Sketch Asphalt

Name: Sketch Asphalt
Brand: Warwick

Sketch Asphalt appears as a cool, charcoal-grey cloth, with its fine crosswise grain shifting subtly across the relaxed folds. The deep tone becomes lighter where the surface catches the light.

About this fabric

Sketch Asphalt reads as a cool, deep charcoal grey, with lighter threads lifting the surface across the cloth. Its close, small-scale woven texture is clearly visible throughout the spread and becomes more dimensional in the gathered folds. The fabric has a supple, medium-looking fall in this photograph rather than a crisp, paper-flat finish. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use this cool asphalt grey to give a sofa, occasional chair or pair of curtains a composed, urban feel. Pair it with pale stone, chalky whites or warm timber to bring out the weave’s subtle tonal variation.

A cool charcoal-grey weave that brings quiet depth to upholstery, cushions or softly falling window treatments.

Pairs well with

Sketch Asphalt 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.
