Textile Tuesday: Blue Skies, Bold Textiles

The New York skies are showing off today — and we’re feeling inspired by every shade of blue!

We’re celebrating with favorites from our Decora 17 Collection— a lineup of high-performance vinyls that meet today’s environmental standards. Think distressed leathers, subtle animal skins, and rich textures — perfect for hospitality guest rooms or common spaces.

We’re also spotlighting blue sky inspired designs from our Portfolio Print Collection, printed on our eco-friendly Greenley base cloth— where beautiful design meets sustainable innovation.

From airy sky blues to deep navies, today’s palette is all about fresh inspiration.

Green Party 🌿

Printing on commercial base cloth just got greener with Greenley! Our Greenley base cloth is crafted with 45% Repreve® post-consumer recycled polyester, making it a stylish and sustainable choice.

At Charles Samelson, we take creativity and quality into our own hands—our in-house artists and proprietary eco friendly printing process allow us to deliver exceptional design at a great price. What will you create today? 🌱🎨

Haute Hotel Thursday: NYC’s Chelsea Hotel, a legacy of art & rebellion.

Since opening in 1884, the Chelsea Hotel has been more than just a place to stay—it’s been a sanctuary for artists, musicians, and writers. Legends like Andy Warhol, Janis Joplin, and Arthur Miller walked its halls, creating and collaborating in an environment unlike any other in NYC. With its history of wild parties, love affairs, and artistic breakthroughs, the Chelsea remains a symbol of counterculture and creativity, now beautifully restored for a new era.

The Chelsea Hotel Reawakens: A New Chapter for an NYC Icon. After years of anticipation, the legendary Chelsea Hotel has officially reopened, blending its storied past with a stunning new design. The renovation, led by Interior Designers Sara Ruffin Costello, Sean MacPherson, and Anda Andrei, carefully preserves the building’s bohemian spirit while introducing luxurious modern touches. Think opulent velvet drapes, vintage chandeliers, richly patterned wallpapers, and restored woodwork—all evoking the creative energy that once made the Chelsea home to icons like Patti Smith, Bob Dylan, and Leonard Cohen.

Will you be visiting the revived Chelsea Hotel?
