About this fabric
The swatch shows an even, finely grained weave in a cool blue-grey tone, with subtle shifts between slate, grey and softened teal. The surface is matte rather than shiny, so the colour reads calm and controlled rather than decorative. As a catalogued fabric with no performance features noted, its character here comes from the understated weave and versatile mid-weight appearance. The unpatterned face can sit comfortably where a quiet, tailored textile is wanted.
How to use it
Pair Town Tempest with chalky whites, pale timber and brushed metal for a cool, composed scheme. Its muted blue-grey depth also works well against warm oak or camel accents, where the contrast gently lifts the colour.
Use this cool blue-grey plain weave to bring a calm, tailored note to seating, blinds or curtains.

Pairs well with
Town Tempest 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.
