Racer Taupe
Racer Fabric
Racer Taupe combines a warm taupe-brown tone with flowing, raised ribs that sweep across the surface in broad, organic bands. The close linear texture gives the colourway visible depth as the light moves over it.

About this fabric
Catalogued as Fabric, Racer Taupe has a substantial-looking surface defined by fine vertical ribs and wider, undulating bands. Its taupe-brown colouring sits between soft brown and muted grey, creating a grounded shade with gentle tonal variation rather than a flat appearance. The raised lines catch the light along their edges, while the darker channels emphasise the fabric’s flowing movement. No composition, width or rub-test data is supplied, and no performance features are noted.
How to use it
Use this warm taupe-brown colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its rippling rib texture can be seen up close. Pair it with dark timber, aged metal and soft cream or stone textiles to draw out its earthy depth.
The warm taupe-brown ground and flowing ribbed texture bring depth to upholstered seating and occasional chairs.

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