About this fabric

The swatch shows tiny taupe woven motifs set into a chalk background, creating a small broken-grid effect with subtle horizontal banding. At 388 gsm and 140 cm usable width, this is a substantial outdoor textile suited to upholstery applications. Its 7.5 cm vertical repeat and 0.5 cm horizontal repeat keep the pattern finely scaled and easy to place across cushions or larger upholstered areas. With 21 threads per cm, the closely built weave gives the pale colourway a softly textured, tactile finish.

How to use it

Use Ayla Chalk/Taupe on outdoor seating, bench cushions or scatter cushions where its chalk base can brighten a scheme without losing the grounding effect of the muted taupe detail. Pair it with warm timber, pale stone and simple neutral accessories to echo its relaxed woven character.

Use this quiet chalk-and-taupe outdoor weave to bring subtle texture to upholstered seating and cushions.

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.
