Wallpaper - Hanging Gardens Blue

Our Hanging Gardens Blue wallpaper, created in collaboration with artist Danhui Nai, brings an elegant, heritage-inspired botanical motif to life against a deep navy ground. Painted-looking floral blooms, scrolling vines, and delicate dotted tendrils are rendered in soft chalky white and pale slate blue, creating a quiet visual rhythm across the wall. The distressed, subtly textured background appearance gives the motif an aged, textile-like depth reminiscent of classic block prints and historic damasks. Made-to-measure and completely PVC-free, our wallpaper paper also features a subtle physical structure that adds to its refined character.

In the room

Because of its rich dark backdrop and flowing botanical structure, we particularly like this design in rooms where you want an intimate, enveloped atmosphere. In a bedroom, it works wonderfully across the main wall behind the headboard, anchoring the space while keeping the visual mood calm and grounded. It is equally compelling in a formal dining room, living room, or a quiet home library, where the repeat has space to breathe across larger continuous wall areas. In spaces with softer, directional lighting, the contrasting brushwork-inspired details catch the eye without overwhelming the room.

Styling it

To complement the historic, painterly character of the design, we would pair this wallpaper with furnishings that have classic silhouettes and rich, warm materials. Darker wood tones such as walnut or antique mahogany balance the depth of the navy base, while warm metallic accents like aged brass or muted bronze bring out the subtle highlights within the white and pale blue linework. Upholstery in textured woven fabrics or muted neutral tones keeps the overall scheme balanced, letting the wallpaper stand as the main decorative element.

Colour combinations

The design is defined by its deep navy blue background and the soft white, chalky cream, and cool slate tones used throughout the floral linework. When selecting surrounding colours for adjacent walls, woodwork, or trim, we recommend carrying through a soft antique white or muted parchment to echo the painted stems and petals. For a bolder, monochromatic approach, pairing the wallpaper with woodwork painted in a matching deep navy creates a striking, cohesive look.
