Wallpaper - Ypres

Our Ypres wallpaper brings a rhythmic, vintage-inspired vertical stripe into the home, layered with the delicate visual texture of woven fabric. Set against a soft cream base, the design alternates between varying widths of muted duck egg blue, taupe, warm terracotta, soft crimson, and fine charcoal pin lines. The subtle grid-like visual texture softens each band of colour, giving the pattern the relaxed, heritage feel of classic ticking or woven linen. Custom-made to your exact wall dimensions, our made-to-measure wallpapers are PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the vertical stripes vary in width, our Ypres design creates a gentle upward rhythm that works wonderfully in rooms where you want to emphasise height. In a hallway or staircase, the continuous vertical bands guide the eye naturally through transitional areas. In a dining room, kitchen, or living room, we love using this design across all four walls to establish a cohesive, tailored backdrop that feels both cheerful and grounded. The balance of warm and cool tones also makes it a charming option for a children's playroom or bedroom, where the pattern feels lively without overwhelming the space.

Styling it

The mid-century and heritage character of Ypres pairs naturally with warm wood furniture, such as vintage teak, ash, or painted shaker cabinetry. To balance the rhythmic pattern of the stripes, we recommend keeping surrounding upholstery and larger textiles relatively simple, drawing on solid woven fabrics rather than competing prints. In a dining room or kitchen setting, traditional ceramic tableware and simple brushed metal hardware echo the classic, time-tested character of the design.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built on a base of warm cream and taupe, punctuated by pastel teal-blue, coral-red, burnt orange, and slim accents of dark brown. When choosing paint for neighbouring walls, skirting, or woodwork, an off-white with warm undertones will keep the room light and cohesive. To lean into the wallpaper's warmer notes, consider pairing it with accents of rich terracotta or muted brick red. Alternatively, pulling out the soft duck egg blue through painted joinery creates a fresh, balanced contrast against the warm cream background.
