Memphis FabricMEM109

MEM109 is a deep brick-red faux leather with a finely pebbled grain that gives the surface subtle tonal variation. Its warm, dusky red colour reads rich rather than bright across the swatch.

About this fabric

This Memphis colourway is made from 80% polyurethane and 20% cotton, with a 138cm width for upholstery applications. The close, organic grain is visible across the surface, creating a softly textured finish rather than a flat, uniform red. It is graded for contract, domestic and healthcare upholstery, with contract flame retardancy specified. Professional aftercare is required.

How to use it

Pair the warm brick-red tone with smoked timber, dark bronze or charcoal upholstery for a grounded, tailored scheme. The lightly textured faux-leather surface also suits banquettes, headboards and accent chairs where its colour can provide a controlled depth of red.

Use this deep brick-red faux leather on tailored seating, banquettes or occasional pieces to add warmth and a polished, tactile finish.

Pairs well with

MEM109 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.
