Fabric of the South - weaving relationships rooted in history

An internationally acclaimed technical fabric manufacturer reclaims part of their historic brick manufacturing facility in the American South to showcase their innovative and technically advanced fabrics. The new home of showrooms, meeting spaces and conference facilities exists to showcase and build relationships with large corporate clients and innovative manufacturing companies working with their products.

The importance of heat, light, and the expression of high-tech materials against the historic backdrop of the operating factory becomes an opportunity to show clients all sides - innovation, science, and hard work - of the company.

Locally manufactured seating flatters the industrial aesthetic of the renovated factory. Double-height windows and steel stairs with polished concrete floors add a level of sophistication to the working surfaces.
