About this fabric

The close-up reveals a compact basket-like construction, with pale and darker taupe threads creating a gently broken surface rather than a flat solid colour. Its restrained grey cast keeps the shade cool and understated, while the woven texture adds depth as light moves across it. The substantial-looking, closely set weave makes it best suited to upholstery applications. Abacus Platino is catalogued as a fabric in Dedar’s Fire-retardant collection; no composition, width or test result is supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair this soft taupe-grey with chalky whites, warm timber and brushed metal for a composed contemporary scheme. Its small-scale weave is particularly effective on tailored sofas, occasional chairs and headboards where the tonal texture can be seen at close range.

Use this softly muted taupe-grey weave to bring quiet texture to tailored upholstery and contemporary seating.

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.
