Kobe Wallcovering Indigo presents a deep, cool indigo-grey surface marked by fine horizontal striations and broad, irregular bands. The layered linear effect gives the dark colour subtle movement rather than a flat appearance.

About this fabric

The ground reads as a near-charcoal indigo, with a restrained blue cast that becomes more apparent across the lighter horizontal sections. Closely spaced lines run across the image, creating a fine textured effect, while wider bands interrupt the surface at uneven intervals. These tonal shifts give the wallpaper a quiet sense of depth and a gently weathered, graphic character. It is catalogued as wallpaper, with no performance features noted.

How to use it

Use this deep blue-grey indigo on a feature wall where its horizontal banding can add depth without introducing a busy motif. It would sit comfortably with charcoal, smoked timber, aged metal and soft blue-grey furnishings.

A cool, dark indigo ground with layered horizontal bands that bring quiet structure to a wall.

Pairs well with

Kobe Wallcovering Indigo 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.
