Bud Denim is a cool, muted denim-blue fabric covered in a dense repeat of pale blue-grey, leaf-like motifs. The close-set pattern gives the surface a graphic, almost tessellated appearance.

About this fabric

The woven ground shifts subtly between denim blue and softer blue-grey, giving this colourway a gently mottled depth rather than a flat block of colour. Small stylised leaf or ogee motifs repeat closely across the cloth, creating an even all-over design. Fine surface variation in the weave adds a tactile quality that is especially apparent in this close-up view. With its substantial-looking woven texture and compact pattern, Bud Denim is well suited to upholstered furniture.

How to use it

Use this cool denim colourway on an upholstered chair, bench or headboard, pairing it with chalky blue-grey, ivory and weathered timber so the pale motifs remain clearly legible.

Its cool denim ground and pale blue-grey repeat bring a graphic, softly textured finish to upholstered pieces.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bud Denim without fighting it. 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.
