Wallpaper - Bohemian Waves

Our Bohemian Waves wallpaper, created by Dina June, brings together bold chevron stripes with a relaxed watercolour appearance. Broad bands of muted pink, berry magenta, sage green, and teal-blue are outlined with ink-like indigo brushstrokes against an off-white ground. The rhythmic zig-zag geometry feels fluid and artistic rather than rigid, with visible paint pooling and soft edge transitions that soften the graphic repeat. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this design brings lively energy and warmth to an accent wall or creative interior.

In the room

The strong diagonal movement in this pattern gives it plenty of upward energy, making it particularly effective on an accent wall where the full height of the chevron repeat can be appreciated. In a teenage room or playroom, we would place this design along a main feature wall behind a desk, bed, or seating nook to ground the space with personality without overpowering every surface.

Because the bands of colour are broad and the contrast is lively, the wallpaper naturally draws focus. In smaller or narrower rooms, using it on a single uninterrupted wall prevents the energetic geometry from feeling too busy, while allowing the room to retain an open, airy balance.

Styling it

To let the dynamic chevron repeat take centre stage, we would pair this design with clean-lined furniture in simple shapes. Light painted finishes or warm natural timbers work well alongside the softer watercolour tones, grounding the colour scheme without competing with the pattern.

When introducing textiles and accessories, pick out one or two key shades from the motif, such as the muted pink or deep teal, to create a cohesive link across cushions, throws, or curtains. Eclectic and modern bohemian spaces can embrace the 1970s-inspired rhythm by combining simple ceramic pieces and soft woven fabrics that echo the casual, hand-painted mood.

Colour combinations

The pattern features a rich, playful palette of berry magenta, blush pink, soft sage, deep teal, and inky blue lines against an off-white base.

For surrounding walls and woodwork, we recommend pairing this design with gentle off-white or creamy neutral paint shades to keep the overall atmosphere light and balanced. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, drawing out the deeper teal-blue or a muted sage green for adjacent walls, trim, or larger painted cabinetry provides a striking and sophisticated frame for the wallpaper.
