Wallpaper - Kala Lines Red

Our Kala Lines Red wallpaper, designed by Sue Schlabach, brings a lively, mid-century-inspired rhythm to the wall through playful vertical painterly stripes. Broad ribbons of coral pink and sunny ochre yellow alternate with crisp bands of apple green, muted mint, and slender neutral grey and taupe pinstripes against a fresh white ground. The watercolor-like softness along the edges keeps the geometric pattern relaxed and inviting rather than rigid. Our made-to-measure wallpaper is PVC-free and features a subtle physical structure in the paper.

In the room

We see this design bringing cheerful energy to family spaces, whether used as a vibrant backdrop across all four walls in a nursery or children's bedroom, or as a focal point in a playroom. The vertical direction of the stripes naturally draws the eye upward, making it particularly effective in rooms with standard or lower ceiling heights. Because the white background keeps the repeat open and airy, the wallpaper works equally well across smaller, fragmented walls in a powder room or bathroom without feeling overwhelming.

Styling it

To balance the energetic palette and linear structure, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with simple, functional furnishings and rounded shapes. Painted white or light birch furniture keeps the atmosphere bright and modern, allowing the colors in the stripes to stand out. Curved elements, such as a round mirror, an organic pendant light, or soft cushions, provide a pleasant visual counterpoint to the straight vertical lines. Keeping large decorative textiles solid or softly textured ensures the room feels cohesive rather than cluttered.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built around vibrant coral pink and warm yellow, accented by fresh green, cool mint, soft beige, and warm grey stripes on a clean white base. When selecting surrounding paint colors for adjoining walls, doors, or trims, crisp off-white or warm chalky whites create a seamless, cohesive look. If you want to highlight specific tones from the pattern, picking up the gentle mint or soft taupe on woodwork or cabinetry creates a grounded, tailored interior.
