About this fabric

This colourway shows a warm latte-beige ground with subtle tonal clouding, giving the plain surface extra depth without any obvious patterning. The finish looks softly textured rather than flat, with tiny shifts between sandy beige, oat and light brown across the weave. Made from 100% polyester, Modena is specified for contract use and carries an 80,000 Martindale rating, so it is well suited to busy seating schemes. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and can be professionally dry cleaned in situ or washed at 40°C, with further care guidance in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this warm neutral on banquettes, dining chairs or occasional seating where a softer alternative to grey is wanted. It pairs especially well with oak, smoked timber and muted olive accents.

A versatile latte tone that brings a soft, tailored warmth to contract seating.

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.
