Slipcovers offer many excellent opportunities for introducing color and pleasing design into a room that would otherwise appear dull and cheerless. They add an informal atmosphere in either summer or winter months and also serve for re-covering shabby or uninteresting furniture that does not harmonize with the other decorations. Slipcovers are valu¬able, also, for the protection of furniture.
There are two types of slipcovers to be taken into consideration: the temporary ones used during the summer months, and the ones that form part of the permanent decorative scheme of a room. The latter may properly be used throughout the year provided they are well-tailored and fit snugly over the furniture, and provided the material harmonizes with the decorations already existing in a room.
When choosing material for slipcovers, the character of the room should be considered, as well as the type of the chair or Sofa to be cov¬ered. In general, so far as the pattern is concerned, the same principles should be applied as when selecting any other type of upholstery material. The laws of harmony and contract should be considered.See Also The Furniture Designer:The furniture designer is well known, but the architect will be a new acquaintance to most people.
