Stone Workroom Layers
A sand, fawn, and cloud palette for modern workrooms where texture carries the window.
Design Story
A workroom window can feel tailored without turning cold.
Wave Sand gives the Roman shade a quiet architectural texture, Carolina Fawn warms the side panels, Forum Cloud bridges the desk and upholstery details, and Cloud Almost White is the sheer option for a separate glass door or layered drapery window.
Palette Logic
60% warm stone and sand, 30% fawn and cloud texture, 10% taupe, graphite, and pale oak.
Warm stone, sand, fawn, cloud white, taupe, graphite, and pale oak.
Fabric Palette
Four coordinated roles
The web article keeps the marketing story, then surfaces the technical fabric notes dealers need before recommending the look.
Roman Shade Lead
Wave Sand
A small wave texture that gives the Roman shade a tailored surface without becoming a pattern statement. Use it when the room needs a refined, architectural window plane.
Material Note
110 in. width, 15.3 oz/sq yd, 20% wool / 80% polyester. Repeat: 0.79 in. H x 0.39 in. V. Flat, Classic, and Hobbled Roman shades marked Yes; Classic marked Yes**PI.
Warm Side Panel
Carolina Fawn
The fawn plain warms the sides of the window and keeps the workroom from reading too gray. Use as stationary side panels, cushions, or a quieter secondary shade.
Material Note
110 in. width, 8.7 oz/sq yd, 100% polyester. Flat and Classic Roman shades marked Yes; Hobbled marked No.
Cloud Bridge
Forum Cloud
A small-scale cloud texture that connects the sand shade to stone, desk upholstery, and pale oak without adding another strong motif.
Material Note
110 in. width, 9.1 oz/sq yd, 100% polyester. Repeat: 0.59 in. H x 0.43 in. V. Flat, Classic, and Hobbled Roman shades marked Yes.
Separate Sheer Layer
Cloud Almost White
Use this as the quiet sheer on a separate glass door or layered drapery window, not behind the Roman shade in the main treatment.
Material Note
118 in. width, 3.8 oz/sq yd, 100% polyester. Flat Roman marked Yes; Classic and Hobbled marked Yes**LB, so include liner discussion before shade use.
Dealer Script
For a home office or workroom, lead with Wave Sand on the shade, warm the edges with Carolina Fawn, and keep Cloud Almost White as the light layer only where the window needs a separate sheer.
