Nola Taupe

Alonso FabricCCF0397-16

Nola Taupe has a pale, warm taupe ground with a delicate blush cast and softly clouded surface markings. Its fine grain catches the light subtly rather than forming a defined motif.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a light pink-tinged taupe, with softly varied beige and ivory areas giving the surface gentle depth. A fine, grainy texture is visible across the cloth, while irregular cloudy patches create an understated abstract effect. At 304 gsm and 140 cm usable width, it has the substance of a versatile mid-weight textile for upholstery or drapery. The pattern repeat is 0 cm vertically and horizontally, so the tonal surface can be handled without matching a recurring design.

How to use it

Use Nola Taupe to soften an upholstered chair, sofa or headboard, or make relaxed curtains where its blush-beige tone can sit alongside ivory, warm wood and muted rose accents.

A softly mottled pink-taupe textile that brings quiet tonal texture to upholstery, curtains and cushions.

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