Clotilde Grey White
Also available in:
Clotilde Grey White is a cloud-patterned wallpaper in white and gray. The forms are soft-edged and irregular, drifting across the wall without a strict repeat that the eye can lock onto, and the two shades shift between one another so that some areas read as near-white and others as a deeper gray. Seen from across a room the effect is closer to a shaded wash than to a defined motif.
Pattern and color
Because the palette stays within white and light gray, the design carries visual movement without adding color to a scheme. That makes it easier to combine than most large-scale patterns: it sits alongside strong upholstery, dark wood or brass fittings without competing for attention. The pattern belongs to the cloud designs in the range, and it works on all four walls as well as on a single accent wall behind a bed or sofa. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Style and rooms
It is filed under maximalist designs, where a covered wall is treated as part of the furnishing rather than as a backdrop, though the restrained coloring means it also holds up in plainer rooms. A design from the Michalsky collection, it suits rooms where you want pattern but not pattern that dates a scheme quickly.
- Living rooms and dining rooms
- Bedrooms, including ceiling application above a bed
- Hallways, kitchens and bathrooms
- Home offices, kids' rooms and nurseries
In a hallway the shifting grays break up a long, narrow run of wall that would otherwise look flat. In a nursery the clouds give the room a theme that does not need to be replaced once the child grows older.
French design meets German engineering, made entirely in Europe.
