About this fabric

Atlas Novus Denim is a velvet from Dedar’s Velvet fabrics collection, shown here in a cool denim-blue tone. The surface is softly mottled rather than patterned, with tonal shifts that keep the blue from reading flat. In the photograph, the pile catches the light unevenly, creating a hazy variation from blue-grey to slightly deeper blue. No performance features are listed for this colourway in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this muted, cool blue on a sofa, armchair or headboard where its cloudy texture can soften clean silhouettes. Pair it with pale timber, chalky neutrals or warm brass to balance the denim tone without competing with its subtle surface variation.

The cool, softly mottled denim tone brings depth to upholstered seating without introducing a distinct pattern.

Atlas Novus Denim 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.
