About this fabric

The shade reads as a restrained airforce blue, softened by a blue-green grey undertone rather than a bright or saturated finish. A close, even grain gives the surface a lightly brushed appearance, while the folds create darker tonal passages and gentle highlights. The fabric falls fluidly in the image, making it particularly suited to drapery. The catalogue identifies this SKU as Fabric; no performance features or further specification data are supplied.

How to use it

Pair Alpaka Airforce with chalky whites, pale timber and cool stone for a calm, coastal-leaning scheme. Its muted blue-grey tone also works well as a soft contrast against charcoal or deep navy.

Use this cool blue-grey fabric for softly draped curtains, blinds or relaxed window treatments.

Pairs well with

Alpaka Airforce is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
