Akata Plaster

Name: Akata Plaster

Akata Plaster is a pale, softly cool wallpaper with a fine botanical pattern drawn in delicate grey lines. Its light ground keeps the dense design airy, while the repeated geometry gives the surface a clear rhythm.

About this fabric

Catalogued as wallpaper, Akata Plaster shows a tightly arranged field of branching foliage, angular stems and slim rectangular outlines. The plaster-grey ground is almost white, with a restrained tonal contrast that lets the botanical marks remain delicate rather than bold. Viewed across the full sample, the overlapping linear motifs create texture through pattern while retaining a clean, considered feel. No performance features are noted for this design.

How to use it

Use Akata Plaster where a pale grey backdrop is wanted with more visual interest than a plain finish, such as a hallway, study or softly lit bedroom. Pair its cool plaster tone with white, chalky wood and muted grey upholstery to preserve its light, graphic character.

Use this pale grey botanical wallpaper to bring quiet pattern and light graphic structure to a room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Akata Plaster without fighting it. 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.
