Kirk Nix for Robert Allen Contract: One Ten West

Platinum Award
Following a successful first collaboration, Robert Allen Contract has reteamed with celebrated hospitality designer Kirk Nix of KNA Design for One Ten West. The line makes an impact with its lush color story, as palettes of Azzura-Cerulean-Citron, Passion-Papaya, Crimson-Honey, and Heartthrob-Brilliant radiate West Coast cool and Hollywood glamour. Furthermore, one third of the line’s textiles meet standards for applications in cruise ships, including printed velvet Trevira CS, representing a new technology for this construction. To conceptualize the collection, Nix crafted a fantasy world following an exotic cast of characters as they ride the roller coaster of life in Los Angeles.Nix explains, “One Ten West is a fabric line dedicated to those who live relentlessly, unabashedly, and defiantly follow their dreams to the edge of the sunset. It is an expressive, larger than life attitude, showcasing the ‘living the dream’ aesthetic that makes hospitality settings seduce and sparkle.”This highly styled collection of textiles puts the focus on fashion, with designs suitable for hotels, spas, resorts, retail environments, and entertainment venues. The patterns represent a range of scale, from a dramatic, large-scale drapery sheer with “wow” to a classically usable checkerboard upholstery. One Ten West’s impressive availability of constructions is also notable. The line features a Sunbrella Contract indoor/outdoor pattern, All In Check, which provides a playful print with beautiful, durable color for sun-heavy settings. Other constructions include an epingle pile fabric and a luxurious faille solid. In a statement-making move, one third of One Ten West meets the standards for use on cruise chips, including the collection’s leading design Vapor Caper, featuring an elegant and modern abstract smoke motif. This portion also contains two digitally printed designs on Trevira CS multi-purpose velvet constructions. The printing process used for these fabrics represents a new technology for pile fabrics, and they are suitable for drapery, bedding, or upholstery and meet the standards for cruise use.Robert Allen Contract Design Director Jane Riback elaborates, “Robert Allen Contract has a successful history working with cruise lines, but these designs showcase a bold new side often not found in fabrics applicable for those settings. We’re excited to be able to liven them up with Kirk’s vibrant vision.”The edgy collection also displays a dynamic color palette. Bold oranges and citrons balance classic favorites like rust and grey, offering options for designers looking to push the design boundaries or create a timeless, neutral environment.
