While designing the bold, large-scale geometric pattern of upholstery textile Marquee, KnollTextiles creative director Dorothy Cosonas was inspired by the work of late American artist and designer Vera Neumann. The acrylic-backed, medium-to-heavyweight fabric comprises 60% cotton, 20% post-consumer recycled polyester, and 16% polyester. Available in seven colorways, including Breeze (shown), Marquee is one of the 17 fabrics in KnollTextiles’ Milestone Collection. knolltextiles.com
