About this fabric
The colour sits between warm grey and soft taupe, with a gently dusky quality that keeps the surface feeling calm rather than stark. Fine horizontal and vertical threads create a close, even weave, while tiny tonal variations prevent the cloth from appearing completely flat. There is no visible repeat or motif, so the interest comes from the restrained texture and subtle depth of the colour. This balanced woven appearance makes the fabric suitable for both upholstery and drapery applications.
How to use it
Pair 22 Dusk with chalky whites, mushroom neutrals and softened charcoal for a quietly layered scheme. Its warm grey-taupe tone also works well against natural timber and darker metal accents.
Use this quiet taupe-grey weave to add depth without introducing a visible pattern.

Pairs well with
22 Dusk 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.
