About this fabric

This colourway reads as a balanced taupe-grey, with a subtle warmth that keeps the shade from appearing stark or cold. Its fine plain weave is clearly visible across the swatch, creating a restrained linen-like texture and softly broken surface. The close weave and sheer-fabric character make it best suited to light-filtering drapery. No composition, width, rub test or additional performance features are supplied for this listing.

How to use it

Use Baobab Taupe at full window length where its softened grey-brown tone can temper bright daylight without adding a strong pattern. Pair it with chalk, mushroom, warm white or deeper brown furnishings for a calm, textural scheme.

Use this muted taupe-grey sheer to soften daylight and bring quiet texture to relaxed interiors.

Wide Linen Baobab Taupe 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.
