Hito Taupe/Chalk

Indoor Outdoor Weaves OutdoorHAF0558-06

Hito Taupe/Chalk combines a pale taupe ground with chalk-toned threads in a tightly scaled, softly irregular woven texture. The restrained contrast gives the surface a gently dimensional look without a bold graphic pattern.

About this fabric

The fabric’s warm grey-taupe base is threaded with chalk highlights, creating a light, flecked appearance across the close-up weave. Small diagonal and broken chevron-like marks add movement, while the low-contrast palette keeps the overall effect calm and understated. At 522 gsm, it has the substantial presence expected of a robust outdoor upholstery textile. Its 137 cm usable width and 2.5 cm vertical by 1.6 cm horizontal pattern repeat make the texture easy to position across cushions and upholstered forms.

How to use it

Use this soft taupe-and-chalk colourway on outdoor seating where a pale, quietly textured finish will sit comfortably with stone, weathered timber and warm neutral accessories. Its small repeat also works well across seat cushions, benches and compact upholstered details.

Its softly flecked taupe-and-chalk weave brings a light, easy texture to outdoor upholstery.

Pairs well with

Hito Taupe/Chalk 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.
