About this fabric

The swatch shows a close, even weave with tiny tonal flecks and a subtly irregular thread texture across the surface. Its blue-grey tone sits between slate and softened denim, reading cool rather than bright or saturated. Fine changes in the weave catch the light lightly, adding depth while keeping the overall effect quiet and restrained. No further specification data is supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair this cool blue-grey with chalky whites, pale oak and soft stone for an airy scheme, or use it against charcoal and aged metal for a more atmospheric room. The understated plain weave works equally well on seating and full-length window treatments.

Use this cool, quietly textured blue-grey as a calm foundation for upholstered seating, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

M649 Typhoon 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.
