Name: Hampstead Pesto
Brand: Kirkby Design

Hampstead Pesto is a muted olive-green woven fabric with a quietly varied surface. In the close-up, fine pale threads soften the depth of the pesto shade and create a subtle, tactile grain.

About this fabric

The cloth has a small-scale, closely spaced weave that reads as gently mottled rather than patterned, with tiny light threads interrupting the olive ground. Its restrained colour sits between moss and soft khaki, giving the surface a calm, earthy character rather than a bright or highly saturated green. The weave appears visually versatile enough for upholstery and drapery, although no further usage, composition or performance specification has been supplied. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Hampstead Pesto to bring a softened olive note to an otherwise neutral room, especially on a tailored chair, ottoman or full-length curtain. Pair its pale flecking with warm timber, chalky plaster tones and natural linens for a quietly layered scheme.

Its softly mottled olive tone brings a grounded, textural layer to relaxed upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Pairs well with

Hampstead Pesto 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.
