Is there a better fabric than Chenille?
October 26th, 2010
It depends, if you are looking for comfort and a very “soft hand” to its touch; then more likely, you will have to look at a Worsted Wool or a Velvet. Now, if you are looking for durability and somehow “soft hand”, I suggest the use of Xorel, with this fabric you will experience extreme durability and abuse resistance like no other. This is a man made fabric used widely in the commercial and corporate interiors. Its content is called Monofilament Polyethelene (Polyethelene is considered on of the cleanest plastics available). The clean-ability, colorfastness and durability are inherent to the yarn and are permanent. I use this fabric to cover not only furniture but also walls, built-in cabinets, etc., the uses tend to be almost infinite.
This fabric is great in a home with pets and children! Sauces, Cranberry juice or even a Merlot spill will be taken care with a brush and mild soaped water, yes, soaped water, even Spray cleaners such as Fantastic or “Carbona” will not damage this fabric.
Although, this wonder of a fabric is not available throughout retailers, only your professional designer or architect can get it for you; it is well worth its price. Remember, it will save you a fortune in replacing the entire fabric from your 98″ long sofa or from your family heirloom chair. It comes in great patterns and hundreds of solid beautiful colors. Also, patterned and metallic looks have been introduced very recently.
Give it a try and remember that you heard it first from me, your designer……Ricardo Ramos

The Glover Park Chair
October 4th, 2010
This chair is sexy, elegant and sophisticated; inspired by the Art Deco movement era. Great for rooms in which a conversational set up is planned or great for a reading room. It has a tight seat and back for ease of maintenance. The nail heads trim gives it a sophisticated look. The price point is great and of course, my upholstery collection is made to order, always the norm with any SR Home Collection.
Thanks for visiting my Blog……….Ricardo
SR Home Collection Arrives
September 28th, 2010
SR Home Collection Arrives!
Welcome to Fall everyone! This is one of my favorite times of year. The weather, the colors and the scents all add up to an amazing re-birth here in Washington. Along with my excitement for this welcome change in seasons, I could not be more proud to announce the arrival of my 2010 SR Home Collection this Fall. In this collection of 8 pieces, my transitional style and tasteful elegance has been brought to life through the classic designs and robust fabric offerings in this year’s collection.
The SR Home Collection includes sofas, chairs, lounges and benches – all of which fit perfectly with most any style of home interior. To create this year’s collection, I drew from the vibrant and eclectic neighborhoods of our home here in Washington, D.C., naming each piece after the great historic sections of the city. I believe that the rich history and the legacy of the city’s great residents lend each piece its own identity.
So please click here and view our furniture gallery, thumb through the fabrics and of course, feel free to place your order request today!
As always, I would love your comments and feedback on the collection, the fabrics and anything else you’d love to report back on.
Have a great week!
