About this fabric

This Mallory Stripes colourway is a restrained old blue, softened with grey so it reads quiet and lightly atmospheric rather than bright or saturated. Fine vertical lines run closely across the visible surface, creating subtle direction and a slender sense of height. Made from 100% paper, it has an approximate vertical and horizontal repeat of 0cm. The pale tone and understated linear texture keep the pattern smart while allowing the wall to retain a calm, airy quality.

How to use it

Pair this cool blue-grey wallpaper with chalky whites, pale timber and soft grey upholstery for a serene room scheme. Its fine vertical rhythm is especially effective on a study wall, bedroom surround or narrow hallway where a quiet sense of height is useful.

Use this cool, pale blue-grey stripe to create a calm, quietly tailored backdrop in bedrooms, studies or hallways.

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.
