Default Reupholstering your furniture to look like the Tube

Came across this the other day. London Underground fabric available by the metre if you want to redo a chair or couch in the house. From the London Transit museum.

Would be missing the smell of the subway though.

It would be minus the dust and dirt which came out of it, if you sat down too hard.

They do some good stuff. I got a London routemaster Moquette scarf a few years back. They were also selling original overhead luggage racks from the Metropolitan line a while back. Think it's just repro now.

If you want the smell you'll need a pack of Rothmans and someone to pee on the seat.
