ARTIST'S CHECK Wallpaper - Carnelian

wallpaper Wallpaper1-WA-ATC-DI-CRN-004-XXX

Artist's Check Wallpaper in Carnelian combines a warm cream ground with deep green and russet-red lines. Its hand-drawn-looking check has a gently irregular rhythm rather than a rigid, mechanical grid.

About this fabric

This House of Hackney wallpaper is defined by medium-scale checks formed from intersecting deep green and russet-red bands over cream. The lines vary subtly in width and waviness across the image, giving the pattern an organic, lightly illustrated quality. Carnelian reads as a warm, earthy colourway: the cream keeps the design open, while the dark green adds depth and the russet accents bring a muted red warmth. The pattern's repeated blocks create a clear graphic structure without losing the softer movement visible in the drawn lines.

How to use it

Use Carnelian across a feature wall where its cream ground can brighten the setting, then echo the deep green and russet-red accents in upholstery, painted furniture or small accessories. It suits rooms that need a warm, characterful check with more colour depth than a simple monochrome design.

Use this warm cream, deep green and russet check to bring graphic character and layered colour to walls.

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.
