Motion Sage

Name: Motion Sage
Brand: Kirkby Design

Motion Sage is a quiet grey-green textile with a softly mottled woven surface. Its restrained sage tone shifts gently across the swatch, giving the plain cloth subtle depth rather than a pronounced pattern.

About this fabric

Motion Sage is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied specification. The visible surface has a fine, close weave and a lightly irregular texture that keeps the sage colour from appearing flat. Its cool grey cast gives the green a softened, understated character, while the even construction reads as suitable for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Use this muted, cool sage on a relaxed occasional chair or full-length curtains, then balance its grey-green tone with warm oak, chalky neutrals and softly textured layers.

Use this cool, muted sage weave to bring a soft grey-green note to upholstery, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

Motion Sage 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.
