Galaxy Ocean

Galaxy Ocean is a soft, muted blue plain with a quietly smooth surface and a cool, even finish. The colour reads as a low-key ocean tone rather than a bright turquoise, giving it a settled, modern feel.

About this fabric

This colourway has a calm blue-grey cast that looks more misty than vivid, with a subtle tonal depth across the plain weave. The surface appears smoothly woven and lightly lustrous, which helps the shade catch the light without looking shiny. Made from 100% polyester, this fabric is specified for severe contract upholstery and drapes, and it carries a 50,000 severe contract rub test rating. At 140cm wide and 325gsm, it presents as a substantial, versatile cloth with enough body for seating while still working neatly at the window.

How to use it

Use Galaxy Ocean where you want a cool, composed accent that stays understated against pale woods, chalky neutrals, or brushed metal details. It will bring a crisp coastal note to tailored sofas and room-darkening curtains alike.

A calm blue plain that suits tailored upholstery or clean-lined drapes.

Pairs well with

Galaxy Ocean 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.
