The “A Sideways Glance” exhibit at Musée des Tissus et des Art Décoratifs in Lyon takes the neo-modernist furniture of acclaimed company Moroso and reupholsters it in fabrics inspired by wallpaper patterns found elsewhere in the museum. The brocade is woven with illustrated scenes from the 18th century, revisiting age-old ideas and modernizing them in a very interesting way.
