About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric, this colourway shows a tightly woven, tactile face rather than a smooth printed surface. The ground reads as charcoal grey with a subtle salt-and-pepper fleck, while softly ivory, irregular wave bands create a consistent vertical rhythm. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so the defining character here is the disciplined repeat and softly contrasting woven texture.

How to use it

Use the cool charcoal-and-ivory balance to add graphic movement to a contemporary sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain. Pair it with pale stone, blackened metal and warm timber to soften the contrast without losing the wave pattern’s definition.

Use the cool charcoal-and-ivory contrast to bring rhythmic movement to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

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.
