Katama Wallcovering Sepia

Grasscloth Prints Wallpaper

Katama Wallcovering Sepia presents a tightly arranged geometric field of rectangular blocks, each built from fine parallel lines. Its pale, muted sepia-taupe colouring gives the design a softly weathered appearance rather than a high-contrast graphic effect.

About this fabric

The pattern is made from medium-scale rectangular sections that alternate horizontal and vertical linear directions, creating a woven, basket-like rhythm across the surface. In this Sepia colourway, the lines read as soft brown-grey against a light taupe ground, with the close tonal range keeping the overall effect calm and understated. The sample shown measures 36 inches wide by approximately 25 inches high, giving a clear view of the repeated block layout. As a wallpaper from Mark Alexander’s Grasscloth Prints collection, it is suited to adding patterned structure to a wall without introducing a saturated colour contrast.

How to use it

Pair the warm sepia-taupe ground with chalky neutrals, aged timber and natural woven textures. Use it across a study, entrance hall or living-room wall where the directional blocks can provide gentle architectural definition.

Use this muted sepia geometric wallpaper to add quiet structure and warmth to a study, hallway or layered living space.

Pairs well with

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