Broadway 85
Print Fabric
Broadway 85 combines a softly weathered grey-taupe ground with a repeating damask of pale, finely drawn floral motifs. Subtle vertical striations give the surface a gently textured, chalky depth.

About this fabric
The design features alternating ornate floral medallions and smaller scrolling damask forms, picked out in a light ivory-grey against the darker ground. Its muted taupe tone sits between warm grey and stone, creating a composed, quietly formal impression rather than a stark monochrome effect. Fine linear texture runs through the background, adding movement and allowing the pattern to soften at a distance. No performance features are noted for this fabric.
How to use it
Use this grey-taupe colourway on a classic armchair, occasional upholstery or full-length curtains where its pale damask can bring pattern without strong contrast. Balance it with chalky neutrals, charcoal wood tones or aged brass.
Pair the softly weathered grey-taupe ground with warm ivory, charcoal or aged metallic accents.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Broadway 85 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.
