Square Cut Shell

Name: Square Cut Shell
Brand: Mark Alexander

Square Cut Shell brings a pale, shell-like softness to the Collage collection, with a structured arrangement of subtly contrasting square and rectangular panels. Fine linear marks shift across the surface, giving the near-white ground gentle visual movement.

About this fabric

Catalogued as wallpaper, Square Cut Shell is shown in a restrained ivory and warm cream palette with barely-there grey-beige variation. The design is composed of large geometric fields, including panels with fine horizontal striations and others marked by delicate diagonal lines. Its low-contrast surface reads as softly layered rather than boldly patterned, while the close tonal changes add depth to the pale ground. No further performance or construction specifications are supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Square Cut Shell across a whole room when a calm, lightly architectural backdrop is wanted, or place it behind pale timber and natural linen to echo its warm shell tone. Its subtle panel effect can also add quiet definition to a hallway or bedroom without introducing a strong accent colour.

Use its softly textured shell-white ground to bring quiet structure to walls without strong colour contrast.

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