Metronome Rosso

Eco -Friendly Ranges Fabric

Metronome Rosso brings a rhythmic field of circular spots in a rich berry red against a warm pale ground. The repeated motif feels bold but neatly ordered, with a softly textured surface that keeps it from reading flat.

About this fabric

This fabric has a 32cm vertical and 17cm horizontal repeat, which gives the dot pattern a strong, regular pulse across the cloth. The visible weave looks like a structured decorative textile rather than a sheer, and the 140cm width makes it practical for a range of interior projects. Its composition of 36% Polyester, 18% BCI Cotton and 46% Ecovero Viscose suggests a balanced mix of stability, natural handle and drape. The rosso colourway is a deep, wine-leaning red that feels vivid without becoming bright, especially where the weave breaks the surface into a slightly matte finish.

How to use it

Pair this red-and-cream pattern with oak, dark wood or brushed brass to echo its tailored feel. It works well as a statement upholstery fabric or a lively drapery cloth where the repeat can be shown off.

Use with walnut woods and warm neutrals for a confident, tailored look.

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