Cairn 02 Storm is a softly textured plain weave in a restrained blue-grey shade. Its cool, misted tone is gently varied by the fine vertical and horizontal threads visible across the surface.

About this fabric

The close weave appears even and lightly brushed, with tiny tonal shifts that keep the otherwise plain surface from looking flat. 02 Storm reads as a cool grey softened with blue, giving the swatch a calm, slightly atmospheric depth rather than a stark silver finish. It is catalogued as a fabric, and no performance features are noted in the supplied data. The mid-weight-looking construction makes this colourway a versatile choice for either upholstery or drapery.

How to use it

Use 02 Storm to cool down warm timber, natural oak or creamy upholstery, or pair it with chalky whites and blue-grey accents for a quiet layered scheme. Its muted tone is especially effective where you want texture without a strong pattern.

A quiet, cool-toned plain weave that brings subtle texture to upholstery, cushions or relaxed window treatments.

Pairs well with

02 Storm 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.
