Illusion FabricCCF0605-04

Nexus Midnight is a cool, deep blue woven fabric patterned with tightly packed charcoal and blue chevrons. Its textured surface gives the colourway a layered, almost mineral depth rather than a flat navy appearance.

About this fabric

The dense woven face is built from repeating zigzag lines, with the charcoal detailing sharpening the midnight-blue ground and creating a quietly graphic finish. The compact pattern has a 1.5cm vertical repeat and a 4.3cm horizontal repeat, so the chevrons read as a consistent fine-scale texture across upholstery. At 306gsm, with a 142cm usable width, this fabric has the visual substance suited to tailored seating and structured furniture pieces. The standard length is 30m.

How to use it

Pair this cool midnight blue with smoked timber, charcoal piping or brushed metal for a restrained, contemporary scheme. Its small chevron scale works particularly well on sofas, occasional chairs and headboards where the woven texture can be seen up close.

Use this cool midnight blue zigzag weave to bring graphic depth to tailored seating and darker interiors.

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