Horizon is an abstract wallcovering from the Threads Faraway Wallpaper collection, printed on a non-woven ground with a soft, banded quality that echoes its name: broad, atmospheric fields of colour sitting across the width like a low horizon line rather than a fixed motif. The repeat is a generous 70 centimetres, so on the wall the design settles into a slow, easy rhythm rather than a visible grid, in keeping with the hand-worked, earthy character of the wider Faraway family.
The paper is 100 per cent non-woven, 70 centimetres wide, with a 70 centimetre vertical repeat. The page does not give a roll length, but Threads wallpaper of this kind is typically supplied in 10 metre rolls, and we hang it paste-the-wall as standard for a non-woven ground. It comes in three colourways, Marble, Sunset and Mist: Marble is the palest, stone-like option for a whole room, Sunset brings a warm, glowing tone to a north-facing space, and Mist is a soft, atmospheric grey for a bedroom or landing.
We tend to use Horizon on the wall behind a bed, on the long wall of a living room, or in a study where the scale can be read across the room. It works well with a plain linen weave at the window and a textured plain on the seating, so the wall does the talking. Sold by the roll; order a sample before committing to a full room.
With a 70 centimetre repeat, allow one full repeat of waste per drop: on an assumed 10 metre roll that gives around three drops on a standard 2.4 metre wall, so a 4 metre wall needs two rolls. Paste the wall with a non-woven adhesive, butt the joins and smooth out from the centre with a soft brush, and check that every roll is from the same batch before you start.
