Atrio Dove/Noir

Atrio Dove/Noir has a cool dove-grey ground crossed by tightly worked black flecks and broken horizontal marks. The close, tactile weave gives the colourway a softly graphic, salt-and-pepper depth.

About this fabric

This 451gsm fabric has a dense woven surface, with fine horizontal striations and irregular black-and-dove interruptions visible across the swatch. Its restrained contrast keeps the pattern quiet, while the black threads add definition rather than a strong, high-impact graphic. The design has a 20cm vertical repeat and 14cm horizontal repeat, creating a small-scale texture suitable for upholstery applications. It is supplied at a 142cm usable width, with a standard length of 30m and 90 threads per centimetre.

How to use it

Pair the cool dove-grey base with charcoal, chalk white or brushed metal for a clean contemporary scheme. On a chair, headboard or compact sofa, the black flecks will add definition while retaining a light overall impression.

Use this cool dove-grey and black weave to bring crisp, quietly graphic texture to contemporary upholstery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Atrio Dove/Noir 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.
