Shifu Bark

Shifu Bark presents a warm taupe-beige ground with a densely layered, crosshatched texture. The close, irregular pattern gives the surface the softly tactile look of natural bark and woven fibres.

About this wallpaper

This Mark Alexander Paperweave colourway is catalogued for wallpaper use and is shown here in a muted taupe-beige shade. Fine horizontal and vertical threads create a small-scale grid, while subtle tonal variation keeps the surface from looking flat. The warm beige base is deepened by darker taupe flecks, giving the colourway an earthy, gently weathered character. No additional performance features or specification data have been supplied for this design.

How to use it

Use Shifu Bark across a full wall or as a quiet backdrop to timber, linen and stone finishes. Its warm taupe-beige tone works especially well where a room needs texture without a strong pattern contrast.

The softly mottled taupe-beige ground brings a natural, quietly textured finish to walls.

Pairs well with

Shifu Bark 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.
