About this fabric

The narrow vertical stripes are tightly packed across the cloth, creating a lively pattern that reads as a textured field from a distance and reveals varied colour lines up close. Chilli red and coral provide the strongest note, while rust, brown, cream and grey add depth and prevent the palette from appearing flat. The visible surface has a fine woven texture, and the vertical layout gives the design a clear sense of direction. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so intended upholstery or drapery use should be assessed alongside the project's practical requirements.

How to use it

Pair Carioca Chilli with warm neutrals, tobacco leather or aged timber to balance its saturated red-and-coral warmth. Its fine vertical lines can bring height and movement to a blind, curtain, occasional chair or coordinating cushions.

Use the warm chilli, rust and coral striping to add lively vertical movement to upholstery, cushions or curtains.

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.
