Belize Wallpaper Taupe

About this wallpaper

The visible surface shifts between soft taupe, beige and near-cream lines, creating a light, layered appearance rather than a flat block of colour. Its horizontal fibre pattern is irregular and finely drawn, with occasional dark marks that add subtle depth without forming a conventional motif. Supplied at an approximate vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm, it reads as a continuous textural field. The composition is 72% arrowroot and 28% cotton.

How to use it

Use this pale warm taupe as a calm backdrop in rooms with natural timber, linen tones and softly aged finishes. Its fine horizontal texture can add depth to broad walls while keeping the overall scheme light and understated.

Use this softly textured taupe ground to bring quiet warmth and horizontal movement to a room.

Pairs well with

Belize Wallpaper Taupe is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
