Hugo Blue

Tarn FabricF4802-05

Hugo Blue reads as a softly faded blue-grey with a breezy, linen-like character and fine woven texture. The small-scale linear pattern gives the swatch a calm, lightly striated surface rather than a bold statement.

About this fabric

Hugo Blue from the Tarn collection by Colefax and Fowler is a 141cm approx wide fabric with a composition of 37% viscose, 22% linen, 18% cotton, 14% polyester, 4% wool, 3% polyamide and 2% acrylic. The weave shows a delicate, closely worked texture with tiny horizontal banding and a subtle zigzag effect that catches the light without looking shiny. In this colourway, the blue is very soft and diffused, sitting between powder blue and cool grey with a muted, misted finish. That gentle tone makes the pattern feel airy and refined rather than graphic. The fire code is √BM and the care code is Q 8 < T 3.

How to use it

Use it where you want a light, polished blue that won’t dominate: on an upholstered occasional chair, headboard or Roman blind. It pairs especially well with chalk white, pale oak and brushed nickel for a fresh, understated scheme.

A cool, quietly textured blue that works well on clean-lined upholstery or softly tailored curtains.

Pairs well with

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