It particularly stands out for its new mélange expression and meticulously nuanced colour blends. Atlas was created to deliver a pioneering mélange look that compliments the existing mélanges in the Kvadrat collection. Margrethe Odgaard has achieved this with a construction that unites two different coloured yarns – each of which combines two colours – in the warp and the weft. With Atlas, unlike other mélanges, the colours are not blended in the fibres. Instead they are expressed, pattern-like, through the structure of the material. As a result, the textile offers exceptional colour intensity and intricate colour details. Margrethe Odgaard: “When working on the textile’s palette, we chose 37 out of 1216 possible colourways. Atlas reminds me of small topographic maps describing a rich, sensuous and vibrating world of nuances.” Furthermore, Atlas is also flexible. As it moulds to the curves of furniture so well, it greatly simplifies the process of upholstering edges. Atlas derives its name from the diverse different colours that can be found on the maps contained in an Atlas. Fittingly, the extensive colour-scale for the textile ranges from bright sorbet tones and rich neutral shades to almost black nuances, which incorporate hints of colour. Margrethe Odgaard combined courageous, unconventional hues when developing the colourways. These allow for harmonious expressions, as well as the emergence of eye-catching sparks of colour. Due to the variety of the palette, Atlas is ideal for creating dynamic combinations with other textiles, especially mélanges. It is suitable for contract environments and private spaces alike. ![Atlas P 1310 Co571 W30](https://www.stylepark.com/assets/transformations/articles/_697xAUTO_fit_center-center_90_none/Atlas_P_1310_CO571_W30_190212_121341.jpg) - Request a quote - [Manufacturer's Product-Info](https://www.kvadrat.dk/en/products/upholstery/1310-atlas) - [Manufacturer's website](http://www.kvadrat.dk) - [All products by Kvadrat @ Stylepark](https://www.stylepark.com/en/products/manufacturer/kvadrat) - [Kvadrat @ Stylepark](https://www.stylepark.com/en/manufacturer/kvadrat) Kvadrat Related Articles [DESIGN Shading with Added Benefits 1/16/2024 With its High Performance Textiles, Kvadrat is introducing a new product category: Metallised roller blind textiles that insulate and cool, provide shade and are see-through.](https://www.stylepark.com/en/news/kavadrat-high-performance-textiles-metallised-fabrics-blinds-stylepark-magazine) [AWARD NOMINATION Kvadrat 2023: SPORT 11/21/2023 The new upholstery fabric by Patricia Urquiola for Kvadrat is made from polyester and offers a special look and feel.](https://www.stylepark.com/en/news/kvadrat-2023-sport-patricia-urquiola-textile-tide-styleparkmagazine) [FEATURED Working with a View 5/3/2021 Taking their inspiration from “rough meets warm”, roller-blind solutions by Kvadrat Shade and textiles by Kvadrat ensure a pleasant atmosphere in the Fellow Workspace in Aarhus.](https://www.stylepark.com/en/news/kvadrat-shade-blinds-companyons-fellow-workspace-aarhus) [FEATURED The extra at the window 4/13/2021 With its first collection, Kvadrat Shade presents a system for high-quality roller blind solutions that can add visual, acoustic and thermal value to any room.](https://www.stylepark.com/en/news/kvadrat-shade-bouroullec) [INTERVIEWS Three questions to: Patricia Urquiola 12/1/2020 Patricia Urquiola has designed three new textiles for Kvadrat: The faux-uni upholstery fabrics "Relate" and "Reflect" and the curtain fabric "Lumo" in woven twill, which offers a particularly dense quality.
