Cubic Zest
Formation Fabric
Cubic Zest has a light, creamy ground crossed by loose diagonal striations in lemon yellow, ivory, taupe and softly darker brown. Its layered movement resembles a delicate marbled surface, while the visible textile texture keeps the finish tactile rather than glossy.

About this fabric
This Formation fabric combines pale ivory and lemon tones with taupe and brown lines that drift diagonally across the face. The striations vary from fine, thread-like marks to broader irregular bands, creating a medium-scale pattern with gentle visual depth. The supplied record catalogues Cubic Zest as a fabric, with no performance features noted. Its warm, lightly zested colouring gives the marbled design a softer and more quietly luminous character than a strongly contrasting colourway.
How to use it
Use Cubic Zest to upholster a compact chair, headboard or accent seat where its pale lemon-cream base can brighten the room without becoming overpowering. Pair it with warm ivory, natural timber and muted taupe to echo the colour variation in its diagonal marbling.
The pale lemon-cream ground brings gentle warmth to upholstered chairs, headboards and occasional seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Cubic Zest 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.
