Name: Fold Cream

Fold Cream is an almost-white ivory fabric with a very fine, low-contrast angular line drawing across the surface. Its restrained pattern is visible without interrupting the light, calm ground.

About this fabric

The warm cream tone reads soft and lightly muted rather than stark white, while the barely-there lines create an understated geometric rhythm. Thin branching and intersecting marks appear across the swatch, with enough variation to give the plain ground gentle visual depth. The surface looks smooth and finely textured, catching the light softly rather than appearing glossy. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Fold Cream to keep a room feeling bright and quiet on an upholstered chair, headboard or curtain, pairing its warm ivory base with pale timber, natural linens and softly contrasting neutrals.

A quiet ivory ground with a delicate angular line pattern for calm upholstery or softly tailored drapery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Fold Cream 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.
