About this fabric

This Mark Alexander wallpaper shows a narrow horizontal grasscloth texture rather than a printed motif, creating a calm, linear rhythm across the wall. The Loam colourway combines olive, taupe and brown notes, with darker threads and lighter flecks adding depth without strong contrast. Its restrained, weathered tone feels grounded and quietly atmospheric, while the directional weave catches the light in delicate bands. No performance features or further specification data were supplied for this wallcovering.

How to use it

Pair the muted olive-taupe tone with warm timber, aged brass and chalky neutrals for an earthy interior, or use it to soften a room with darker brown furnishings.

Use this earthy olive-taupe wallcovering to bring quiet horizontal texture and natural depth to a room.

Pairs well with

Burlap Wallcovering Loam 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.
