Scene setting
Where the sky meets the sea furnishings at The Poynton in Takapuna feature durable Warwick Fabrics textiles, in colours that reflect the proximity to the beach
Visual continuity enhances the inviting ambience of the communal areas at The Poynton. Keeping to a seaside colour palette, interior designer Sue Hudson specified a variety of commercial-grade textiles from Warwick Fabrics, including draperies and upholstery fabrics.
"Warwick Fabrics has a particularly extensive range of commercial, heavy-duty textiles well suited to hospitality areas, such as the residents' lounge," she says. "The price point was also a consideration these fabrics provide maximum value for money."
Hudson specified Oxford fabric in the colour Pacific for the dining chairs. This low-maintenance fabric features a Tritan backing, which ensures it is flame retardant, waterproof and antimicrobial.
Chairs and sofas in the main lounge are upholstered in a number of complementary fabrics, including Collins Stripe in Pebble, and Banjo Bluestone chenille, which has a two-tone, textural weave. Drapes are in Shantung Maize.
Karen Hatton, Warwick Fabrics commercial sales manager, says the company has introduced a number of textile initiatives for the healthcare industry in the past five years, and will shortly release a third collection.
"The healthcare and retirement village sectors are growing rapidly, and we are expanding our collections of textiles specifically tailored to this market."
