Marigold Indigo

Outdoor Performance OutdoorMOF0171-04

Marigold Indigo pairs a pale ivory ground with a cool, muted indigo botanical drawing. The closely spaced flowers and leaves create a softly patterned surface with an airy, chalky contrast rather than a bold blue effect.

About this fabric

This Morris & Co. Outdoor Performance fabric has a 217 gsm weight and 38.5 threads per cm, giving the design a practical, closely formed textile character for upholstery. The image shows small, repeated floral heads and fine leafy stems in subdued indigo against ivory, with the light ground keeping the overall colourway fresh. Its 23 cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeat creates an even, compact rhythm across the cloth. With a usable width of 138.5 cm, it is well suited to upholstered outdoor seating, cushions and coordinated accent pieces.

How to use it

Use Marigold Indigo on outdoor cushions, dining chairs or a relaxed bench where its cool ivory ground can brighten the setting while the muted indigo botanicals add definition. Pair it with weathered timber, pale stone and deep blue-grey accents for a calm, considered scheme.

Use the cool ivory and muted indigo palette to bring crisp botanical detail to outdoor seating and cushions.

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