Bumblebee

Apollo Plus Carpet

Bumblebee has a warm golden-brown appearance, with fine tonal flecks creating a softly mottled surface rather than a defined motif. The dense texture gives this Apollo Plus colourway a grounded, tactile look.

About this fabric

Catalogued as a Carpet in Cormar’s Apollo Plus collection, Bumblebee presents a closely textured pile in layered ochre, camel and brown tones. The small-scale flecking breaks up the golden-brown ground while keeping the overall effect visually calm. Its compact, substantial surface reads as a hard-wearing textile suited to upholstery-led applications. Bumblebee is listed in the Easy Clean category.

How to use it

Use Bumblebee to add warm, earthy depth to seating or other tactile furnishings, pairing its golden-brown tone with natural timber, cream upholstery and muted olive accents.

Its warm golden-brown, closely flecked surface brings softly textured depth to relaxed, earthy interiors.

Pairs well with

Bumblebee 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.
