How to Choose the Right Wallpaper?

Bold or botanical? Moody or modern? With so many beautiful (if we do say so ourselves…) wallpapers to choose from, picking the one can feel like a lot - but we’re here to help.

Whether you’re transforming a whole room or creating a statement wall, our guide will walk you through what to consider.

1. Start with your space

Consider your room’s natural light, size and purpose. 

Dark and dramatic patterns add cosy drama to larger spaces

Lighter or botanical prints can open up small rooms and hallways

Want a quick win? Powder rooms and entryways are perfect for a bold splash

2. Think about the feeling

How do you want the room to feel?

Calming and grounding - try nature-inspired neutrals or earthy florals

Energised and expressive - go for high-contrast colours and bold patterns

Luxurious and moody - lean into deep tones and maximalist florals

3. Match your interior style

Wallpaper should work with your existing decor (or dream one!)

Love vintage and eclectic? Try wild florals or chinoiserie-inspired prints

Minimal but not boring? Go for textural patterns or subtle botanicals

Full-on maximalist? Dive into bold animal prints or large-scale murals

4. Still not sure? Order samples!

See how the pattern looks in your light, with your furniture, and at different times of the day, Trust us - it’s worth it.
