Soho Fabric

Soho Navy presents a deep, cool blue with an almost ink-like depth. Its close-up reveals a subtle woven texture rather than a printed pattern, giving the colour quiet visual interest.

About this fabric

This Soho colourway is a dark navy that reads close to blue-black in the deepest areas, while fine threads catch the light with small tonal shifts. The surface has a compact, regular weave visible across the swatch, creating understated texture without a distinct motif. Its dense-looking construction and even finish give the cloth a composed, tailored appearance. No performance features or further specification data have been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Soho Navy on a structured armchair, sofa or dining seat where its cool, inky tone can anchor softer creams, natural timber and muted blue accents. The near-black depth also works well with brass or warm lighting for a more atmospheric scheme.

Use this deep, cool navy as a grounding upholstery colour alongside pale woods, warm neutrals or brushed metal.

Pairs well with

Soho Navy 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.
