Tate Fabric

Capstone Lake Grey is a cool, mid-tone grey woven with a finely drawn pattern of interlocking rectangular outlines. Its restrained contrast gives the surface a softly layered, architectural appearance.

About this fabric

The fabric combines stone-grey and slightly lighter threads, creating a gently textured surface rather than a flat, solid colour. Small rectangular forms overlap and turn across the ground in a measured geometric rhythm, with the low contrast keeping the motif understated. The weave catches the light in fine vertical and horizontal striations, adding depth to the cool grey shade. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair Capstone Lake Grey with pale timber, chalky walls and brushed metal for a calm, contemporary scheme. Its cool stone tone also works well on tailored seating or full-length curtains where the subtle geometry can be read at close range.

Use this cool grey geometric weave to add quiet structure to upholstery, cushions or softly tailored curtains.

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