Wallpaper - Breakaway

Designed by Julia Dreams, our Breakaway wallpaper is a bold geometric pattern with a vibrant 1970s revival feel. The motif builds an intricate, rhythmic grid of contoured quatrefoil and star-like shapes, layered with concentric ripples in warm coral orange, olive green, cream, and deep charcoal outline accents. The screenprint-inspired look gives each repeating line a graphic clarity that instantly energizes a room. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface texture, it brings an expressive retro character to modern interiors.

In the room

We love this design in spaces where its lively optical rhythm can take center stage. In a hallway or entryway, the concentric linework creates an engaging sense of movement that greets you the moment you step through the door. It also works brilliantly in a living room, whether used across an accent wall behind a low sofa or wrapping a cozy sitting area. Because the repeat is structured yet full of dynamic energy, it holds visual interest across both compact walls and wider, open surfaces without feeling overwhelming.

Styling it

To let the graphic personality of the wallpaper stand out, we suggest keeping larger surrounding furniture relatively clean-lined and understated. Mid-century modern sideboards in warm wood tones like teak or walnut pair naturally with the 1970s aesthetic. Upholstered seating in neutral cream, taupe, or deep olive helps ground the space, while matte black accents or simple ceramic decor echo the crisp linework of the pattern without competing with it.

Colour combinations

The palette is anchored by warm coral orange tones layered alongside muted olive green, soft cream, and dark charcoal framing lines. For adjacent painted walls, a gentle warm white or pale linen shade keeps the atmosphere bright and balanced. If you prefer a moodier, more tailored scheme, pulling out the deep olive or dark charcoal for trim, baseboards, or interior doors creates a striking, cohesive frame around the wall murals.
