Odyssey Mocha is a calm, tonal plain in a warm mocha taupe that reads soft and grounded in the swatch. Its surface has a gently matte look with subtle woven movement rather than a flat, chalky finish.

About this fabric

Part of the Odyssey collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is made from 100% polyester and designed for contract use. The swatch shows a muted mocha-taupe shade with a warm brown base and a soft, slightly heathered appearance that gives the colour some depth without obvious pattern. With a Martindale rating of 50,000 and a supplied back coating to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it is well suited to demanding interiors. The finish looks understated and practical, with enough body to hold a clean tailored line while keeping the overall effect quiet and refined. Professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care guidance available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use Odyssey Mocha where you want a warm neutral that sits comfortably alongside oak, walnut and darker accent fabrics. It will soften modern schemes and add depth to upholstery without drawing attention away from surrounding textures.

A versatile warm taupe that pairs easily with timber, leather and quiet neutrals.

Pairs well with

Odyssey Mocha 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.
