Wallpaper - Patterns of the Amazon I

Designed by Kathrine Lovell, our Patterns of the Amazon I wallpaper organizes an eclectic array of hand-drawn geometric panels into a balanced grid. Each rectangular compartment features distinct graphic motifs, including hatched triangles, concentric circles, stylized floral emblems, and rhythmic zigzags. Rendered in soft taupe and earthy ink lines against a pale oyster yellow background, the composition balances varied mark-making with a calm, uniform tone. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our design brings an artistic, mid-century-inspired sensibility to the wall.

In the room

In a living room, we particularly like using this wallpaper across a wide accent wall behind a sofa where the full variety of the panelled motifs can be appreciated at eye level. The structured grid keeps the diverse drawings feeling orderly, while the low-contrast earthy palette prevents the repeat from overwhelming the space. We also see this design working naturally in a home office or study, where the architectural layout of the squares and triangles provides visual interest without creating visual clutter during the workday. Because the tonal contrast is gentle, it sits comfortably on both expansive walls and smaller, framed alcoves.

Styling it

The 1950s geometric character and ink-drawing feel pair effortlessly with organic modern and mid-century modern furnishings. We suggest anchoring the room with warm wood pieces, such as teak, walnut, or oak sideboards and shelving, which echo the earthy warmth of the oyster background. To maintain balance, choose upholstery and larger seating in clean, solid forms rather than competing printed patterns. Understated lighting and matte black or warm brass accents help define the room's geometry, allowing the subtle linework of the wall murals to remain the focal point.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is built around a warm, earthy oyster yellow base layered with soft taupe, muted beige, and charcoal-tinted ink tones. When planning adjacent surfaces, we recommend pairing this design with warm off-whites, creamy stone hues, or muted sand on neighbouring painted walls and woodwork. For a richer, more grounded look in furniture and accent pieces, deep olive green, warm ochre, or burnt terracotta draw out the organic nature of the linework while keeping the overall palette tranquil and cohesive.
