About this fabric

The colour sits between olive, khaki and subdued moss, with gently lighter golden areas catching across the surface. Its abstract patchwork is made from irregular rectangular sections rather than a fixed motif, giving the design a quiet, fragmented rhythm. Fine vertical lines and tonal flecks add visible depth, while the low-contrast palette keeps the overall effect restrained and earthy. The structured woven appearance makes this colourway particularly suited to upholstery.

How to use it

Pair Portland Cypress with warm timber, aged brass and natural linen, allowing its muted olive depth and weathered golden highlights to anchor a calm, textural room.

Use this richly textured olive colourway to bring softly weathered depth to upholstered seating and occasional chairs.

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