About this fabric

This Dedar colourway reads as a saturated navy, noticeably cooler and deeper than a softened blue, with the darkest areas approaching ink. Its face appears predominantly plain, while a fine, even textile texture prevents the colour from looking completely flat. The fabric is catalogued as Outdoor and carries the supplied Outdoor performance feature, making it suited to exterior upholstery applications. In changing light, the dense navy tone is likely to remain the defining visual element rather than any pattern.

How to use it

Pair Forever Navy with chalky whites, pale stone and weathered timber to bring definition to an outdoor scheme. Its cool, near-ink tone also works as a strong contrast against warm terracotta or honey-coloured accents.

Use this deep, cool navy on outdoor seating where its near-ink tone can anchor lighter neutrals and natural textures.

Pairs well with

Forever Navy 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.
