Manhattan Taupe

Apollo Plus Carpet

Manhattan Taupe has a softly mottled surface, with warm taupe and beige fibres creating a calm, mineral-toned finish. The close, dense pile gives the colour gentle depth rather than a flat, uniform appearance.

About this fabric

Catalogued as an Easy Clean carpet, Manhattan Taupe combines a practical specification with a subtly textured visual surface. The image shows a dense, short pile made up of closely blended taupe, beige and muted grey-brown flecks. Its warm mushroom tone stays understated, while the small variations in the pile catch the light softly and prevent the neutral shade from feeling plain.

How to use it

Use this warm taupe as a grounding neutral alongside chalky whites, oatmeal upholstery and natural timber. Its softly flecked surface also works well with darker brown accents when a room needs added depth without strong contrast.

A warm, quietly flecked taupe that brings gentle texture and an easy neutral base to a scheme.

Pairs well with

Manhattan Taupe 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.
