Wallpaper - Le Citron I

Created by Leslie Trimbach, our Le Citron I wallpaper brings together classic French country charm and fresh botanical character. The design centres on a two-handled blue vase filled with lush green branches and sunny yellow lemons, grounded by extra citrus fruit resting along the base. Set against a backdrop of soft light blue and crisp white vertical stripes with a gentle watercolor-painted effect, the composition balances structured geometry with painterly warmth. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wallpaper with a subtle physical paper structure, it provides an uplifting focal point for dining spaces, kitchens, and summer living areas.

In the room

We love this design on a dining room or breakfast nook accent wall, where the central still life creates a warm, welcoming presence around the table. In a kitchen, pantry, or powder room, the combination of vertical stripes and citrus motifs lends an airy, Mediterranean-inspired feel without overwhelming the space. Because the vertical striping adds a natural sense of upward rhythm, the pattern works nicely on walls framed by cabinetry, open shelving, or wainscoting. For smaller rooms such as a guest bathroom or pantry, treating a single clear wall allows the detailed watercolor vase and leafy branches to stand out clearly.

Styling it

To complement the relaxed heritage feel of the motif, we suggest pairing this design with natural, tactile materials and understated finishes:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm timber or painted white furniture to let the vibrant lemon yellows and soft blues set the primary tone of the space.
• Introduce classic French country accents such as glazed white ceramic tableware, subtle woven linen napery, or terracotta planters to echo the still life aesthetic.
• Keep surrounding architectural trim in clean whites or soft chalky creams, which anchors the vertical backdrop stripes and preserves the bright, open feel of the artwork.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a palette of clear sky blue, fresh citrus yellow, leafy green, and clean white. To build a cohesive palette throughout the rest of the room, you can draw directly from the blue in the vase and background stripes for surrounding painted woodwork or accents. If you prefer a quieter backdrop, soft warm whites and gentle off-white shades on adjacent walls let the yellow lemons provide the main pop of colour. For a richer garden feel, deeper olive and foliage greens in cushions or nearby houseplants echo the leafy botanical branches.
