About this fabric

The design is made up of interlocking geometric sections, with diagonal lines breaking larger rectangular and polygonal shapes into smaller facets. Driftwood reads as a warm, muted taupe grey rather than a flat neutral, while the pale sections bring gentle contrast and the deeper grey areas add definition. The surface appears softly textured and matte, giving the linear pattern a quiet, tactile quality rather than a high-shine finish. Catalogued as a fabric, its visible medium-weight character makes this colourway suitable for both upholstery and drapery applications.

How to use it

Use Driftwood on a tailored chair, bench or relaxed curtain where its taupe-grey tone can sit alongside natural wood, stone and off-white upholstery. The angular pattern works especially well as a controlled graphic counterpoint to plain, softly textured furnishings.

Pair the softened taupe-grey ground with warm timber, chalky whites and understated upholstery for a calm, graphic interior.

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