SOFT WAVES

It’s the notable ‘artisanal trace of hand’, as Romo describes it, that so suits the interlocki­ng lines flowing across woven raffia in this print. In a muted and warming ochre colour, it delivers cosiness in spades. Part of the new Tabala collection – a striking line-up of similarly elegant and graphic wallcoveri­ng designs – its earthly characteri­stics and tones make it perfect for autumninsp­ired interiors.

One might say it’s the natural choice. Boa wallcoveri­ng, £835 a roll, Romo (romo.com)

DIFFERENT STROKES

Conjuring notions of the deep ocean, this water-like pattern brings an inky blue and white colour palette into the fold, giving an extra air of sophistica­tion to furniture. The pattern is said to be inspired by ‘the billowing sails of traditiona­l Omani sailing boats’ and it has us transporte­d straight to the sea – time to take a seat! Inky Dhow Ripple armchair, £9,000, Bethan Gray (bethangray.com)

WOVEN WONDER

Sweeping onto fabric, the new Valvidia print embodies the trend with gusto in bold orange. While the textile is just one of this season’s contempora­ry designs from French fabric house Casamance, it’s certainly the pattern we’ve underscore­d as a firm favourite. Valvidia fabric, £138.60m, Casamance (casamance.com)
