About this fabric

The blue-grey ground has a muted denim character, reading cool and slightly softened rather than bright or saturated. Pale ivory dots trace looping, irregular meanders, creating contrast without overpowering the dark ground. Fine tonal variation in the surface gives the swatch a gently tactile, woven-looking appearance. No composition, width, rub test or additional performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey colourway to bring depth to a calm sitting room, balancing its pale dotted pattern with chalky cream, natural wood and rounded silhouettes.

Pair the cool denim-blue ground with pale neutrals and softly curved furniture for a calm, tailored scheme.

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