About this fabric

Catalogued as wallpaper, Duo Acaba Wallcovering Tempest is defined by close horizontal striations rather than a pictorial motif. Its Tempest colourway sits in a subdued grey-green register, with understated taupe and deeper grey tonal shifts visible across the surface. The fine linear texture keeps the shade from reading as flat, while the horizontal direction creates a calm, gently layered impression. Its cool, low-saturation character makes the wallcovering feel composed and quietly atmospheric.

How to use it

Use the cool grey-green Tempest colourway across a study, bedroom or sitting room where its fine horizontal texture can add depth without introducing a strong graphic pattern. Pair it with pale timber, softened black accents and warm neutral upholstery to balance its cooler cast.

Use this cool grey-green wallcovering to bring subtle linear texture and depth to a calm, contemporary room.

Duo Acaba Wallcovering Tempest is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
