About this fabric

The fabric reads as a restrained mid-to-dark grey, with closely spaced horizontal lines creating subtle tonal movement across the swatch. Its fine, compact weave appears lightweight and suitable for drapery rather than heavy upholstery. The near-monochrome surface keeps the design calm, while the ribbing adds enough texture to prevent the grey from looking flat. Alter Ego Wall Metal belongs to Dedar’s Fire-retardant collection; no further composition, width or performance specifications were supplied.

How to use it

Use this cool grey colourway for full-length curtains or tailored blinds where its fine horizontal texture can add definition without introducing a strong pattern. It would sit naturally with charcoal, blackened metal, pale stone and other cool neutrals.

A cool grey, finely ribbed textile for understated curtains and blinds in contemporary rooms.

Pairs well with

Alter Ego Wall Metal 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.
