Baldessari Carnival

Name: Baldessari Carnival
Brand: Zinc Textile

Baldessari Carnival brings a lively, tightly repeated pattern to the sofa shown here, where navy, red, mustard, turquoise and cream marks interlock across a dark ground. Its woven-looking surface gives the colourway a tactile, graphic presence rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

In this image, the design is built from compact, irregular brick-like strokes arranged in a dense horizontal repeat. Deep navy and blue lines anchor brighter red, ochre-mustard, turquoise and cream accents, creating a warm, energetic balance with plenty of visual depth. The close pattern reads as highly graphic from a distance, while the varied coloured marks become more intricate up close. The supplied catalogue identifies this item as Fabric; no performance features or further specification data are noted.

How to use it

Use Baldessari Carnival on a tailored sofa or occasional chair where its warm, jewel-toned pattern can act as the room’s main graphic statement. Echo the navy in cushions or joinery, and temper the red, mustard and turquoise with wood, clay and muted plaster tones.

Its warm jewel-toned geometry brings graphic energy to tailored upholstery.

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