Decorating ideas: toile fabric

Toile isn't just about nostalgia and whimsy. Used in the right coloration, in the right room, and in the right way, it can actually elevate a space's sophistication.

Tip: Used as a wall covering, a black-on-crème toile complements the elegance of a room's ebony floor and white woodwork. It completes the graphic effect of the contrasting neutrals, but with a slight, pleasing softening. This colorway's neutrality makes it an ideal candidate for public rooms such as the living and dining spaces.
