The softer side of millwork: upholstery

Benches, banquettes and fabric surfaces

Benches, banquette seating and fabric wall finishes are all part of the commercial millwork category (06). And why not? Fabrics and other soft finishes are a visible, tangible part of any building interior, much like cabinets and wall panels. “Upholstery is very welcoming – you can sit on it and touch it – and the textures and colors can really accentuate other finish work. Soft goods fit nicely within our commercial millwork product line” says David Wright, Director of Operations at Elements Manufacturing.

In recent years, Elements Manufacturing has installed custom soft goods in break rooms, common areas, offices and lobbies. There’s a quick video at the bottom of this page that shows a long window seat banquette going in. It looks like a cabinet covered in cushions and beautiful material! Very inviting.
