Acara Fabric

Acara Atlantic has a cool blue-grey ground animated by a tightly woven, broken chevron texture. Its fine surface shifts subtly between Atlantic blue and pale grey as the light moves across the swatch.

About this fabric

The swatch shows a small-scale zigzag weave rather than a bold printed motif, giving the pattern a quiet, closely worked appearance. Blue-grey and muted teal threads are interlaced with lighter flecks, creating a softly mottled surface with gentle depth. The fabric reads as a versatile mid-weight textile from its compact woven construction, making it suitable for both upholstery and drapery. Its cool, restrained colouring brings a tailored feel without appearing stark.

How to use it

Use Atlantic on a streamlined occasional chair, bench or pair of curtains where its blue-grey tone can sit comfortably with chalky whites, stone, charcoal and brushed metal. The small broken chevron adds close-up interest while remaining calm across larger surfaces.

A cool, finely textured woven with a discreet broken chevron that suits tailored upholstery and relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

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