Boxgrove Carnival

Name: Boxgrove Carnival
Brand: Zinc Textile

Boxgrove Carnival has a warm ivory ground crossed by vivid, interlocking zigzag ribbons in blue, green, red, ochre and black. The clear contrast keeps this geometric colourway lively and graphic, while the textile surface softens its angular pattern.

About this fabric

Vertical columns of angular bands form repeating zigzag paths, with open diamond-shaped gaps revealing the cream ground between them. Deep blue and green sit alongside saturated red, ochre and black, giving the design a colourful, jewel-like depth rather than a muted appearance. A subtle textile grain is visible across the ground and coloured bands, adding tactile variation to the crisp geometry. No composition, width, rub-test or performance specification is supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this energetic colourway on a statement chair, occasional upholstery or full-length curtains where its warm cream background can balance the saturated bands. Echo one of the deeper blue, green or red tones in cushions or painted joinery, while keeping surrounding surfaces relatively quiet.

Pair the warm cream ground with timber, plain upholstery and accents in deep blue, green or red.

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.
