The Futuro colour story

 

Inspired by the luxury and craftsmanship of the seat coverings in Italian sports cars, Futuro is available in a range of warm, natural tones.

“What you'll notice with Futuro is the very natural colours,” says Sebastian Nash, KING Textile and Leather Development Manager. “We’ve achieved that by looking at the natural colours of our iconic leathers and replicating the exact colours and dye saturation.”

With 10 colourways to choose from, Futuro ranges from the rich, warm colours, such as Chestnut, Chocolate and Tan, to contemporary Silver or bold Sago or Noir. Each shade pairs back with finished leathers to add depth in styling through texture.

“If you have a sofa and a chair combination, you can choose a matching colour for each but add interest with different textures,” explains Sebastian. “There’s the sheen of the leather and then the more flat effect of the Futuro.”

The classic colour palette creates the ideal base for your styling and the option to introduce other colours and textures from the KING fabric collection.

Designed and developed for performance

 

Futuro is made from a heavy commercial grade microfibre that is as durable and stain resistant as it is luxurious and soft. The double cloth weave construction is the perfect fabric for KingGuard+.

“Unlike suede that can stain very easily, Futuro is incredibly family friendly,” says Sebastian. “It’s the perfect product for young families, especially when paired with KingGuard+ protection. This added layer of protection makes the fabric water and oil resistant so liquids just bead off the surface.”

 

Easy to clean, Futuro is a great option for families and pets.

 

It’s the same story for pets. Pet hair sits on the surface of the fabric and is easily vacuumed off.

The dense weave of the fabric makes it easy to clean. Sebastian recommends cleaning the whole area when spot cleaning to avoid watermarks. It’s also best to clean stains as soon as they occur. King-Care® cleaning products can help to extend the life of your furniture, keeping it in excellent condition.

“You can easily clean it once every few months for a fresh clean look. It’s probably one of the best products you can use if you have a pet. It’s such a flat textile that seems to hide marks quite well.”

 

 

A conscious choice, Futuro is a vegan suede that effortlessly balances durability and style.

 

Conscious without compromise

 

Futuro was also developed with conscious customers in mind, those who want the quality and durability of KING but choose not to buy animal-based products. 

This is an option without compromise that delivers in every sense of the word.

“Unlike suede or leather, this product isn’t made from hides,” explains Sebastian. “It’s a synthetic woven fabric that’s suitable for vegans. This gives you access to a wonderful natural suede look and feel in traditional suede and leather colours.”

That’s one of the truly exceptional features of Futuro, how it so comfortably mimics the properties of suede and the colours of leather.

 

Durable and easy to clean, Futuro is a great choice for high traffic areas.

 

Futuro in action

 

Suitable for all soft furnishings across the KING range, Futuro performs particularly well in high traffic areas. Futuro on the office chairs or the family room sofa will hold its own against the stresses of regular use.

If you’re considering furniture with moving parts, such as the King Cloud V or ReoGrand Sofa Bed, Sebastian says that Futuro is a particularly good fabric choice. As a double face fabric, Futuro forms round the furniture with a highly tailored finish. And the smooth finish of the textile ensures it doesn’t catch on itself as the furniture moves. 

You can confidently choose Futuro knowing that it’s been designed for durability, wear and with a soft hand and leather feel look. The timeless colours offer longevity, as does the longwearing nature of the fabric to ensure you will enjoy your sofa for many, many years to come.

You can experience Futuro by visiting a KING Showroom or ordering swatches. Images can’t share the true depth of the colours in the range or the soft textural feel.
