About this fabric

The background reads as a cool stone taupe, with a muted grey cast rather than a warm beige undertone. Across it, pale chalk-like lines form alternating angular cross motifs and horizontal dash groupings in a regular repeat. The surface has a subtly granular, matte appearance that gently softens the contrast between ground and pattern. With no further specification data supplied, this description is based on the visible colour, motif and surface texture of the swatch.

How to use it

Pair this stone taupe with off-white, putty, pale oak and brushed metal for a quiet contemporary scheme. Its restrained contrast also suits tailored upholstery or softly structured curtains where the geometric repeat can remain visible without dominating the room.

Use this softly greyed taupe with chalky whites, natural timber and warm metal accents for a calm, considered interior.

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.
