We are ILIV

ILIV is an independently owned British fabric design house, creating distinctive fabrics for homes, commercial spaces and interior projects around the world.

Based in Lancashire, at the heart of Britain's textile heritage, we bring almost 40 years of experience and a genuine love of pattern, colour and design to every collection.

Our in-house studio creates original prints, weaves and textures, drawing inspiration from the world around us, British decorative history, cultural and artistic traditions, our own archives and collaborations with talented designers. 

We bring these influences together through confident colour, thoughtful design and fabrics with a character that feels unmistakably ILIV.

Designed in Britain

Founded in 1987 as part of the SMD Group, ILIV has grown from its Lancashire roots into an established British interior fabric brand with an international reach.

British decorative design has a rich history, shaped by different cultures, artistic movements and traditions from around the world. We love exploring these connections, rediscovering designs from the past and finding fresh ways to interpret them for today's interiors.

From the beauty of nature to an antique textile, an archive discovery or an artist's individual style, every collection has its own inspiration and story.

 

Fabrics for Every Interior

Our collections embrace a wide variety of styles, from decorative florals and archive-inspired prints to contemporary geometrics, elegant weaves, versatile plains and layered textures. 

Alongside our decorative collections, we develop upholstery and performance fabrics, combining distinctive design with the technical requirements of commercial interiors.

One of our strengths is bringing together the creativity of residential design with the practical demands of commercial spaces, without compromising on character or performance.

This breadth allows us to support designers, retailers, specifiers and commercial clients across homes, hospitality, healthcare, workplaces and leisure environments.

Our Shared Perspective

We believe beautiful interiors begin with inspired design and the people who bring it to life.

For us, product and people are inseparable. Our collections are created with care, but brought to life through our studio, sales team, customer service, sampling, partners and the conversations we have with customers every day.

We enjoy sharing ideas, exploring different fabric combinations and helping customers find the right designs for their projects.

It's this connection between creativity, expertise and personal relationships that helps our customers create interiors with confidence, individuality and lasting appeal.

 

 

Better for Tomorrow

Creating more beautiful interiors should go hand in hand with creating a more responsible future.

As a Planet Mark certified business, we're committed to measuring and reducing our environmental impact, improving the materials and processes behind our collections, and working with partners who share our commitment to better practices.

Our journey is ongoing, but our intention is clear: to create fabrics with care and consideration for the people and places they touch.
