Horace 50cm Cushion Carbon
Chiaroscuro Fabric
Horace 50cm Cushion Carbon combines an ivory-toned ground with strongly drawn charcoal geometry. Its repeating lattice of angled lines, arches and outlined forms gives the surface a crisp, architectural character.

About this fabric
The pattern is built from interlocking charcoal lines that create linked hexagonal, arched and diagonal shapes across the pale ground. In this Carbon colourway, the near-black drawing has a cool, softened depth rather than a sharp solid black, allowing the ivory background to remain visible between motifs. The close view shows a subtly tactile, matte-looking surface, while the medium-scale repeat keeps the design legible without overwhelming the fabric. The balanced contrast gives this textile a smart, graphic presence suited to both upholstery and drapery.
How to use it
Pair the cool ivory and charcoal palette with charcoal timber, blackened metal or quiet grey upholstery for a composed contemporary room. Used on a cushion or occasional chair, the linear repeat adds definition without introducing a brighter accent colour.
Use this cool, graphic neutral to bring structured contrast to upholstery, cushions or relaxed curtains.

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.
