About this fabric

The swatch shows a dense plain weave in layered graphite and charcoal-grey tones, with fine vertical threads creating restrained surface movement. The colour reads cool and understated rather than stark black, while the closely spaced texture gives it visual depth. This colourway is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied data. Its substantial-looking woven appearance makes it particularly suited to upholstery applications where a dark, composed finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use the cool graphite tone on an armchair, sofa or dining seat to create a grounded foundation, then lift it with pale stone, soft grey or warm timber accents. The fine linear weave will add texture without introducing a visible pattern.

Use this deep graphite grey as a grounded upholstery tone, pairing its subtle woven texture with lighter or warmer accents.

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.
