Makenzi Aqua

Amara FabricCCF0161-01

Makenzi Aqua combines a pale, cool aqua ground with a closely repeated blue lattice of interlocking diamonds and squares. The woven surface gives the colourway a softly dimensional, tactile appearance rather than a flat printed finish.

About this fabric

This substantial 501gsm fabric is woven in a muted aqua blue, with darker blue diagonal bands creating a compact geometric lattice across the face. Fine vertical and horizontal lines reinforce each repeat, while slight tonal variation in the weave softens the precision of the pattern. With a 138cm usable width, a 5.3cm vertical repeat and a 5.7cm horizontal repeat, the design is easy to read across upholstered panels and cushions. Its weight and structured surface make it a natural upholstery choice.

How to use it

Use Makenzi Aqua on a contemporary armchair, dining seat or headboard where its cool aqua ground can lighten the scheme while the blue lattice supplies crisp definition. Pair it with pale timber, chalky neutrals or deeper navy accents to emphasise its quietly coastal tone.

A substantial woven geometric that brings cool aqua and blue structure to upholstered seating and occasional furniture.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Makenzi Aqua 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.
