An exceptionally well written and researched book for today’s designers. A comprehensive yet practical tool with enduring qualities that fills a void and speaks to the role and use of fabric for residential, commercial, and travel interiors.

I wish I had a book like this when I was attending design school! Often, the only way we really learn about fabric production, styling, how to source products, what professional interior designers demand, etc. is through actually getting a job and working hard to learn much of what we should have gotten in class.
Fabric for the Designed Interior provides all the information in a beautifully visual way that allows a person starting out to hit the ground running!

I recently had Dr. Koe speak to my Interior Design and CAD students. He is not only a very dynamic and highly informed speaker but an accomplished writer.
The reason I had Dr. Koe speak to my students is because I examined his new book, Fabric for the Designed Interior and found it to be the BEST text I have ever read! I will be using his text and the extensive support materials for our Finishes class.
