About this fabric

The surface is formed from a small interlocking motif that repeats in orderly rows across the swatch. Dark green and almost-black tones dominate, with occasional brighter green highlights catching across the woven texture. The dense, structured appearance reads as better suited to tailored upholstery than to a light, fluid curtain. No composition, width or rub-test data is supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Town - Foret on a structured armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its deep green tone can act almost as a neutral. Balance it with warm timber, aged brass and quieter natural shades to prevent the near-black ground from feeling too stark.

Use its near-black green depth to give tailored seating a grounded, architectural feel.

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.
