Apartment Therapy Post



We are very pleased to welcome devoted readers of Apartment Therapy to Modern Fabrics!

Modern Fabrics was recently featured on AT, a website and community devoted to well designed and crafted interior environments.

    “Employing fabric, like paint, is one of the easiest ways to dramatically change the look and feel of a space. Unfortunately the textile industry has one of the worst eco-profiles of all the houseware industries. Finding secondhand fabrics in any sizable yardage is difficult at best. Thankfully, a couple in North Carolina started a brilliant business to bring you reclaimed high-end designer fabrics at low-end prices…”

If you are not yet acquainted with Apartment Therapy, it will soon become your resource for creating smart, wonderful spaces. Below is Apartment Therapy’s mission which we find very refreshing!


The Apartment Therapy Mission:

Helping people make their homes more beautiful, organized and healthy by connecting them to a wealth of resources, ideas and community online.
What We Believe

A calm, healthy, beautiful home is a necessary foundation for happiness and success in the world.

Creating this home doesn’t require large amounts of money or space. It requires inspiration, connection to resources and motivation to do something about it.

The basic elements of good home design can be learned and achieved by all.

Simplicity and luxury are not mutually exclusive.

Our Goal:

To connect people to the resources they need to improve their homes, while reducing their reliance on stuff.
