Wallpaper - Forte Florals I

Created by artist Cheryl Warrick, our Forte Florals I wallpaper brings an expressive, painterly rhythm to the wall. The design weaves together abstract botanical shapes, leafy silhouettes, and gestural charcoal linework over a soft, off-white background. Warm ochre, lively coral, dusty pink, and touches of cerulean blue mingle with earthy green foliage and dotted textural patterns, creating the visual impression of a vibrant, large-scale watercolor painting. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper texture, this design offers an artistic, fluid presence that feels dynamic yet grounded.

In the room

Because of its expressive composition and dense, playful arrangement of forms, we particularly like this design on a main feature wall where the variety of shapes can be viewed comfortably from across the room. In a living room or dining room, placing the mural behind a low sofa or a dining table gives the floral elements room to breathe without competing with tall furniture.

For smaller spaces such as a home office, study, entry, or powder room, the artwork brings an engaging, gallery-like feel to compact walls. The mix of translucent washes and crisp outlines creates plenty of visual detail up close, making it equally rewarding in an intimate reading nook or library.

Styling it

When styling around this wallpaper, we recommend letting the expressive wall surface take the lead while grounding the room with calm, tactile materials:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm, natural wood finishes such as honey oak, walnut, or birch to complement the earthy ochre and green tones in the print.
• Choose upholstered furniture in neutral fabrics like cream linen or soft taupe wool, keeping solid tones on larger seating pieces to balance the lively artwork.
• Introduce decorative accents in matte black metal or stoneware ceramics, echoing the fine charcoal linework and organic dotted shapes found throughout the composition.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a light cream base layered with earthy ochre, warm terracotta, blush pink, soft sage, and accents of deep charcoal and cobalt blue.

To create a cohesive room scheme, consider painting adjacent walls in a warm off-white, pale linen, or a gentle buttermilk shade. If you want a moodier, more grounded contrast, deep charcoal or a rich olive green on woodwork, baseboards, or cabinetry pulls out the darker accents in the leaves and outlines. For smaller accents, soft peach or dusty rose textiles harmonize naturally with the lighter botanical blooms.
