1996 IIDA Product Design Competition: APEX AwardBars is a bold stripe pattern inspired by the strikingly modern looking quilts made by the Ohio and Pennsylvania Amish. Amish quilts are well known for their sophisticated colors and clearly defined patterns. Bars is woven in 100% Avora FR polyester yarns. This fiber is well known for its flame-resistant properties and overall durability and is therefore appropriate for use in hospitality, healthcare and corporate facilities that require high performance fabrics. Bars has been designed with an innovative bouclé yarn, giving it tremendous esthetic appeal, so it is eminently well suited for any environment that needs a fabric with bold pattern and unique color combination.
