Ori Indigo

Name: Ori Indigo
Brand: Mark Alexander

Ori Indigo reads as a softly weathered taupe-grey wallpaper, its fine vertical texture giving the surface a quiet, paper-like depth. In the image, the restrained colour sits naturally against dark ribbed timber and warm ceramic vessels.

About this fabric

The wallpaper is shown in a muted taupe-grey tone, balanced between warm beige and cool grey rather than appearing strongly coloured. Its close vertical striation creates a subtle paperweave effect, with delicate tonal variation visible across the broad wall panel. There is no prominent printed motif; the interest comes from the tactile-looking linear surface and its softly irregular finish. Against the dark timber, Ori Indigo feels calm, architectural and quietly refined.

How to use it

Use this taupe-grey colourway across a feature wall where its fine vertical texture can soften darker wood, walnut furniture and aged ceramic accents without competing with them.

A softly weathered taupe-grey ground with fine vertical texture, well suited to calm, textural interiors.

Ori Indigo 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.
