s accent collections and upholsteries for a cross-section of projects. If a designer requires something unique, the Bespoke service can offer custom colour options for a minimum meterage.

The latest designs to emerge from the Studio include Hartwell; an extravagant maximalist floral, Porto; a neat geometric ditsy design, Bracken; a distressed fern perfect for furniture or drapes and Sungai; a dramatic wave with an African influence.
