Cormar

Starlight

Riva Carpet

Starlight is a pale, cool grey with a softly mottled surface that gives the colour a quiet, silvery depth. The close view reveals a dense, irregular pile rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this carpet

This Cormar Riva colourway is catalogued as Carpet in the Soft Deep Pile category. Its light grey tone stays cool and restrained, with subtle tonal variation visible across the surface. The deep pile creates a softly nubby texture, allowing small changes in light to move across the otherwise understated shade. The result is a calm, tactile neutral with more depth than a plain grey.

How to use it

Use Starlight to bring a gentle silvery lift to a relaxed room, balancing it with warm timber, chalky whites or muted blue-grey accents.

Pair its cool, almost silvery grey with chalky whites, pale woods and soft layered neutrals.

Starlight 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.
