About this wallpaper

The wallpaper is predominantly a muted greige-taupe, reading light and softly cool rather than warm or saturated. Fine horizontal bands extend across the surface, creating a delicate linear rhythm reminiscent of grasscloth. Small brown-grey flecks, broken marks and uneven changes in tone give the otherwise restrained colourway a quietly organic depth. As a wallpaper, it offers a textural backdrop without introducing a strong repeated motif.

How to use it

Use this pale taupe colourway across a full wall or as a calm backdrop behind natural wood and softly coloured upholstery. The fine horizontal texture works especially well where subtle surface detail is preferred over a bold pattern.

A softly weathered taupe wallcovering that brings quiet horizontal texture and natural tonal variation to a room.

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.
