About this fabric
This is a substantial-looking geometric weave, built from alternating rectangular sections rather than a printed motif. The dominant taupe-brown ground has a warm chestnut cast, while darker olive-grey bars and flecks give the surface a gently mottled, tactile appearance. The medium-scale block pattern reads as structured but not rigid, making it well suited to tailored upholstery where texture can be appreciated at close range. It is catalogued as a fabric from Mark Alexander’s Moderna collection; no composition, width, rub test or other technical specification was supplied.
How to use it
Use M570 Chestnut on a compact sofa, dining chair or upholstered bench, pairing its warm brown base with walnut, natural oak and muted olive textiles. Keep surrounding patterns restrained so the irregular block weave remains the focal texture.
A tactile chestnut-toned upholstery weave that suits tailored seating, benches and occasional chairs alongside warm wood and olive accents.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside M570 Chestnut 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.
