Auburn is the second-palest colour in Parkview Gardens, a warm greige-cream that sits in the narrow gap between a cream and a soft grey. A fleck is worked through the yarn, so rather than one flat tone you get a...

Wave is the darkest colour in the Alexandria range: a mid-dark cool charcoal-grey with no warmth in it at all. It is a decisive choice rather than a safe one. In a media room or a home theatre it is...

Terra is the palest colour in the Alexandria range: a warm cream-oatmeal that reads close to off-white in a bright, north-facing room and warms into a soft biscuit tone under evening light. There is no grey in it, and no...

Shore is a warm mushroom-taupe sitting squarely in the middle of the Alexandria tonal range. Where Shell is a beige taupe, Shore leans further toward mushroom: a softer, slightly dustier brown-grey that behaves as a neutral but never reads cold....

Shell is a warm mid taupe-beige, and it is clearly deeper than Sandy: a full step down in tone rather than a subtle shift. That depth is the reason to choose it. A mid taupe forgives the daily traffic of...

Sandy is a light warm sand-beige, noticeably warmer and pinker than Terra, which is the palest colour in the Alexandria range, without stepping up into the depth of Shell. Put the two swatches side by side and Terra looks like...

Pebble is a soft sage grey-green, and it is the only colour in the Alexandria range with a genuine green cast. That makes it the interesting one. It is muted enough to behave like a neutral in a bedroom, but...

Flow is a warm mid brown-taupe with a visible fleck running through it: the only colour in the Alexandria range where the yarn variation is obvious rather than subtle. Stand back and it reads as a warm mid brown; step...

Dune is a light greige: the cool-side neutral of the Alexandria range, and the colour to reach for when a scheme is built on grey. It sits at roughly the same lightness as Sandy but drops the pink warmth, which...

Breeze is a mid sage-grey, greyer and cooler than Pebble, which is the other colour in the Alexandria range carrying a green cast. Think of the two as a pair: Pebble is the sage, Breeze is the sage that has...

Water Front takes the cool grey of Central Ave several steps deeper, landing in mid-dark territory without ever becoming a charcoal. It is the colour most people are looking for when they say they want a grey carpet that will...

Surf Side is the lightest colour in the Naples range: a pale warm greige that reads as sandy cream in daylight and settles to a quiet oatmeal under lamps. It is warm where Beach Walk is cool and faintly green,...

Pier One is a mid-tone sage: a grey-green with enough warmth in it to stay comfortable rather than clinical. It is the deeper, more confident version of Beach Walk, and where Central Ave is a flat cool grey with no...

Manor Inn is a dark slate with a clear blue undertone, and it is the colour in the Naples range that most often surprises people once it is down. Under a showroom light it can pass for charcoal; in a...

A light beige-taupe with a warm, faintly pink cast, Little Harbour is the colour to choose when a room already leans warm and a grey carpet would fight it. Against Surf Side it is deeper and noticeably less creamy, with...

Downtown is a near-black charcoal, the coolest and cleanest of the two darkest colours in the Naples range. There is no brown in it and no blue: it is a straight deep grey that stops just short of black, so...

Where Downtown is a cool near-black, Cove Beach is the warm one. It is a very dark charcoal with an unmistakable brown thread running through it, closer to the colour of wet sand at dusk than to soot, and that...

Central Ave is the plain, honest mid grey of the Naples range, and that is exactly its value. There is no green in it as there is in Beach Walk and Pier One, and no blue as there is in...

Beach Walk is a pale cool grey carried by a quiet green cast, the sort of colour that looks almost white against a dark floor and distinctly grey-green against a white wall. It is the cool answer to Surf Side...

Aqua Lane is the only genuinely blue-toned colour in the Naples range. It is a soft blue-grey rather than an aqua in the swimming-pool sense: gentle, chalky, and clearly blue when you set it beside Central Ave or Water Front,...
