Fibre Autumn

Name: Fibre Autumn
Brand: Kirkby Design

Fibre Autumn is a densely textured woven fabric in a warm rust-brown shade, enlivened by ochre, tan and pale yarn flecks. Its close, irregular weave gives the surface a softly mottled appearance rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

The warm autumnal ground shifts between cinnamon, caramel and earthy brown, with lighter threads catching across the surface to create gentle depth. A fine crosshatched weave is clearly visible in the swatch, giving this colourway a tactile, crafted character. It reads as a substantial upholstery fabric from its compact, closely woven appearance. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so suitability should be considered alongside the intended project requirements.

How to use it

Use Fibre Autumn on a reading chair, sofa or upholstered ottoman where its rust and ochre tones can warm a room without introducing a bright, saturated colour. Pair it with natural timber, aged brass and softly contrasting cream textiles to pick out the pale flecks in the weave.

A tactile rust-brown weave that brings warm, earthy depth to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

Fibre Autumn 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.
