About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric, Tangram Carbon has a visibly woven, lightly textured surface rather than a flat printed appearance. Small charcoal, graphite and mid-grey triangles interlock across the ground, creating a broken tessellated effect with strong visual rhythm. Its dark, cool tonal range reads as contemporary and architectural, while the close pattern keeps the overall impression controlled. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Tangram Carbon on a modern armchair, dining chair or compact sofa where its cool charcoal ground can anchor pale grey, blackened timber and brushed metal. The small-scale geometry also suits cushions or a coordinated upholstered accent without overwhelming the room.

A sharply graphic charcoal-and-grey weave for contemporary upholstered seating and occasional furniture.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Tangram Carbon without fighting it. 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.
