Carmen Charcoal

Digital Prints Fabric

Carmen Charcoal pairs a deep charcoal ground with stone, taupe and soft black accents in a bold patchwork geometric layout. The print reads crisp and architectural, with the lighter blocks lifting the darker motifs across the surface.

About this fabric

Woven in 30% polyester and 70% BCI cotton, this 140cm-wide fabric has the feel of a practical printed textile with a clear, dry surface rather than a plush pile. The pattern repeat of 85.2cm vertical by 45.6cm horizontal supports the oversized patchwork motif seen here, where stepped diamonds, stripes and angular blocks build a strong graphic rhythm. In this colourway, the charcoal tones sit cool and grounded against warm stone and beige areas, giving the design more depth than a simple monochrome print. The overall effect is smart and contemporary, with enough contrast to stand out while still staying restrained and usable in a room scheme.

How to use it

Use Carmen Charcoal on a statement chair, blind or upholstered bench where the large geometric repeat can be shown off. It works especially well with pale plaster, oak and black accents, letting the charcoal and stone palette feel tailored rather than heavy.

The muted charcoal ground gives this graphic patchwork a tailored, contemporary feel.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Carmen Charcoal 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.
