Z Suede Aviator is a deep blue-green textile with a quiet, suede-like surface and a cool charcoal cast. Its plain face allows the subtle nap and tonal variation to provide the visual interest.

About this fabric

The swatch appears as a dark blue-green teal, softened by grey undertones rather than a bright or saturated blue. A fine, brushed nap creates gentle cloudy shifts across the surface as the light changes, giving the plain fabric depth without a visible motif. The dense-looking face and subdued sheen make it well suited to upholstery applications. Its restrained colour reads polished and contemporary, particularly against pale neutrals, warm timber or darker metal finishes.

How to use it

Use Aviator on a tailored sofa, armchair or ottoman where its cool blue-green depth can anchor a room without introducing a strong pattern. Pair it with chalky creams, smoked greys and warm natural wood to balance its charcoal-leaning tone.

Use this deep blue-green upholstery to bring cool, understated depth to contemporary seating and occasional pieces.

Pairs well with

Z Suede Aviator is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
