Racer Graphite

Racer Fabric

Racer Graphite is a deep charcoal textile with a pronounced linear surface. Its closely spaced, gently irregular ribs create movement across the dark ground, while the folds reveal subtle changes between blackened graphite and softer grey.

About this fabric

The fabric is defined by fine vertical striations that ripple rather than running as perfectly straight lines, giving the surface a tactile, corded appearance. In this Graphite colourway, the near-black base is softened by grey highlights along the raised ridges, creating depth without introducing a contrasting pattern. Draped folds show how the texture catches the light in narrow bands, alternating between a dense shadowed finish and a lightly reflective charcoal line. No composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair Racer Graphite with pale stone, smoky grey or warm timber to balance its cool, deep tone. It is especially effective on structured upholstery where the directional ribs can remain visible across the form.

Use this deep graphite shade to add shadow, texture and a 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.
