Linara Nori

Name: Linara Nori
Brand: Romo

Linara Nori is a deep charcoal-taupe textile with a restrained, closely woven surface. Its dark, softened tone reads warmer than a pure charcoal, while the fine crosshatch texture adds quiet visual depth.

About this fabric

The swatch shows an even plain weave in a muted charcoal-brown taupe, with tiny interlaced threads creating a discreet grained effect. Light catches the raised fibres gently rather than producing sheen, keeping the surface composed and understated. Its visibly versatile woven handle makes it suitable for both upholstery and drapery. The supplied record lists no performance features for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair Nori with chalky off-whites, warm stone and smoked oak for a calm, tonal room, or use it to ground softer sage and muted blue accents. Its deep taupe character is especially effective on tailored seating or full-length curtains where the woven texture can be seen up close.

Use this deep charcoal-taupe weave to bring quiet depth to tailored upholstery, relaxed curtains or layered neutral schemes.

Linara Nori 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.
