Wallpaper - Wavy Stripes, Green & Rust

Our Wavy Stripes, Green & Rust wallpaper brings together flowing vertical bands in olive green, warm rust brown, muted light blue, and soft green set against an airy, off-white background. What we especially like about this design is the painterly, watercolor-like character of the stripes, which gives each line a subtle organic variation while keeping a clean and balanced vertical rhythm. The palette takes inspiration from warm 1970s tones without feeling heavy or dated. Produced custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, our wallpaper creates an inviting, design-led backdrop that adds gentle movement and warmth to your interior.

In the room

We see this design working naturally across a variety of spaces, from a relaxed living room or bedroom to a focused home office, hallway, or dining area. The vertical direction of the wavy lines draws the eye upward, which works particularly well on taller walls or in rooms where you want to introduce a sense of height. Because the repeat has an open structure and uses soft, earthy transitions rather than sharp contrast, it functions comfortably as an accent wall behind a sofa or bed, but also across multiple walls in a hallway or dining room without overwhelming the room. In spaces with good natural daylight, the delicate shifts in the olive and rust tones become especially clear.

Styling it

The warm retro mood of this pattern pairs effortlessly with both mid-century inspired pieces and modern, understated furniture. We suggest keeping surrounding shapes relatively clean to let the rhythmic wave of the stripes take center stage.

Warm wood furniture, such as teak, walnut, or honey-toned oak, naturally echoes the rust and olive palette. You might introduce brushed brass or matte black accents in lighting and hardware to give the room subtle definition. For textiles, simple unpatterned weaves in linen or wool in warm oat, ecru, or soft clay complement the organic feel of the wall without competing with the vertical pattern.

Colour combinations

Inside the wallpaper, you will find a considered mix of olive green, warm rust brown, soft green, and dusty light blue balanced by a pale, neutral ground.

When choosing colors for adjacent walls, trim, or cabinetry, we recommend pulling directly from these earthy undertones. Warm off-white or light sand on surrounding surfaces keeps the atmosphere bright and cohesive. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, a muted olive paint or a deep terracotta rust on adjoining woodwork or low shelving creates a grounded, tonal harmony with the mural wallpapers.
