Wallpaper - Laundry Cats

Our Laundry Cats wallpaper brings a charming and whimsical illustration into the home, created by Yvette St. Amant. The scene features two orange tabby cats settled around a white washing machine; one sleeps peacefully on top with soft pink paws on show, while the second looks out curiously from inside the open drum. A patterned blanket in delicate pink, white, and green tones drapes over the appliance, complemented by potted green plants and decorative grey and white floor tiles. Grounded in warm caramel and earthy brown tones, this pictorial wall mural captures a gentle narrative that adds instant character to any room. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure and completely PVC-free, printed on paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a dedicated laundry room, utility space, or powder room, where its lighthearted subject matter turns an everyday functional area into a warm focal point. The illustrative composition benefits from being placed on an uninterrupted wall where the full scene can unfold without being heavily obscured by tall cabinets or stacked appliances.

Beyond utility spaces, our design makes a delightful addition to a children's playroom or bedroom. Because the motif is structured as a complete pictorial scene rather than a tight, repeating geometric print, giving it breathing room behind lower furniture pieces, such as a bench, low shelving unit, or child's bed, allows the storytelling details of the sleeping and curious cats to remain visible and engaging.

Styling it

To keep the focus on the illustrated scene, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with relatively clean-lined, unfussy furniture and simple fittings. The detailed composition already provides plenty of visual interest, so surrounding elements work best when they provide a calm foundation.

• Complement the warm caramel and orange tones of the cats with lighter natural wood surfaces, such as birch or pale ash cabinetry and shelving.
• Introduce actual potted houseplants nearby, like ferns or trailing ivy, to echo the illustrated greenery within the design and create a natural visual transition between the wall mural and the room.
• Stick to neutral, unadorned textiles in soft off-white or washed linen to balance the detailed pattern of the draped blanket in the artwork.

Colour combinations

The design itself is anchored by warm earthy browns and caramel shades, offset by crisp white, muted grey, soft pink, and foliage greens.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or cabinetry, we recommend pulling from these existing accents. A soft, warm off-white or gentle stone grey makes an ideal pairing for adjoining walls and painted skirting boards, keeping the overall interior feeling bright and airy. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, a muted terracotta, warm blush, or olive green on surrounding doors and cabinetry harmonises beautifully with the blanket and plant details in the artwork.
