Malo Aqua

Corti FabricM4192-10

Malo Aqua is a clean, cool aqua with a fine woven surface that reads soft and gently textural in the light. The colour feels fresh rather than bright, giving the fabric a calm coastal character.

About this fabric

This Corti colourway is woven in 100% Solution Dyed Acryl, with an approximate width of 138cm and a plain, non-directional appearance. The surface shows a neat, linen-like weave with subtle flecking that adds depth to the pale aqua ground. Its tone sits between blue and green, but stays muted and airy rather than saturated, so the cloth feels light and easy to live with. With a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx., it offers a simple, uninterrupted look that works well when you want colour without pattern.

How to use it

Use Malo Aqua to bring a cool lift to neutral interiors, especially alongside bleached timber, chalky whites and pale oak. It also suits relaxed seaside-inspired schemes where the soft aqua tone can be echoed in cushions, blinds or casual seating.

A cool aqua that feels fresh and airy on its own, with enough body for either upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

Malo Aqua is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
