Foxcroft wallpaper features a haute couture-inspired pattern of entwined bits, stirrups, reins, and leathers. The Wheat + Berry colorway is versatile and, depending on paint pairings, can suit a variety of settings–from a paneled study to a bold half bath to a cosmopolitan commercial interior.
Paired with London Clay paint, Foxcroft feels sophisticated and traditional. Dark taupe millwork grounds the wallpaper, creating the classic aesthetic typical of equestrian lounges and English country club style.

There isn’t a right or wrong answer when it comes to paint. There is only a preference for mood. Paired with a deep, traditional red, Foxcroft takes on a rich heritage style reminiscent of English country homes. Combined with a warm beige neutral, the look becomes softer and airier, with a refined Southern horse country feel.

Paint pairings need not be limited to millwork. A painted dresser in a rich gold hue complements Foxcroft’s brass stirrup and bit motifs. It adds an interesting pop of color, yet remains timeless.

Which comes first?
Order your wallpaper swatch first. Paint can be adjusted almost endlessly, while wallpaper is less flexible. Finalizing your wallpaper selection first makes it much easier to choose coordinating paint colors.
