Holiday Deadlines

You knew it was coming, you probably even mentioned it to your coworkers once or twice this summer and now it’s only 14 weeks until Thanksgiving… and by next Monday, it will be 13 weeks until Thanksgiving.

After subtracting time for client approval, client payment, sending out the PO, getting the COM shipped and calculating transportation time from the factory to Seattle that doesn’t leave much elbow room for production.

A. Rudin Order Deadline Thanksgiving: 02 September 2011 Complete order details and COM are required.  Christmas: 16 September 2011

Portland

It’s always relaxing to visit Portland and hang out on the West side rediscovering the SW blocks and checking in on a regentrified NW quadrant of the city including the beautiful Pearl District.

Portland has done such a great job of co-mingling residential properties along with shopping, eating and parks.  Walking through this section is relaxing and so comfortable.  It is always a pleasure to call on design firms and architects here, it’s more like sight seeing rather than work.

Cheers to Portland's Architecture and Design community.  You have created some of the most livable neighborhoods in the country.

A. Rudin’s Quick Ship Program

The holidays are coming fast up on us, as soon as Memorial Day is over it seems like Christmas is bearing down on all of us hard.

A. Rudin has implemented a Quick Ship program this year to help alleviate a little bit of the stress. 

Send us your order along with all details needed for production and be sure your fabric is in stock, shipped and backed properly for production and let us do the rest.

Not every style is available for Quick Ship so be sure to check the website or call Trammell-Gagne and talk to your sales representative directly.  We are happy to help you and your clients prepare for a wonderful holiday season.

Creation Baumann celebrates 125 years in business

Posted on Monday, March 14, 2011.

This year marks the anniversary of textile innovator Création Baumann, a fourth-generation, family owned company known for its innovative textiles and eco-friendly production and products.
In 1886 Friedrich Baumann and Albert Brand founded “Brand & Baumann” for the manufacture and distribution of linen goods. After going their separate ways at the start of the 20th century, Friedrich Baumann set up his own business which was taken on by his sons Willy and Fritz in 1930.

After the Second World War, the enterprise was split into two; an upholstery fabric manufacturing plant and a linen weaving mill. Fritz Baumann took charge of the linen weaving mill, which developed into the trademark “Création Baumann”. In 1951 the enterprise, which was also producing curtain fabrics, relocated to Langenthal, Switzerland—the company's current headquarters.

Since 2000, the management has been in the hands of CEO Philippe Baumann, a fourth generation member of the Baumann family. Today Création Baumann has a staff of 260 people, 9 subsidiaries, 40 representations worldwide and company showrooms in New York, Paris, Tokyo and London. The company boasts an excess of 6,000 items for window treatments, upholstery, fabric panels, vertical blinds and roller blinds are available.

“My family, myself and the entire company are very proud to have reached our 125th year as a family owned company. We have been able to stay true to our original vision of producing sustainable, innovative and beautiful fabrics. We look forward to many more years of the same and extend a special thank you to our clients and all who have been involved in our success,“ said Baumann.

Because of this attention to specialized testing Création Baumann counts among their hospitality and cultural clients the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Smithsonian Institute, Wynn Hotels, the British Museum in London the Paul Klee museum in Bern, the Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo and the Takano Yuri Cohaku Spa in Tokyo.

From an article on www.selectism.com

Octopus Chair

14 January 2011

Selectism - octo-chair-01-curatedmag

Curated keeps on turning us onto stuff, here’s another one:

The Animal Chair collection constitutes a diverse range of species, from mammals to reptiles, and even including insects. Each creation retains the animal’s natural vitality whilst being totally biological accurate in their appearance. This collection is homage to these animals and the whole animal kingdom which inhabits our planet, as an attempt to reflect and capture the beauty of nature in each living thing.

Octopus Book: the Octopus Chair is the first piece of the Animal Chair collection, and it establishes a base and point of departure for the pieces to come.

The Spanish designer will take on lions, wales, and walrus in the near future.

FABRIC! Sinfonia CS from Creation Baumann


Sinfonia CS has numbered amongst the most popular curtain fabrics for the last thirty years or so and is a real classic. Thanks to a new, environmentally sustainable dye method, the experts from Langenthal succeeded in giving the classic an even softer feel that lends it wonderfully flowing drape properties. The Collection has been extended to include fresh, elegant and natural colours which can be combined with graphic and organic print designs. All fabrics are over 118" wide.
