Wallpaper - Squares in Squares

Designed by Mary Urban, our Squares in Squares wallpaper brings a cheerful, textile-inspired geometric pattern to life with a soft watercolor-like appearance. The composition features stepped diamond motifs and nested square shapes arranged across an off-white, lightly textured-looking background. Rendered in a playful palette of baby pink, soft coral, mint, teal, and muted sage, the painted shapes carry subtle tonal variations that soften the graphic structure. Made-to-measure and PVC-free, this design adds a warm, youthful rhythm to bedrooms, playrooms, and living spaces.

In the room

We love how the stepped geometry and watercolor wash balance structure with a relaxed, approachable mood. In a toddler room, nursery, or playroom, the lively colors and repeating diamond shapes create an engaging backdrop without overwhelming the space. The rhythmic repeat also works wonderfully in a creative home office, a dressing room, or a contemporary bedroom where you want an accent wall full of character. Because the pattern has a clear repeating structure and medium scale, it holds its own on an open wall behind a bed or low shelving, but also transitions smoothly across multiple walls in smaller rooms.

Styling it

The playful yet grounded nature of this design makes it easy to style alongside contemporary and bohemian decor.

• Pair with light natural woods such as birch, ash, or light oak to keep the room feeling bright and open.
• Introduce soft, solid-colored textiles in blush, cream, or muted green to echo the watercolor tones without competing with the geometric motif.
• Choose furniture with clean, simple profiles so the stepped pattern remains the focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper combines delicate baby pink and warm coral with fresh mint, turquoise, and soft olive greens over an off-white ground. For surrounding walls and trim, warm whites, gentle creams, or pale blush create a seamless and airy atmosphere. If you prefer more color contrast, deep forest green or muted teal on cabinetry, painted woodwork, or statement furniture will draw out the richer tones within the motif while anchoring the room.
