Name: Intaglio Powder
Brand: Mark Alexander

Intaglio Powder presents a pale powder-grey ground crossed by delicate linear marks. The lines shift direction within softly defined geometric panels, creating a quiet, architectural effect.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a light, muted grey with a subtle warm-stone cast rather than a stark white or deep taupe. Fine parallel lines form rectangular and angled sections, while the low contrast keeps the geometric composition gentle and open. As a catalogued wallpaper, Intaglio Powder is suited to creating a lightly textured, structured wall surface. Its restrained tone allows the directional pattern to remain visible without dominating the room.

How to use it

Use this powder-grey colourway across a light-filled sitting room, bedroom or study where its fine panelled linework can add structure to otherwise plain walls. Pair it with chalky whites, pale timber and muted green accents for a calm, softly layered scheme.

A pale, softly structured wallpaper that brings quiet architectural rhythm to walls without strong contrast.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Intaglio Powder 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.
