Isala Thunder

Isala Thunder has a cool pale-grey ground scattered with tightly packed charcoal marks. Its small, broken pattern reads as a softly textured weave, with a quiet peppered rhythm across the surface.

About this fabric

Isala Thunder combines a pale, cool grey ground with closely scattered charcoal-grey broken marks, creating a fine, peppered appearance across the swatch. The compact vertical flecks give the surface a gently rhythmic texture rather than a bold motif, while the close tonal contrast keeps the overall effect measured. The visible weave has enough visual substance to suit both upholstery and drapery applications. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so suitability should be assessed against the requirements of the intended project.

How to use it

Use this cool grey and charcoal colourway to bring subtle pattern to a tailored chair, bench or full-length curtain, especially alongside chalky neutrals and dark grey accents.

Pair the cool grey ground and charcoal flecks with pale timber, chalky walls or deep charcoal accents.

Pairs well with

Isala Thunder 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.
