Parallel Linen
Origins FabricCCF0519-03
Parallel Linen presents a quiet pale greige-taupe ground crossed by softly raised ivory bars. Its low-contrast geometric layout gives the swatch a calm, tactile character rather than a strongly graphic finish.

About this fabric
The warm greige-taupe base is lightly flecked and woven, while the ivory rectangular bars form interrupted horizontal and vertical groupings across the surface. Subtle tonal variation in the ground keeps the pattern softly dimensional, with the raised-looking bars catching the light more gently than a printed motif. At 313 gsm and 136 cm wide, this is a versatile mid-weight textile suited to both upholstery and drapery. The pattern repeat measures 11.7 cm vertically by 8.5 cm horizontally, giving the design a measured, medium-scale rhythm.
How to use it
Pair this pale greige taupe with chalky whites, warm oak and softly weathered stone for a restful, textural scheme. Its muted contrast works particularly well on occasional upholstery, Roman blinds or relaxed curtains where the stepped bar pattern can be seen at close range.
Use this softly structured greige taupe in relaxed upholstery, blinds or full-length curtains.

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