Shiny trapezoids in relief on a matt ground, at a repeat of 7.5 by 9 cm, which is small enough that the pattern behaves as texture from any distance. The contrast is not in colour but in finish: twelve tone-on-tone colourways, each working the difference between gloss and matt rather than between two shades.
The name is doing something. Dada rejected the standards it inherited, and there is a mild irreverence in putting a geometry this playful into a fabric this technical. Flame-retardant polyester at 690 g and 43,000 Martindale, certified for contract upholstery and curtains in the UK, France, Germany and Italy with IMO 8 at sea, and rated for upholstery. 146 cm wide, made in Italy.
