Wallpaper - Sepia Tulip I

In our Sepia Tulip I wallpaper, created by Deborah Revell, a single flower takes centre stage with dramatic charcoal grey tones and ruffled, fringed petals. What we particularly like about this design is the balance between the deep, dark petals and the slender, pale stem rising against a textured light grey backdrop. The monochrome palette gives the botanical motif a clean, graphic presence without losing the delicate feel of the natural form. Printed to your specific dimensions on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers a calm and considered look for contemporary interiors.

In the room

Because of its strong singular composition, we find this design works exceptionally well on an accent wall where the tulip has space to be appreciated as a piece of art. In a living room, it makes a striking backdrop behind a low sofa, where the vertical stem naturally draws the eye upward without competing with the surrounding furniture. In a bedroom or quiet home library, the neutral charcoal and grey palette introduces a serene, grounded atmosphere that never overwhelms the room. The graphic nature of the print also allows it to hold its own in spaces with plenty of natural daylight, where the subtle tonal gradations in the background become more apparent.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this wallpaper with interiors that lean into understated, modern simplicity or contemporary Asian zen aesthetics:

• Keep furniture profiles low and streamlined, opting for clean architectural lines that let the bold silhouette of the floral study remain the focal point.
• Balance the cool charcoal and soft grey tones with warm, natural wood finishes such as smoked oak or muted walnut to bring warmth into the room.
• Introduce tactile contrast through unbleached, textured fabrics or soft matte ceramics rather than high-gloss decorative pieces.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design relies on deep charcoal grey, neutral slate tones, and a soft, textured light grey background. When choosing paint for adjacent walls or woodwork, we suggest picking up the gentle grey undertones with warm chalky whites, stone, or muted greige to keep the transitions soft. If you prefer a more dramatic, intimate setting, a deep charcoal paint on surrounding trims or neighbouring walls can frame the wallpaper beautifully and emphasise its graphic depth.
