Apex Linen
Origins FabricCCF0463-02
Apex Linen pairs a softly mottled taupe-grey ground with closely spaced ivory zigzags, creating a crisp geometric surface with a quiet, neutral depth. Its woven texture gives the pattern a subtly tactile finish rather than a flat printed appearance.

About this fabric
The muted taupe-grey background reads cooler and more understated than beige, while the ivory zigzag lines add clear contrast without becoming stark. The repeating motif forms narrow diamond-like points across the 136cm usable width, with a 5cm vertical repeat and 2.3cm horizontal repeat. At 313gsm, this is a substantial mid-weight textile suited to both upholstery and drapery applications. The standard length is 40m, making the small-scale pattern easy to position across wider runs.
How to use it
Use this colourway to bring gentle graphic definition to a neutral room: the taupe-grey base works naturally with stone, chalk and warm timber, while the ivory pattern can be echoed in cushions or curtain trims. Its restrained contrast suits tailored seating as well as softly gathered window treatments.
A versatile taupe-grey and ivory geometric weave for tailored upholstery or softly structured curtains.

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.
