Wallpaper - Horta

Designed by Julia Dreams, our Horta wallpaper brings a warm 1970s revival feel to the wall with an open scatter of stylized sunbursts. Set against a rich rust-orange backdrop, the repeating sun motifs vary between solid silhouette rays, wavy tendrils, and fine stippled starbursts in a soft golden-ochre tone. This rhythm between bold graphic shapes and lighter dotted details gives the pattern a playful, whimsical movement without overwhelming the room. Printed made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers a grounded, earthy atmosphere that works beautifully as an expressive accent wall or across an entire creative space.

In the room

Because the sunburst motifs are spaced out across a solid terracotta-rust field, this design maintains a calm visual pacing even across larger wall expanses. In a playroom or teenage bedroom, we like using it on the main wall behind a bed or low shelving, where the varied sun shapes create an inviting, dreamy focal point. For a home art studio or creative study, papering all four walls wraps the room in a rich, enveloping warmth that feels both nostalgic and modern. The balanced scale of the repeat means the pattern works just as well around door frames and window cutouts without losing the character of individual sun figures.

Styling it

We suggest leaning into the design's retro inspiration by pairing it with mid-century lines, simple curved furniture, and warm wood tones. Low-profile pieces in warm teak or stained birch complement the earthy base without competing with the graphic sunbursts.

To keep the focus on the pattern's vintage character, balance the warm background with tactile, unbleached textiles like natural canvas, woven wool, or oatmeal cotton. Matte black accents or brushed bronze lamps provide a clean visual anchor that sharpens the golden-orange palette.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a warm rust-orange background paired with soft golden-ochre and tan sun figures.

When choosing paint for adjoining walls or ceiling trims, consider creamy off-white or light biscuit tones to keep the room feeling bright and open. If you prefer a moodier, monochromatic scheme, a deep terracotta or clay paint on adjacent woodwork lets the golden details stand out with quiet confidence. Muted mustard, warm camel, or soft olive accents in surrounding decor also harmonize naturally with the earthy 70s palette.
