About this wallpaper

Catalogued as wallpaper, this colourway has the quiet, earthy character of parchment shaded towards brown-grey. Fine horizontal fibres run across the surface, creating a closely spaced linear texture that catches the light unevenly rather than appearing flat. The low-contrast taupe-brown ground feels especially atmospheric beside the walnut-toned desk, black lamps and cognac leather chair shown here. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use it across a study, library or reading room where the smoky taupe-brown tone can sit comfortably with dark timber, black metal and aged leather. Its subtle horizontal texture also works well as a restrained backdrop for warm, directional lighting.

Use this softly striated taupe-brown wallcovering to bring quiet depth to studies, libraries and layered, low-lit interiors.

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.
