About this fabric
The pattern is formed from large, angular looping bands, with the ivory ground clearly outlining each taupe shape. A visibly nubby, closely woven surface adds tactile depth and softens the strong geometry. This colourway reads as a warm grey taupe rather than a cool stone shade, with the textured yarns creating gentle tonal variation across the bands. The balanced neutral palette makes the motif feel considered and architectural without appearing stark.
How to use it
Pair this warm taupe-and-ivory colourway with oatmeal upholstery, aged timber and brushed metal for a calm, tailored room. Its substantial-looking texture also works well as a coordinating curtain or blind fabric where the geometric pattern can be seen at full scale.
Use the warm taupe and ivory contrast to bring soft structure to seating, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

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.
