How does Source4Style work?
When you register as a buyer on our platform, you are one step closer to sourcing the best material for your collection. Once you are registered, you simply browse or search through a comprehensive and curated selection of materials. You can do so by scrolling through featured textile images; searching by material category (e.g., Silk, Cotton, rPET); typing in descriptive search terms (e.g., India, silk blend, red); or by using our dynamic parametric search. We want to make finding materials as easy as possible for you. Each material you see is available to purchase as a swatch, provided it is in stock. If it is in stock, you can do the following: “Add to Virtual Swatchbook” (read: your wishlist) and “Buy a Sample” (read: have a swatch mailed to your home or office usually within 3-5 business days). You can also purchase a swatch or swatchbook, depending on what is offered, directly from your Virtual Swatchbook. Source4Style is in Public Beta from October 4, 2010 until May 1, 2011, mea
