About this fabric

Broad vertical and horizontal blocks form an oversized checkerboard, while groups of narrow parallel stripes interrupt the larger squares at regular intervals. The silver-grey areas read as muted and cool against the creamy ivory ground, giving the design a restrained contrast rather than a stark black-and-white effect. A subtle metallic-looking surface catches the light across the grey panels, adding depth without overwhelming the orderly geometry. This is the Silver Grey colourway from Kirkby Design’s Wallcoverings Vol 2 collection.

How to use it

Use this cool silver-grey and ivory wallcovering to give a study, hallway or contemporary living space a structured backdrop. Pair it with pale timber, soft grey upholstery and brushed metal accents to echo its quiet reflective quality.

A cool silver-grey geometric wallcovering that brings rhythm and structure without adding strong colour.

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.
