About this fabric
The closely spaced zigzag lines create a medium-scale geometric rhythm across the cloth, while the low-contrast charcoal-on-charcoal colouring keeps the pattern restrained. Fine surface texture catches the light along the angled lines, adding depth without introducing a contrasting colour. The dark Carbon shade reads almost black in the deepest areas, with softer graphite highlights where the texture turns towards the light. As a textile SKU with no further performance specification supplied, its visible weight and structured geometric surface make it best considered for upholstery.
How to use it
Use Flexion Carbon on a contemporary sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its cool charcoal tone can anchor pale stone, smoked glass and blackened metal. Keep surrounding patterns simple so the chevron texture remains the room’s defining detail.
Use this deep charcoal tone to give contemporary upholstery a calm, architectural finish.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Flexion 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.
