Take note: Menswear fabrics in the form of woolen check, Harris tweed, and houndstooth more are making their way from London's Savile Row into the modern home. From the newly opened Rivertown Lodge in Hudson to the home of Margaret Howell (who made Irish tweed cool again), here are three examples of menswear as home fabrics and several ways to get the look at home.
Above: A quick way to upholstery: furniture covered in wool blankets and topped with tweed pillows from House Call: An Artist's Home in Shoreditch.
Above: A vintage chair sourced on eBay is reupholstered in yellow wool and black-and-white check fabric from A Hotel with a Sense of Place: Rivertown Lodge in Hudson, NY.
Above: A chair upholstered in rust-colored herringbone wool at Margaret Howell's house on the Suffolk coast from the Japanese book Margaret Howell Houses, available through eBay.
