About this fabric

At 513gsm, this is a substantial fabric with the visual presence and weight suited to upholstery. The dark brown ground shifts subtly across the surface, while broken lighter marks catch the light within the uneven rectangular pattern. The design has a 41cm vertical repeat and 35cm horizontal repeat, creating a consistent but distressed rhythm across the cloth. A usable width of 138cm makes the pattern practical to position across upholstered pieces.

How to use it

Use this warm, deep espresso colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its pale surface flecks can add definition without lifting the overall scheme too far. Pair it with aged timber, warm metal and softly contrasting neutrals.

A weighty espresso-brown textile with a distressed block texture, suited to structured upholstery.

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