Wallpaper is an impactful way of adding a splash of colour and personality into your interior.

From bold florals to contemporary prints, wallpaper sets the tone for your home. And with so much variety to choose from, there is statement wallpaper to suit every taste. 

With wallpaper making an outstanding comeback, we have handpicked a selection of our top picks, along with styling ideas that are certain to stand out in your home.

 

Strawberry Thief Wallpaper

If you’re looking to make a statement, the iconic Strawberry Thief wallpaper does just that.

Big on personality, this eye-catching floral design is a definite favourite originally designed by William Morris. Strawberry Thief took inspiration from the cheeky thrushes that Morris found stealing fruit in the kitchen garden of his countryside home.

That playful woodland feel is beautifully translated in shades of indigo blue, green and red that brighten up any room. The symmetry of this wallpaper creates a sense of balance and grounds its surroundings. 

 

Woodland Chorus Wallpaper

If you’re looking to add a lively, yet sophisticated feel to your interior, you should opt for a full-scale pattern.

We love the Woodland Chorus wallpaper. Embracing the nature of our favourite British Birds, this statement-making wallpaper gives off a homely woodland feel with the perfect balance of flora and fauna.

Furthermore, larger wallpaper patterns are extremely eye-catching and often depict a story. This stunning wallpaper print shows a woodpecker, a wren, a robbin, a thrush and a pair of nesting blue tits making their home in a modern tree of life. 

Every fine detail of The Woodland Chrous design was painted with watercolour. As a result, the intricate design was then digitally printed to achieve the nuances of the artwork and the number of natural colours and tones in the design.

 

Multi Stem Wallpaper

Adding colour to your decor is an impactful way to make a statement in your home. And what better way to stand out than with the iconic prints of Orla Kiely.

The Multi Stem Wallpaper is a popular design that is much loved for its graphic feel and bold colour. 

Bright colours are extremely versatile when it comes to interiors. Consequently, they help to open up the space and make the room feel brighter. In fact, it has been known that multi-coloured schemes create an inviting feel.

The ingenious use of multi-colours allows this wallpaper to fit around most living room landscapes. To tie the look together, try pairing your wallpaper with complementing prints.

The Multi Stem cushion embraces the classic playfulness of Orla Kiely that blooms with striking colour tones. This 100% cotton cushion is certain to make a statement alongside the Multi Stem wallpaper.

 

Chestnut Tree Wallpaper

If you’re looking to create a more elegant feel, the Chestnut Tree Wallpaper exudes sophistication with a striking floral pattern.

Floral prints are a much-loved style choice for home interiors. This is because incorporating florals into your interior creates a calm, relaxing feel in your home.  

This mesmerising print is part of the Woodland Walk collection. It shows a trail of horse blossom painted in watercolour with pencil detailing. The earthy feel of this wallpaper creates a tranquil statement that not only looks beautiful, but brings a calming presence into your home.

 

Styling Ideas

Introduce a Feature Wall

Feature walls – also known as accent walls – are back and making an impact once more.

And if you’re looking to create a stand-out statement in your interior, a feature wall allows you to do just that. Designed to give your room an instant refresh, they can enliven your home with unique textures, shapes and colours.

We love the Brophy Trellis wallpaper. Its unique design partners beautifully with the neutral wall colour, highlighting the archway with a deep teal blue. This striking colour pairing provides depth to the room along with a touch of sophistication.

Not only are they extremely beautiful, but they also have many other benefits. Here is our rundown of the aspects that make feature walls an extremely good idea.

 

Benefits of Feature Walls

High Impact, Low Cost: Depending on the material you use, feature walls can actually be of a low cost. They are an inexpensive way to incorporate colour and pattern into your home.

Enhancing Your Space: Feature walls can be used to define different areas of your home and showcase its uniqueness. This is common for kitchens, archways and other architectural features that may feel impossible to style or hide.

An Anchor for Your Room: A feature wall also has the power to bring a room together. When paired with the right furniture, feature walls definitely tie the knot in piecing your room together.

Separating Spaces: Open plan living has been one of the most popular trends in recent times, and we can definitely see why. If you have a large open plan area, a feature wall can help create a transition between two rooms whilst still giving a sense of space.

 

Complementing Colours

If you’re struggling to choose between wallpaper or paint – why not get the best of both worlds?

Pairing your wallpaper with complementing paints is a great way to create a balance between colour and pattern.

Ultimately, you should look for a colour that stands out in your wallpaper. This will act as the accent colour you can use throughout your decor to tie your room together.
