Fabric Edit 25 / November 18, 2026

Clay Conversation Room
Mandarine geometry, tiramisu panels, and tan woven texture for a warm conversation room without seasonal cliches.
Design Story
Clay color is most convincing when it is treated as architecture.
Pyramid Mandarine gives one broad Roman a clear geometric pulse. Dow II Tiramisu quiets the side panels, Willow Tan adds a smaller woven repeat, and Wool Spun Tan connects the window to low upholstered seating. The color feels year-round because the room uses plaster, smoked oak, and blackened bronze instead of seasonal decor.
Palette Logic
55% pale clay and plaster, 25% tiramisu, 15% mandarine, 5% tan weave.
Pale clay, mandarine, tiramisu, tan, warm white, smoked oak, and blackened bronze.
Fabric Palette
Four coordinated roles
The web article keeps the marketing story, then surfaces the technical fabric notes dealers need before recommending the look.
Statement Roman Shade
Pyramid Mandarine
Use the mandarine pyramid pattern on one broad Roman where the 12.6-inch repeat can remain legible and evenly scaled.
Material Note
110 in. width, 9.3 oz/sq yd, 100% Polyester. Repeat: 12.6 in. H x 12.6 in. V. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available. Review motif placement because shade construction can interrupt the pattern.
Plain Side Panel
Dow II Tiramisu
Dow II Tiramisu frames the geometric shade with a warmer plain and connects it to smoked oak and leather tones.
Material Note
110 in. width, 10.4 oz/sq yd, 92% Polyester 8% Linen. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available.
Small Woven Bridge
Willow Tan
Willow Tan repeats the warm color at a much smaller scale, useful when the room needs texture without another statement.
Material Note
110 in. width, 9.2 oz/sq yd, 30% Cotton 70% Polyester. Repeat: 1.77 in. H x 2.16 in. V. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available. Review motif placement because shade construction can interrupt the pattern.
Tan Ground
Wool Spun Tan
Wool Spun Tan is the quiet woven ground that prevents the clay and mandarine story from becoming visually hot.
Material Note
110 in. width, 8.7 oz/sq yd, 100% Polyester. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available.
Dealer Script
Put the mandarine pattern on one Roman, frame it with tiramisu plains, and repeat the warm tone in upholstery and wood rather than adding themed accessories.
