About this fabric

Catalogued as Carpet, Heron has the dense-looking, tactile surface visible in this close-up and is best read as an upholstery-weight textile. Its taupe-grey colour sits between warm stone and soft grey, with small tonal shifts across the surface. The fine nubs catch the light subtly, creating a restrained, grain-like texture without a visible motif or repeat.

How to use it

Use Heron on a sofa, armchair or ottoman where its muted taupe-grey tone can soften stronger architectural colours. Pair it with chalky whites, weathered timber and deeper charcoal accents to bring out its cool, grounded texture.

Its quiet taupe-grey tone and softly nubby surface bring understated texture to upholstered 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.
