Orion Iii Blueberry

About this fabric

The visible surface is densely textured with closely spaced horizontal lines that shift gently between blueberry blue and charcoal-tinged blue-grey. Its cool colouring gives the fabric a composed, modern depth, while the fine weave keeps the overall effect restrained. The textile appearance makes this colourway best suited to upholstery, particularly where a quiet linear texture is wanted. No composition, width, rub-test or other performance specifications were supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair this cool blueberry blue-grey with pale oak, chalky neutrals or charcoal accents to build a calm, contemporary scheme. Its subtle horizontal texture works especially well on clean-lined seating where the depth of colour can be seen across the surface.

Use this cool blue-grey weave to bring understated depth to contemporary upholstery.

Orion Iii Blueberry 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.
