Name: Hackney White
Brand: Kirkby Design

Hackney White is a fine white textile with a quiet, airy appearance. Its close surface weave is crossed by very subtle horizontal tonal bands, creating gentle movement rather than a defined motif.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a soft warm white, with delicate shifts between brighter and slightly shaded areas across the cloth. A fine woven texture is visible at close range, while broad horizontal bands add restrained depth without becoming a strong pattern. The light surface gives this colourway a fresh, calm character suited to drapery. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Hackney White for relaxed curtains or voile-style panels where its soft white tone can brighten a room without looking stark. Pair it with pale timber, chalky neutrals and gently textured upholstery to echo the cloth’s understated horizontal movement.

A fine, softly textured white cloth with subtle horizontal tonal movement for light, understated window treatments.

Hackney White 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.
