Como Ochre

Como Fabric

Como Ochre has a light, airy floral trail that reads warm and softly sunlit on the pale ground. The ochre blossoms and grey stems give the design a gentle, lived-in character rather than a crisp botanical look.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton and measuring 140cm wide, Como Ochre has a 45cm pattern repeat and a natural handle suited to soft furnishings. The ground appears creamy and calm, while the flowerheads bring in a muted ochre-gold with a slightly brushed, painterly edge. Slender grey stems and leaves keep the palette grounded and stop the yellow tone from feeling too bright. It has the easy, breathable look of a cotton textile, with enough pattern movement to add interest without overpowering a room.

How to use it

Use this colourway where you want warmth without heaviness: it works especially well on relaxed curtains, scatter cushions, or a light occasional chair. Pair the ochre and grey tones with chalky neutrals, weathered oak, or soft sage for a balanced scheme.

A warm ochre floral that softens beautifully against pale woods and brushed metals.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Como Ochre without fighting it. 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.
