About this fabric

The surface is dominated by broad bands of near-black navy, separated by narrow groupings of cream and muted red stripes. Its close, fine weave gives the image a subtle textile grain rather than a visibly plush or brushed texture. The cool navy creates depth, while the red lines add a controlled accent and the cream lines keep the stripe pattern crisp. No performance features are noted for this SKU, so its appeal here is the disciplined colour contrast and finely woven appearance.

How to use it

Use Alumnus Navy where a room needs a confident, tailored note: on a structured chair, neat blind or full-length curtain. Pair the deep navy with warm timber and repeat the muted red in small accents rather than large blocks.

The deep navy ground and precise cream-and-red striping bring tailored structure to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

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.
