About this fabric

The woven surface is visibly dense and regular, with fine horizontal and vertical threads producing a restrained textile texture rather than a printed motif. Its steel-grey colour reads cool and balanced, while lighter threads gently catch the surface and prevent the shade from appearing flat. The plain construction gives this fabric a neat, tailored character suited to upholstered forms. No additional performance or composition specifications have been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair Durham Steel Grey with pale timber, brushed metal and blue-based neutrals for a crisp, contemporary scheme. On seating, its cool grey tone can act as a composed foundation for warmer cushions or deeper charcoal accents.

Use the cool steel-grey ground to bring a clean, quietly tailored finish to upholstered seating.

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.
