Carmen Grey

Name: Carmen Grey
Brand: Dedar
SKU: 6

Carmen Grey combines a cool, pale grey woven ground with tightly grouped vertical charcoal stripes. The fine surface texture softens the contrast, while the repeated bands give the design a precise architectural character.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a light grey textile with a close, subtly diagonal-looking weave and alternating bands of narrow charcoal vertical stripes. Several fine stripe groups sit alongside wider open grey sections, creating rhythm without overwhelming the neutral ground. The cool tone reads clean and understated, with the darker lines adding definition rather than warmth. No composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Carmen Grey where a cool neutral is needed with more structure than a plain grey: tailored curtains, Roman blinds or a neatly upholstered occasional chair would let the vertical bands establish height and direction.

Use the cool grey ground and charcoal stripe bands to bring a tailored, architectural rhythm to upholstery or drapery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Carmen Grey without fighting it. 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.
