Arco Fabric

Mirror Olive presents Arco’s bold geometric repeat in a softened olive-grey and cream palette. The closely woven surface gives the pattern a subtly tactile, textile-led finish.

About this fabric

Tall rounded capsule motifs sit within pointed geometric frames, creating a regular vertical rhythm across the cloth. The darker olive-taupe forms are balanced by warm pale-cream grounds, giving the design a muted, earthy contrast rather than a high-contrast look. A fine woven texture is visible across both tones, gently softening the crisp edges of the repeated shapes. Its structured appearance makes it particularly well suited to upholstered pieces where the large-scale geometry can be clearly seen.

How to use it

Use Mirror Olive on a statement armchair, headboard or tailored sofa, pairing it with warm ivory, mushroom and natural timber. Its greyed olive tone also works well with aged brass and deeper brown accents.

Use this muted olive geometric to bring structured pattern and softened contrast to contemporary upholstery.

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.
