About this fabric

This colourway reads as earthy moss olive, shaded with smoky brown and charcoal flecks rather than a clean or bright green. The surface appears matte and subtly irregular, with fine vertical variation that recalls distressed stone or mineral deposits. Small dark marks are dispersed across the ground, creating gentle movement without a defined repeating motif. Catalogued as wallpaper, Racing offers a restrained, atmospheric backdrop for rooms that suit grounded, natural colour.

How to use it

Use Racing across a study, snug or bedroom to create a quiet, enveloping backdrop, pairing its moss-olive tone with aged timber, warm neutrals and dark metal accents. Keep surrounding patterns simple so the wallcovering’s weathered vertical texture remains visible.

Its subdued olive ground and weathered mineral texture bring earthy depth to walls without a strong repeating motif.

Pairs well with

Oolite Matt Wallcovering Racing 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.
