Durant Multi is a softly heathered neutral with a warm taupe-brown cast and a fine, nubby surface. The colour reads layered and mellow rather than flat, with tiny flecks of lighter and darker yarn lending depth across the cloth.

About this fabric

Woven in a 45% Linen, 18% Wool, 17% Cotton, 12% Viscose, 8% Polyamide blend, Durant Multi has the dry, tactile look of a natural-fibre mix with just enough softness to keep it inviting. The repeat is V 0cm / H 0cm approx, so the appeal comes from the texture and yarn variation rather than a set motif. At approximately 147cm wide, it presents as a versatile upholstery cloth that can also be used for drapery where a more structured hand is desired. The overall tone is a muted warm brown with taupe and mushroom undertones, giving it an earthy, understated finish.

How to use it

Use this shade to settle a room with timber, leather and wool, where its warm taupe-brown tone will bridge cool and warm finishes. It also works neatly on tailored cushions or a sofa that needs texture without introducing a strong pattern.

A quietly textural neutral that works well on upholstery or soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

Durant Multi 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.
