Nexus Espresso
Illusion FabricCCF0605-01
Nexus Espresso layers dark espresso brown with charcoal-grey detail in a tightly woven, fine-scale chevron. The closely spaced zigzags create a gently textured surface, with lighter threads catching across the darker ground.

About this fabric
This colourway reads as a deep, muted espresso brown softened by charcoal and grey flecks, rather than a flat black. Fine contrasting yarns trace the compact chevron lines, giving the surface a subtle broken rhythm and a lightly dimensional appearance. The pattern repeat measures 1.5cm vertically and 4.3cm horizontally, keeping the zigzag motif small and controlled across a piece. At 306gsm and 142cm usable width, the fabric has the substance for upholstery while remaining suitable for coordinated drapery; the standard length is 30m.
How to use it
Use Nexus Espresso on a tailored armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its dark brown-charcoal depth can anchor warmer timber and stone tones. Repeat the small chevron in cushions or full-height curtains when a room needs graphic texture without a large-scale pattern.
The deep espresso-charcoal tone and compact chevron weave bring graphic definition to upholstery, cushions and coordinated window treatments.

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