About the blanket
iMPeRF art blankets are made from 100% cotton. Featuring patterns created through jacquard weaving, they offer a soft, gentle feel against the skin. As they contain no synthetic fibers, they are resistant to static electricity, ensuring comfortable use even during dry seasons.
It is available in two sizes: Medium (130 x 160 cm, approx. 1 kg) and Large (160 x 200 cm, approx. 1.5 kg). The Medium size is ideal for use on a sofa or as a lap throw, while the Large size is perfect as a bed cover or sofa cover. Thanks to its optimal weight, it stays securely in place and does not easily slip off.
Yes, it is reversible. By taking advantage of the characteristics of jacquard weaving, you can enjoy a different look on each side. With a design that is beautiful on both the front and back, you can switch between sides to suit your mood or interior décor.
Yes, it's suitable for all seasons. The 100% cotton material offers an excellent balance of breathability and warmth, keeping you cool in spring and summer, and warm in autumn and winter. In winter, you can layer it with a blanket for extra warmth.
Jacquard weaving is a technique that creates patterns by combining threads and weaving methods. Unlike printing, which applies patterns to the surface of the fabric, jacquard weaving weaves the patterns directly into the material, allowing you to enjoy the unique texture and appearance of the fabric itself.
iMPeRF blankets are made from 100% cotton jacquard weave and are reversible, offering different looks on each side.
Comparison and Selection
For use as a lap blanket or draped over a portion of a sofa, size M is recommended, while size L is suitable for covering a wider area.
Size M: 130×160cm, approximately 1kg
Ideal for use as a lap blanket, for naps, or draped over the backrest or armrest of a sofa.
Size L: 160×200cm, approximately 1.5kg
Ideal for generously draping over a large sofa or for use as a foot throw at the end of a bed.
Whether the blanket can cover an entire piece of furniture depends on the furniture's dimensions and how it is draped. Before purchasing, please measure the width and depth of the area you wish to cover, as well as the desired overhang length, and compare these measurements with the blanket's dimensions to make your selection.
This varies depending on the size and shape of your sofa.
If you only want to cover the seat, measure the width and depth of the seat. If you want to drape it from the backrest to the seat, measure the length that covers that area. If you want it to hang over the armrests or the front, you will need to include that length as well.
The M size is 130 x 160 cm, and the L size is 160 x 200 cm. If the area you want to cover exceeds these dimensions, we recommend using it to cover only a part of the sofa, such as one side or the backrest.
Please choose according to your room's interior. For a minimalist space, abstract designs such as the Flow series (Green Flow, Navy Flow, Pink Flow, Black Flow) will blend in well. For creating a unique space, distinctive designs like "Astronaut Flower," "Glitch," and "Distorted Check" will serve as excellent accents.

Regarding art blankets
Art blankets are interior items that incorporate artworks into their design. Unlike art that hangs on a wall, art blankets allow you to introduce art into a space simply by draping them over a sofa or bed. At iMPeRF, we use 100% cotton jacquard weaving to achieve both practicality and artistic appeal.
It can be used in a variety of ways, such as draped over a sofa, as a bedspread, as a tablecloth, or laid on the floor as a rug. It can also be hung on the wall like a tapestry. Since it has a reversible design, you can change the atmosphere of the space simply by flipping it over.
Yes, it's one of the easiest ways to incorporate art into your daily life. There's no need to drill holes in the wall; simply drape it over your sofa or bed to change the room's ambiance. Many iMPeRF blankets feature designs that blend well with neutral interiors, making them an excellent match for white walls, linen, and wood-grained spaces.
