Fabric Padded 010 – Free Seamless PBR Texture

free pbr texture seamless fabric padded sci-fi

Fabric Padded 010 is a free seamless PBR texture of quilted, modern upholstery fabric, featuring defined cushion panels and deep padding depth.

This texture captures the tactile luxury of high-end upholstery and modern furniture design. It represents structured, padded fabric (sometimes called deep-tufting or cushion paneling) used in seating, headboards, and decorative wall panels.

Included Maps

This texture ships with the following PBR maps at 1024 × 1024 px (Patreon Tier 3 unlocks the 4K uncompressed PNG version plus the SBS/SBSAR Substance Designer source files):

  • Color (Albedo) – base diffuse color
  • Normal – surface micro-detail and depth
  • Displacement – geometry-level depth for subdivision or parallax
  • Roughness – specular control (matte vs. glossy areas)
  • Ambient Occlusion – contact shadows baked into crevices
  • Metallic – to tell which parts are metal
  • ORM (Patreon exclusive) – packed Occlusion/Roughness/Metallic for Unreal Engine. What is an ORM texture?

Engine & Software Compatibility

Drop these maps directly into any PBR-capable software. Tested workflows:

  • Blender — connect via the Principled BSDF node. Use Color → Base Color, Normal → Normal Map node → Normal, Roughness → Roughness, Displacement → Displacement node in the material output.
  • Unreal Engine 5 — use the ORM map (Patreon) for the packed texture slot, or plug Roughness/Metallic/AO individually into a Material.
  • Unity (URP / HDRP) — Color → Albedo, Normal → Normal Map, Roughness → Smoothness (invert the channel).
  • Godot 4 — StandardMaterial3D: Albedo → Albedo, Normal → Normal Map, Roughness → Roughness.
  • Maya / 3ds Max / Cinema 4D — compatible with Arnold, V-Ray, and Redshift via their PBR shader nodes.

Best Use Cases

Not sure where to apply this texture? Here are some ideas from the community:

  • Interior design and Archviz: modern sofa panels, custom banquettes, headboard wall treatments
  • Gaming and Virtual Reality environments: high-end lounge areas, futuristic seating, VIP rooms
  • Product visualization: custom furniture detailing, car interior panels (luxury vehicles)
  • Retail and Hospitality Design: boutique hotel furnishings, seating in high-end lobbies
  • Theatrical set design: comfortable, period, or modern set dressing
  • Architectural Model Making: conceptual visualization of interior detailing
  • Sci-fi or futuristic interiors: bio-luminescent or custom-material cushioning

Tiling & Technical Notes

The texture is fully seamless, it tiles without visible seams in any direction. The panel grid and stitching pattern are designed to repeat naturally, but pay attention to scale: in a real upholstered panel, the size of the individual cushion sections and the spacing of the stitches must match the intended furniture scale. Match your UV scale to these real-world dimensions for convincingly upholstered results. For large wall sections, a slight UV offset between adjacent panels (using Blender’s object coordinates or Unreal’s World-Aligned Texture node) will break up any perception of repeat in the stitching pattern. The blue albedo responds well to colour grading, warming it slightly can make it look like faded velvet, while desaturating and shifting it towards grey can give it a more minimalist, modern industrial edge.

The color and roughness can be fully modified with the Substance Designer source files available to patrons.

What is a seamless / tileable texture?

A seamless texture has matching edges on all four sides, so it can be repeated infinitely across a surface without a visible seam or border. All textures on this site are seamless.

What are SBS / SBSAR files?

These are Substance Designer source files that let you modify the texture parameters  colour, roughness, scale, etc.) non-destructively. Available to Patreon supporters.
