Shade Storm
Nuance Fabric
Shade Storm is a pale, cool grey textile with a remarkably quiet presence. Its close, even surface gives the colour a soft, misted appearance rather than a sharp or silvery contrast.

About this fabric
The swatch shows a fine, closely woven texture with only a subtle shift in tone across the surface. Its cool grey colour reads light and restrained, while the delicate grain adds just enough depth to prevent it appearing flat. The overall effect is refined and discreet, with the texture becoming more apparent as the light moves across it. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so suitability should be assessed against the intended application.
How to use it
Pair this pale cool grey with chalk whites, soft stone and brushed metal for a calm, contemporary scheme. Its muted tone is especially well suited to full-length curtains where the fine surface can catch changing daylight gently.
Use this pale cool grey for understated curtains or softly tailored window treatments.
Pairs well with
Shade Storm is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
