About this fabric

The design is formed from tightly packed, irregular rectangular grid motifs, giving the cloth a precise but subtly varied rhythm. Its dark marine tone reads as blue-charcoal in the shadowed areas, while the ochre details catch the light across the surface. The close, structured weave has the visual weight of an upholstery textile rather than a fluid curtain cloth. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Urban Marine on a tailored armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its cool depth can anchor pale timber, warm tan leather and brushed metal. Repeat the small ochre notes with cushions or accessories in tobacco, camel or muted rust.

The deep marine ground and fine ochre grid bring tailored structure to contemporary upholstery.

Pairs well with

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