About this fabric

The image shows a deep charcoal taupe base with irregular patches of lighter grey and brown-grey running across the surface. The close-up texture appears dense and softly brushed, with blurred tonal movement rather than a defined motif. Its muted contrast gives the colourway a composed, smart character while retaining visible depth. This is a textile fabric colourway from Kirkby Design’s Faze collection; no further performance or composition specification has been supplied.

How to use it

Use Faze Carbon on an armchair, sofa or dining seat where its warm charcoal taupe tone can complement natural timber, stone and other restrained neutrals. The cloudy surface will add depth without introducing a strong pattern.

Use this softly mottled charcoal taupe to bring quiet depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Faze Carbon 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.
