Wallpaper - Ypres

Our Ypres wallpaper brings a classic ticking-inspired stripe into modern interiors with a distinctive woven textile look. Fine vertical bands in soft duck egg blue, warm coral red, muted taupe, and deep brown alternate across a gentle cream ground, overlaid with a subtle cross-hatch print texture that softens the geometry. The rhythmic variation in stripe widths gives the composition a light, nostalgic character reminiscent of mid-century woven fabrics. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Vertical stripes naturally draw the eye upward, making this design a rewarding choice for rooms where you want to emphasize ceiling height or add clear visual structure. We particularly like it in a hallway or along a staircase, where the continuous vertical rhythm guides movement and keeps narrow passages feeling airy and open.

In a dining room, breakfast nook, or family living room, the balanced density of the stripes allows the pattern to work comfortably across all four walls without feeling overwhelming. The warm cream background keeps the overall contrast gentle, so it sits naturally behind everyday furniture. For a children's bedroom, teenage room, or dedicated home office, the playful mix of pastel and warm tones brings an upbeat, cheerful mood while retaining a timeless, heritage-inspired order.

Styling it

Because the striped motif already provides crisp geometric rhythm and soft visual texture, we like to keep large furniture pieces relatively simple in form. Mid-toned or light natural woods work exceptionally well alongside the taupe and warm coral tones, reinforcing the relaxed, craft-inspired feel of the design.

To maintain balance, pair the wallpaper with plain, unpatterned fabrics on larger elements like sofas, headboards, and long window drapes. If you enjoy layering patterns in a living space or bedroom, smaller accessories such as throw cushions can introduce complementary geometric micro-patterns or simple solids that pick up on the fine line work in the motif.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by an ivory cream base, layered with soft duck egg blue, warm coral, sandy taupe, and narrow pinstripes of deep espresso brown.

When choosing paint colors for adjacent walls, trim, or skirting boards, a warm off-white or light parchment keeps the space cohesive and allows the stripes to take center stage. For a slightly bolder look, drawing out the muted blue-green tone on painted woodwork or interior doors creates a tailored, intentional frame. Surrounding the design with soft sand and biscuit tones also highlights the warmer threads of the pattern while keeping the overall atmosphere calm and welcoming.
