Lechuza Dalmatian

Name: Lechuza Dalmatian
Brand: Zinc Textile

Lechuza Dalmatian brings a crisp, architectural rhythm to the window, combining a pale ivory ground with a sharply drawn charcoal lattice. In the photographed setting, the pattern reads as light and graphic against dark timber and grey upholstery.

About this fabric

The ivory base has a softly warm, stone-like cast, while the charcoal lines create an interlocking geometric network with a distinctly linear character. Rather than a dense all-over block, the open pattern allows the pale ground to remain visible between the angular crossings. Hung as a full-length curtain, this colourway keeps the window treatment bright while adding definition beside the darker wall panels. Its cool neutral contrast works especially well with the grey chair, black accents and muted green floor visible in the room.

How to use it

Use Lechuza Dalmatian at full length where its ivory ground can lift a darker room without losing visual structure. Pair the charcoal geometry with graphite, weathered timber, pale stone and restrained olive or sage accents.

Use this cool ivory-and-charcoal lattice as a tailored drapery statement against dark timber, stone or softly coloured furnishings.

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