About this fabric

This colourway reads as a pale warm greige with a muted taupe cast, avoiding the colder look of a pure grey. Its small-scale pattern is made from irregular broken rectangles and short linear marks, creating a quietly structured, woven-looking surface. The low contrast keeps the design understated from a distance, while the varied lines and softly mottled shading provide closer visual interest. As part of the Kabu Wallcoverings Black Edition, it offers a restrained textured finish for a calm, considered wall scheme.

How to use it

Pair this warm greige-taupe wallpaper with veined marble, charcoal accents and dark wood to bring out its softly mineral, understated character.

Use the warm greige-taupe ground as a quietly textured backdrop alongside marble, dark timber or aged metal.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
