Wallpaper - Playfully I

Designed by Daphne Brissonnet, our Playfully I wallpaper brings together vertical striped bands filled with floral medallions, delicate botanical scrolls, and folk-inspired geometric motifs. The design features a warm, weathered textile character, layered across an earthy palette of mocha brown, sandy beige, muted teal, ochre, and soft terracotta rust. The vertical rhythm and painterly detail give the composition an artisanal, nostalgic quality that adds distinct character to a room. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our mural wallpapers are designed to be straightforward to hang while minimizing excess material.

In the room

The vertical stripe arrangement naturally creates height and rhythm, making this design well suited to rooms where you want visual movement across the walls. We see it working particularly well in a dedicated meditation room, a calm reading space, or a holiday home bedroom where the folk-textile appearance brings warmth and charm. In a meditation room, the balanced vertical bands create an orderly, grounding backdrop without feeling overly rigid. For a vacation home or country retreat, installing this wallpaper across an accent wall behind a low bed frame or along an entryway gives the space an immediate sense of collected heritage. Because the pattern carries intricate painted motifs within each band, giving it an uninterrupted wall allows the diverse decorative details to be appreciated from both near and far.

Styling it

When styling around this wallpaper, we suggest leaning into its warm, arts and crafts character with relaxed furniture shapes and tactile natural materials. The rich, painted textures pair naturally with light or warm-toned woods such as pine, oak, or whitewashed timber, which reflect the rustic warmth of the motif. To balance the detailed vertical bands, choose solid-toned upholstery and woven textiles like unbleached cotton, washed canvas, or boucle rather than competing prints. Ceramic table lamps with matte glazes, terracotta pots, and wrought iron or antique brass accents provide quiet anchors that complement the design's historical, handcrafted mood.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is anchored by an earthy base of mocha brown, soft cream, and taupe, complemented by accents of muted teal, burnt sienna, dusty rose, and muted gold. When selecting surrounding wall paint and furnishings, warm chalky whites and stone tones create a soft, seamless frame that lets the stripes stand out gently. If you prefer deeper contrast, painting adjoining walls or woodwork in a muted teal or soft terracotta draws out the accent details and creates a cozy, enveloping feel. Natural linen tones, biscuit beige, and warm clay on larger textiles will maintain an organic, grounded harmony throughout the space.
