Illusion FabricCCF0585-08

Astral Taupe has a pale, softly greyed taupe ground scattered with dense irregular brown flecks. The close-set marks create a subtle pebble-like texture, while the restrained contrast keeps the colourway calm and considered.

About this fabric

The small brown and mushroom-toned flecks sit across the light taupe ground in an organic, stippled arrangement rather than a sharp geometric pattern. A 306 gsm weight gives this textile useful substance for both upholstery and drapery applications. The design has a 31 cm vertical repeat and 35.5 cm horizontal repeat, with a 142 cm usable width. Its muted taupe colouring reads softly in the image, allowing the darker marks to add definition without becoming dominant.

How to use it

Use Astral Taupe on a reading chair, compact sofa or full-length curtains where its warm-grey taupe base can soften stronger timber and stone finishes. Pair it with oatmeal, mushroom, walnut or muted brown accents to echo the flecked surface.

Use the softly flecked taupe ground to bring quiet pattern and gentle contrast to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

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