Apolline Silver
Also available in:
Apolline Silver is a gray wallpaper that combines a concrete look with marble veining. The surface reads as poured concrete from a few steps back, with the mottled shading and faint clouding that raw cement takes on as it cures, while closer up the marble lines break up the field and keep it from looking flat. The whole design stays in one tonal family, so the wall holds together as a single quiet surface rather than a pattern with a repeat you can pick out.
Pattern and color
Gray is the only color at work here, shifting between lighter and darker passages across the sheet. That makes it easy to build around: white trim, black metal, oak, walnut and brass all sit against it without clashing. Because there is no strong motif, the paper works as a background for artwork, open shelving and furniture with visible silhouettes. It also holds up over a large uninterrupted area, which is where smaller repeats tend to become insistent. More of this concrete look is available in the wider range, along with other papers in silver gray. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
The mineral surface suits Scandinavian interiors built on pale wood and plain textiles, and it works just as well in boho chic schemes, where rattan, woven baskets, plants and layered rugs need a calm backdrop to stand against. In an office it gives the walls texture without distraction during long stretches at a desk.
- Living rooms, including a single accent wall
- Bedrooms, behind the headboard or across all four walls
- Hallways and entryways
- Home offices and study corners
In a living room it works well behind a sofa or around a TV unit, where the gray keeps dark electronics from standing out too sharply. In a bedroom the muted tone keeps the walls restful and leaves bedding and curtains to carry any color in the scheme.
