Traditional upholstery reimagined as modern furniture design1960 Atwood Avenue, Madison, WI
The Straight Thread is a furniture workshop run by a European-trained traditional upholsterer, working under the Straight Thread Chair Co. name. The work reimagines eighteenth-century upholstery techniques in a modern American setting, with chairs and furniture designed to show the structure of the craft.
The design approach leaves foundational elements visible. Stitching that serves a structural purpose becomes decorative, and plain upholsterer's tacks are left exposed to add a sense of purpose. The goal is to help clients see the beauty of traditional upholstery. The workshop is at 1960 Atwood Avenue in Madison, Wisconsin.
