About this fabric

Sense Chalk is catalogued as a fabric in Kirkby Design’s 4d Upholstery collection; no composition, width or performance figures are supplied for this colourway. Its pale cream tone has a cool, lightly chalky quality rather than a strong yellow warmth. A fine, closely settled weave runs subtly across the surface, with tiny tonal shifts that keep the plain face from looking completely flat.

How to use it

Use this light chalk-cream colourway to brighten upholstered seating while keeping the room calm and understated. It pairs naturally with soft whites, pale timber and muted stone tones, where its fine horizontal texture can be seen at close range.

A quiet chalk-cream upholstery cloth with a fine, understated woven texture.

Pairs well with

Sense 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.
