Raffia
Raffia wallcoverings celebrate the distinctive character of woven natural fibre, creating richly textured surfaces with depth, rhythm and an unmistakably organic quality.
Derived from the leaves of raffia palms, the fibre has a long history within woven craft and decorative applications. Within wallcovering, its structure becomes part of the design, creating surfaces where fibre, colour and texture work together.
Texture, grain, fibre and subtle tonal variation give every natural material its individual character. Samples are the truest way to experience raffia in your scheme.
01
The character of Raffia becomes particularly apparent at close range.
Individual elements within the weave create changes in direction, texture and depth, giving the surface a strong sense of materiality.
Across a larger area, these details combine into a more unified visual rhythm while allowing the woven construction to remain an important part of the overall aesthetic.
02
Colour can significantly change the expression of Raffia while leaving its woven character visible.
Quieter tones allow the fibre structure to create a restrained textural backdrop, while stronger colours can bring greater emphasis to the rhythm and depth of the weave.
In both cases, the material itself remains central to the design.
03
Viewed closely, Raffia reveals the small variations and intersections that give a woven surface its visual depth.
Rather than relying on printed pattern alone, the construction of the material creates movement across the surface and allows texture to become part of the wider interior.
The woven character of Raffia gives the surface its distinctive depth and individuality.
A physical sample provides the clearest way to understand the fibre structure, colour and overall visual character of a particular design before specification.
