Wallpaper - Batik Barus

Created by Julia Dreams, our Batik Barus wallpaper brings a playful 1970s revival energy to walls with its rhythmic geometric composition. The design features bold diamond forms rendered in a warm coral hue, framed by hand-painted-looking diagonal bands in soft off-white. At the centre of each diamond sits a distinctive turquoise cutout motif, introducing a fresh, contrasting accent that enlivens the entire repeat. Printed as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an expressive geometric pattern with plenty of retro charm.

In the room

We love how the geometric rhythm and cheerful palette of Batik Barus energise dynamic spaces in the home. In a playroom or a teenage room, the warm coral base creates an inviting, upbeat atmosphere, while the turquoise accents add a lively splash of contrast. The clear diamond repeat works beautifully across a dedicated feature wall behind a desk, bed, or seating area, giving the space an immediate focal point without overwhelming it. Because the pattern has a steady vertical and diagonal cadence, it also holds up remarkably well across wider walls where the complete repeat has space to unfold.

Styling it

When styling around this wallpaper, we recommend leaning into relaxed, mid-century or retro-inspired furnishings that echo its 1970s aesthetic. Clean-lined furniture in warm wood tones, such as teak or warm birch, complements the coral tones naturally and keeps the room grounded. To balance the geometric energy of the wall murals, opt for furniture with soft, rounded contours or simple silhouettes. Surrounding textiles in neutral creams or unbleached woven fabrics let the wallpaper carry the pattern, while small decorative accessories or cushions in turquoise can subtly tie the room together.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on rich coral orange and cream diagonal linework, punctuated by vibrant turquoise details. When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls or woodwork, a soft warm white or muted cream provides a gentle backdrop that lets the coral diamond pattern take centre stage. If you want to lean into a warmer, tonal environment, a muted terracotta or dusty peach on adjacent surfaces enhances the cosy feel. For a bolder, design-led interior, pulling the turquoise from the central motif into painted shelving, lamp bases, or window trim creates a sharp, cohesive contrast.
