About this fabric

The taupe colourway layers warm mushroom, stone and brown-grey tones across a tightly repeated grid of small rectangular blocks. Within each block, fine horizontal and vertical lines shift direction, giving the surface a woven, almost architectural rhythm. As a velvet, it is catalogued for upholstery; no performance features are noted in the supplied information. The subdued contrast keeps the pattern detailed rather than bold, while the darker lines give the neutral ground definition.

How to use it

Use this muted taupe colourway on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its compact linear pattern can add detail without overwhelming a neutral room. Pair it with warm timber, stone and soft brown accents to bring out the shade’s gentle depth.

A softly neutral velvet with a finely structured geometric grid for tailored upholstery.

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.
