Homerton Grey

Apollo Plus Carpet

Homerton Grey is a cool mid-grey carpet with a densely textured, softly flecked surface. Its close mottling gives the colour gentle depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this carpet

The surface is formed from tightly packed, short fibres in layered grey tones, creating a fine salt-and-pepper effect across the swatch. The overall shade reads cool and measured, with lighter flecks catching against deeper grey marks to soften its appearance. Homerton Grey is catalogued as a Carpet and belongs to the Easy Clean category. Its low-contrast texture keeps the design understated while adding tactile detail at close range.

How to use it

Use this cool mottled grey as a calm foundation for contemporary upholstery, pairing it with pale stone, charcoal or muted blue accents. Its softly varied surface can also help disguise small changes in tone in busy living spaces.

The cool, peppered grey surface brings a practical, quietly modern finish to upholstered pieces.

Pairs well with

Homerton Grey 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.
