Outline Fabric

About this fabric

Across the swatch, small rectangular and square sections form an irregular geometric field in closely related grey tones. Some blocks appear slightly lighter or darker as the fine lines change direction, creating a restrained cubist effect rather than a bold graphic. The surface reads as a tightly woven textile, with a subtle tactile texture visible throughout the close-up. Its cool grey colour and low-contrast pattern give the fabric a composed, contemporary character.

How to use it

Use Cubist Storm on a tailored chair, sofa or headboard where its cool grey tone can provide a calm architectural base. Pair it with charcoal, pale stone and brushed metal for a crisp, tonal scheme.

Its cool storm-grey ground and tonal block pattern bring quiet 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 Cubist Storm 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.
