Quagga Fabrics and Wallpapers
Interior Designing in Cape Town

Quagga Fabrics and Wallpapers offers awe inspiring wallpaper and fabric. We take inspiration from our city and home - Cape Town.We bring a fresh approach to surface and pattern design. Our designs are very unique and detailed.

Quagga Fabrics and Wallpapers creates surface design. We create unique patterns that inspire and delight. The name is a portmanteau made up of imagination and paper. Some of the patterns start as dreamy doodles or with a few elements inspired by things close at hand or in mind. After many tweaks and changes, the patterns are set up for printing. If a pattern proves popular, it will be adapted for fabric screen printing; the designs are then printed on linen- style cotton. When we developed the patterns into fabrics, we decided to call ourselves Quagga. In these original designs, we try to blend classic symmetry with something contemporary. Often made up of abstract shapes and recognisable cultural icons, from cows to lighthouses. Many of the patterns convey a love of local flavour and sometimes evoke something quite unique to Cape Town. We have an Etsy shop with products made from our fabrics. The digital printing process for the wallpapers allows a degree of customisation to occur. It is possible to change the colours and the scale of the pattern. It is important to know that the wallpaper is printed in panels to client dimensions and is not available in rolls. This makes things easier for you because working out coverage based on roll size and pattern repeat is not necessary. Bringing home a rural or farm experience well known to many South Africans. Enamel pots and cups have become iconic and fashionable design objects. We think this pattern brings a fresh edge to that trend. The pattern has floral elements mixed with the metallic tea and coffee elements. It would work as well in a conference venue as it would in a nightclub or restaurant. Our wallpaper is custom printed in panels and not rolls. View our upholstery fabric and wallpaper designs here. Our trend setting patterns for curtain fabrics and furniture fabrics give a respectful nod to international trends. Buy our fabric as upholstery material to add personality and your own personal touch to your decor. And be assured of top quality and fantastic workmanship. This design is one of our few photographic type designs. Most of our fabric is printed in a traditional way and customisation is limited. We believe that the layering of pattern is what really brings a space to life. Matching is possible but only encouraged when done subtly. We can do custom fabric colours for orders over 25 metres.
