‘It’s been a true collaboration throughout, from choosing the yarns and weaves to picking out the colors of the carpets and the complementary borders for the rugs,’ says Andréa Childs, Editor of Country Homes & Interiors. ‘I love the deep ochre of Gorse and the soulful blue of Wishing Well, and I’m sure the neutral tones of Thatch and Sapling will be firm favourites with our readers and Fibre customers.’ The collection features two weaves, nubbly soft Twill and stylish Chevron, both suitable for all areas of the home, even high-traffic zones such as hallways and stairs. The seven shades have been designed to work harmoniously together, so you can create a scheme that mixes and matches designs and colors throughout your home.
Choose from seven colors
There are seven colors in The Contemporary Collection from Country Homes & Interiors and Fibre, all available in either a Twill or a Chevron weave. ‘Our colors mirror the rise in warm, earthy tones and our desire to reproduce shades from nature in our own homes,’ says Julian Downes, Managing Director, Fibre. ‘From calming blue to joyful yellows which let the sunshine in, our colors are designed for layering.’ Wishing Well: The softest tone of freshwater blue with just a hint of delicate grey Gorse: The deep ochre hues of flowering gorse Thatch: A beautiful beige with soft straw undertones Travertine: Warm and timeless, a classic cream with a soft honey tone Sapling: A fresh shade of fawn partnered with a subtle touch of green Whisper: Soft on the breeze, a warm and inviting grey with a hint of pink Shingle: A calming yet richly colored taupe
