Wallpaper - Batik Borobudor

Created by Julia Dreams, our Batik Borobudor wallpaper brings together an expressive geometric diamond motif with a vibrant 1970s revival energy. The composition builds rhythmic vertical movement through interlocking chevrons and diamonds, layered with fine decorative linework, dots, and marker-drawn visual textures. Aquamarine blue forms an open, refreshing base, contrasted against sharp bands of coral red, deep navy, and subtle mint accents. Printed as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this design provides a graphic focal point that balances playful retro character with structured repetition.

In the room

The bold vertical rhythm and high-contrast geometric repeat make this wallpaper particularly effective on a feature wall where the pattern has space to unfold. In a teenage room, creative art studio, or lively home study, we see this working well behind a desk, workstation, or bed frame where the decorative symmetry naturally anchors the surrounding area. Because the vertical chevrons draw the eye upwards, the design can also give walls in rooms with standard ceiling heights an added sense of structure and height. Across a complete room, the pattern creates an immersive, energetic atmosphere that feels confident and distinctly retro.

Styling it

Because our design carries considerable visual energy and strong geometric lines, we recommend keeping large furniture pieces simple and grounded. Mid-century silhouettes and low-profile furniture work especially well alongside the 1970s-inspired repeat.

To keep the room balanced, consider pairing the wallpaper with warm timber surfaces like teak or warm oak, which soften the contrast between the bold coral and aquamarine tones. For upholstered items and bedding, choosing solid, unpatterned fabrics in muted navy or soft off-white allows the mural wallpapers to remain the main visual focus without competing elements.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on a crisp aquamarine blue, framed by punchy coral red, ink navy, and soft mint green details.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls, trim, or larger decor, consider these directions:

• Pick up the soft cream or light mint tones from the inner linework for adjacent painted walls to keep the space open and bright.
• Introduce deep navy or petrol blue on skirting boards, shelving, or accent chairs to anchor the bolder coral lines.
• Work with warm neutrals and terracotta accessories to echo the warmer red tones in the diamond repeat.
