M559 Ocean
Shibu Fabric
M559 Ocean presents a cool ocean blue-grey ground covered with a tightly repeated interlocking lattice. The close-set pattern reads as textured and quietly architectural across the swatch.

About this fabric
The colour sits between blue and grey, with a restrained, cool depth rather than a bright or saturated ocean tone. Small angular marks form a dense, broken geometric lattice, while the contrasting light and dark areas give the surface a gently dimensional appearance. Its closely woven, structured look is particularly suited to tailored upholstery. No performance features are noted for this exact SKU.
How to use it
Pair M559 Ocean with chalky whites, pale stone and cool timber for a calm contemporary scheme, or use it against charcoal accents to emphasise the lattice pattern. Its blue-grey tone works especially well on clean-lined occasional chairs and headboards.
Use this cool blue-grey geometric weave to bring quiet structure to tailored upholstery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside M559 Ocean 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.
