Boardwalk Grey Mist

Name: Boardwalk Grey Mist
Brand: Mark Alexander

Boardwalk Grey Mist has a cool, misted grey ground with irregular pale vertical markings running across the cloth. Its softly textured weave gives the colourway a layered, tactile appearance rather than a flat grey finish.

About this fabric

The pattern is formed from broken, elongated bars and fine vertical striations, creating a restrained architectural rhythm across the surface. Charcoal and mid-grey threads deepen the ground, while lighter grey and near-white marks catch the light in uneven bands. The visible weave has a dry, tactile quality suited to upholstery-led interiors. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this cool grey colourway to bring gentle contrast to darker timber, blackened metal or warm ivory accents. Its pale broken markings can soften a tailored chair, headboard or occasional upholstered piece without introducing a strong colour.

A cool, textural grey with broken pale markings that brings quiet structure to contemporary upholstery.

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