Discover Jessica Boyer Interiors

Jessica Boyer founded her own design studio in 2018. She knew she wanted to specialise in crafting very personal, unique interiors for her clients. She has a knack for finding just the right details to make her interiors shine, and it shows in every finished space.

In fact, she custom makes most of the furniture she uses in her projects, which allows her to experiment with different materials and finishes.

Designing interiors for busy people can be challenging

As a designer, Jessica Boyer understands that interior design involves a careful balancing act of client needs with overall experience of a space. The solution must be comfortable, practical yet stylish—and it should also feel like home.

Let's explore how Jessica Boyer pulls all of this off, with a little help from FibreGuard and our performance upholstery fabrics.

The challenge: contemporary style meets real life spills

As we mentioned, Jessica Boyer Interiors uses our fabrics in most of her design projects, and does colour play a role? Of course! Her use of colour in interior design is very special, creating warm, contemporary spaces in muted colour palettes. They even have a touch of eclecticism to give each interior its own special power. We particularly love this elegant living room where warm, dove grey walls are paired with white sofas. It boasts custom-made swivel chairs, upholstered in our luxurious velvet.

Isn't light-coloured upholstery hard to clean?

This room is successful because it’s based on a comfortable neutral colour scheme. A good designer knows that these more gentle shades go a long way towards creating a calming atmosphere, even in busy family homes.

However, there's a huge misconception out there that lighter upholstery colours just aren't practical in residential projects. It makes sense: accidental spills, forgotten stains: a designer's worst nightmare.

FibreGuard fabrics are a game-changing solution for designers who want to use a more delicate colour palette but worry about long-term maintenance and durability. Our luxury-soft upholstery fabrics are made from long-lasting materials that also make for easy cleaning.
