Smooth Midnight

Smooth Iii Fabric

Smooth Midnight is a deeply saturated navy that reads almost black across the swatch. Its smooth-looking surface keeps the colour composed and understated rather than bright.

About this fabric

This colourway is defined by a cool midnight-blue tone with very little visible variation, creating a near-black depth in the image. The surface appears smooth and closely settled, with no discernible printed motif or contrasting weave. That restrained finish gives the fabric a polished, luxe character suited to clean-lined upholstery. In stronger light, the blue undertone should remain perceptible rather than becoming a flat true black.

How to use it

Use Smooth Midnight on a tailored armchair, sofa or headboard where its cool, almost-black navy can anchor a room. Pair it with pale stone, smoked timber or brushed metal to bring out the subtle blue beneath the depth.

A near-black navy tone with a quiet, smooth appearance for tailored upholstery.

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.
