Mecox Wallpaper Blue has a cool, pale blue-grey ground marked by a tightly spaced field of tiny dark blue-grey checks or dots. The close-up view gives the surface a softly textured, almost misted appearance rather than a dominant large-scale pattern.

About this fabric

This wallcovering is made from 100% paper and has an approximately 0cm vertical and 0cm horizontal repeat. In the image, minute dark marks sit closely across the light blue-grey ground, creating an even micro-check effect with subtle tonal variation. The restrained contrast keeps the pattern finely detailed at close range while allowing the overall colour to read as calm and airy from farther away. With no performance features noted, its specification is focused on its paper construction and finely repeated surface.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey colourway across a quiet study, bedroom or hallway where its small-scale pattern can add definition without competing with furniture or artwork. Pair it with chalky whites, pale timber and deeper navy accents to bring out the cool blue notes.

Its cool blue-grey micro-pattern brings quiet definition to walls without a large-scale motif.

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.
