Town Indigo

Town Indigo is a quiet, cool-toned blue-grey with an indigo cast. Its plain surface shows a close, fine weave and subtle vertical texture rather than a visible motif.

About this fabric

The colour sits between softened slate and deep indigo, giving the cloth a muted, gently shaded appearance rather than a bright blue finish. A fine, even weave is visible across the swatch, with delicate vertical variation that adds surface depth while keeping the design understated. The catalogue records no performance features for this fabric, so its appeal here is the restrained colour and tactile woven surface.

How to use it

Bring Town Indigo into rooms needing cool depth without a strong pattern, pairing it with pale stone, chalk white or warm oak to balance the blue-grey tone.

Use its cool indigo-blue depth alongside chalky neutrals, warm timber and brushed metal.

Pairs well with

Town Indigo 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.
