Cover White

Name: Cover White
Brand: Kirkby Design

Cover White is a near-white woven surface with a close, finely grained texture visible across the swatch. Its quiet linear structure keeps the colour from reading as completely flat.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a soft, clean white with a faintly warm, chalk-like quality rather than a stark blue white. A fine, regular crosswoven grain creates delicate tonal variation as the light moves across the surface, while the absence of a printed motif keeps the appearance understated. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Cover White to brighten upholstered seating while retaining subtle tactile depth; its chalky tone works especially well with pale timber, stone and softly contrasting neutrals.

The fine woven relief gives this soft white surface more depth than a flat solid.

Cover 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.
