Matrix Azure

Matrix Azure is a cool, subdued blue-grey textile with a closely textured surface and fine horizontal grain. Its softly varied colour gives the swatch depth without introducing a visible motif.

About this fabric

Made from 48% Viscose, 34% Cotton and 18% Polyester, Matrix Azure has a softly lustrous, compact woven appearance. The azure shade reads as blue softened with grey, creating a calm, cool finish rather than a bright or highly saturated blue. At 137 cm wide and rated to 40,000 Martindale, it is suitable for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. Care is professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use Matrix Azure to temper warm timber, cream upholstery or pale stone walls with a cool blue-grey note. Its restrained horizontal texture works well on a tailored armchair, relaxed curtains or a coordinated bedspread.

A cool, finely textured blue-grey that brings quiet depth to upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

Matrix Azure 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.
