About this fabric

This colourway has the earthy depth of paprika, with coppery terracotta shifting into darker rust-brown areas across the ground. Stepped rectangular and labyrinth-like motifs are picked out in fine, irregular light lines, creating a graphic pattern that remains softened rather than stark. Small flecks and variations across the surface give the design a tactile, textile-like appearance in the swatch. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Paprika to add warmth and visual rhythm to a study, dining room or snug, pairing its rusty terracotta tone with dark timber, aged brass and cream upholstery. Its softened geometric contrast works especially well where a patterned wall should feel layered rather than high-contrast.

A warm paprika ground and softly contrasting stepped geometry bring depth and rhythm to walls.

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