The Common Thread Collection by Bernhardt Textiles

A Fusion of Color, Geometry, and Texture

Bernhardt Textiles is delighted to unveil the Common Thread Collection, a celebration of artistry and geometry in fabric design.

This thoughtfully curated selection showcases vibrant colors, geometric patterns, and diverse textures, delivering a truly elevated design experience. Anchored by a cohesive diagonal design motif, the collection comprises four distinctive fabrics-each named for its defining shape-blending performance, sustainability, and timeless aesthetics.

The Common Thread Collection seamlessly integrates two performance and two sustainable fabrics, offering a dynamic palette ranging from earthy lichen greens to bold firecracker reds. These textiles are ideal for upholstery and vertical application, providing both function and style.

Introducing the Fabrics

• Dotted: A sustainable choice with timeless appeal, Dotted features a two-colored small dot mélange that exudes visual texture. Made from 100% recyclable New Zealand wool, this fabric is naturally stain-resistant and biodegradable. It is available in nine rich colorways and meets rigorous environmental standards, including SCS Indoor Advantage Gold and OEKO-TEX certifications.

• Knot: This elegant solid showcases a modern aesthetic with a palette of 17 fashion-inspired colors. Crafted from 83% recycled polyester, Knot offers a luxurious hand feel and a subtle sheen, making it both sustainable and stylish.

• Prism: A high-performance textile with a three-dimensional textured Jacquard weave, Prism features trendy blue and green tones among its 12 colorways. Bleach-cleanable and durable, this 100% polyester fabric balances natural fiber aesthetics with modern practicality.

• Rhombus: Defined by its hand-drawn diagonal lines, Rhombus delivers high performance at a budget-friendly price. Available in 13 versatile hues, this bleach-cleanable fabric combines acrylic, nylon, and polyester for exceptional durability.

Bernhardt Textiles prioritizes eco-friendly practices. The sustainable fabrics in this collection feature rapidly renewable materials and recycled content and are free from harmful chemicals, ensuring a lighter environmental footprint. The Common Thread Collection is a testament to the brand’s dedication to merging beautiful design with sustainable practices, creating textiles that are as enduring as they are beautiful.
