Cast Combat

Name: Cast Combat
Brand: Kirkby Design

Cast Combat has a muted olive-grey ground crossed by closely spaced, narrow vertical stripes. Its softly variegated surface gives the colourway a quiet, tailored depth rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a dense textile surface in olive grey, with subtle brown-grey variation that becomes more apparent between the darker stripe lines. Evenly repeated vertical bands create a fine, small-scale pattern and a clear sense of direction. The close, structured texture visible here makes this colourway best suited to upholstery, particularly where its neat striping can remain legible across a form. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair Cast Combat with warm timber, aged metal and soft stone tones to balance its cool, earthy olive-grey. On a chair, headboard or compact sofa, run the stripes vertically for a more tailored finish.

Use this muted olive-grey stripe to bring tailored direction and quiet depth to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Cast Combat without fighting it. 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.
