Our guest blogger this week is Kekela Ah-Ho, popular sales consultant at the Robert Allen | Beacon Hill showroom in Los Angeles with over twelve years of industry experience. We asked Kekela to style and upholster the chair below with fabrics from the new Modern Library collection. Read below to see the look that Kekela created- modern, elegant, and perfect for the California home aesthetic.

The design community in Los Angeles is composed of traditional, transitional, modern and eclectic elements. The Robert Allen Fenway chair has a unique curved frame that would work well in a variety of environments. The original fabric on the chair was Robert Allen Cotton Loop/ Brindle, which added texture and a soft hand. The new Modern Library fabrics selected enhanced the texture, highlighted the movement of the chair frame and added sparkle.
The outside of the chair is upholstered in Kidskin/Frost a pearlized faux leather which adds sheen, texture and durability. The inside of the chair is upholstered in Soft Blanket/Twine a heathered woven texture that adds visual depth and interest. Last, the kidney cushion in Twist Around/Magenta adds a pop of color. A deep magenta floral outlined with metallic pewter details. The perfect combination of modern fabrics and transitional furniture for a sophisticated Los Angeles lifestyle.
