About this fabric

The swatch shows an all-over vertical design made from irregular streaks, fine lines and softly blurred bands rather than a defined geometric motif. Its blue-grey ground reads cool and subdued, while lighter grey passages catch the eye and prevent the colourway from appearing flat. The visible woven texture adds a gently tactile, layered finish, with the darker striations creating quiet movement across the cloth.

How to use it

Use 05 Rain to bring a calm, mineral blue-grey tone to a contemporary sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain. Pair it with chalky whites, pale woods and charcoal accents to echo the swatch’s light-and-dark vertical variation.

A cool, weathered blue-grey that brings layered vertical texture to upholstery, curtains and relaxed modern schemes.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside 05 Rain 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.
