Brush Aluminium

Volume Fabric

Brush Aluminium has a cool, pale aluminium-grey appearance with a softly mottled surface. Fine, irregular slub-like marks run across the close-textured ground, creating quiet movement without a set motif.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a silvery mid-light grey, with lighter threads catching the surface and darker flecks adding gentle depth. Its dense, tactile weave has a softly brushed appearance, while the irregular linear texture keeps the plain colour from feeling flat. This fabric is catalogued as part of Kirkby Design’s Volume collection. No composition, width, rub-test or performance data has been supplied for this exact colourway.

How to use it

Use Brush Aluminium on an armchair, sofa or headboard where its cool silver tone can complement charcoal, white, pale timber and brushed metal. Keep surrounding textures tactile but restrained so the fabric’s fine surface variation remains visible.

A cool, tactile silver-grey textile that brings subtle surface movement to upholstered pieces.

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.
