Alpha Marshmallow is a very pale blush-pink textile with a quiet, softly clouded surface. Its plain appearance is lifted by subtle tonal variation rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

The colour sits between warm ivory and delicate pink, with a restrained depth that keeps the swatch feeling light and airy. A fine, brushed-looking texture creates soft mottling across the surface, while the low-contrast finish avoids any strong directional pattern. This is a plain fabric visually, with the interest coming from the gentle shifts between creamy pink and slightly deeper blush. Its soft, calm character makes it especially suited to upholstery where a quiet colour and tactile surface are wanted.

How to use it

Use Alpha Marshmallow on an occasional chair, headboard or cushion where its pale blush tone can warm an otherwise neutral room. Pair it with chalky whites, light timber and muted taupes to preserve the colourway’s delicate, softly faded feel.

A softly mottled blush tone that brings gentle warmth to upholstered seating and cushions.

Pairs well with

Alpha Marshmallow is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
