Malibu Fabric

Zumirez Umber presents a softly mottled umber-taupe surface, with fine irregular marks creating gentle tonal movement across the cloth. Its subdued brown-grey depth gives the colourway a calm, grounded character.

About this fabric

The close texture appears finely woven, with tiny darker and lighter flecks softening the overall taupe-brown tone rather than forming a distinct motif. The colour reads warm and muted, while the closely packed surface gives it a composed, lightly tactile presence. It is catalogued as a fabric, and no performance features are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this quiet umber taupe to bring depth to a neutral seating scheme, or pair it with warm stone, mushroom and aged timber tones for a softly layered room. Its restrained surface texture can also add interest to simple curtains without introducing a strong pattern.

A restrained umber-taupe textile with a fine, tactile surface that can work across upholstery and drapery schemes.

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.
