About this wallpaper

The cool blue background gives this colourway a quiet, airy depth, while the coral-pink fruits provide warm points of contrast across the repeating arrangement. Blue-green leaves overlap the tan-brown branches, creating a softly layered surface rather than a flat graphic effect. This wallpaper has a useable width of 52 cm, a standard length of 10.05 m and a 46 cm vertical pattern repeat. At 150 gsm, it is specified as a lightweight wallpaper suitable for continuous botanical wall coverage.

How to use it

Use it to bring a fresh blue-green note to a bedroom, study or garden-facing sitting room, balancing the coral fruits with warm ivory, pale timber and muted terracotta accents. The cool ground also works well with soft grey-blue upholstery and natural woven textures.

A cool blue botanical ground, enlivened with coral fruit and delicate cream blossom details.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Arbutus Blue/Pink without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
