Product Spotlight – Perennials
We shine the spotlight on Perennials Fabrics’ luxury outdoor furnishings and their exquisite textiles and exceptional designs
Perennials Fabrics is now showcasing its rich history of producing luxurious fabrics in its Dubai showroom.
The founder of the brand, David Sutherland, began his career in the furniture business in 1977 with a showroom in Houston, USA. Sutherland wanted to reimagine luxury outdoor furnishings and, in his search, found a creative ally in his wife – Ann Sutherland. Her innate sense of good design and her understanding of art and fabrics paved the way for the founding of Perennials Fabrics in 1997. The duo directed and developed the brand by employing skilled artisans. Perennials has undergone a long journey, from producing 30 fabrics daily to 900+ today, along with rugs.
The fabrics were designed to withstand the elements without compromising on style, and as a result earned the brand accolades from design enthusiasts and industry professionals alike. Beyond their signature fabrics, Perennials also offers an exquisite range of rugs and outdoor furniture – all meticulously crafted with the same commitment to quality and aesthetics. This comprehensive array of products allows customers to create cohesive and captivating outdoor spaces that exude sophistication and comfort.
