Wallpaper - Focus on the Dahlia

Our Focus on the Dahlia wallpaper, created by Imary, brings grand botanical forms into the home with a gentle, painterly touch. Large, overlapping dahlia heads fill the foreground in soft shades of pearl white, dusty rose, and muted sage green, set against a hazy, watercolour-wash backdrop. The delicate brushstrokes and low-contrast transitions give the large-scale floral composition an artistic, dreamy atmosphere. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical texture, this design offers an expressive yet calming presence across an accent wall or full room.

In the room

Because the botanical motifs are rendered at a generous scale, we find this design works best where it has sufficient wall area to unfurl. In a spacious bedroom, placing it behind the headboard creates an enveloping focal point that anchors the room without feeling heavy or visually busy. In a living room, it works beautifully across a primary uninterrupted wall, where the sweeping petals and painterly textures can be viewed from across the space. The soft pastel palette and fluid edges allow the pattern to sit comfortably alongside larger furnishings, preventing the room from feeling crowded.

Styling it

To balance the expansive floral forms, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with furniture that features clean, understated silhouettes and tactile finishes. Light, neutral upholstery in warm ecru, pale grey, or unbleached linen creates a grounded backdrop that allows the soft pink and pearl tones of the dahlias to take centre stage. When introducing timber, pale woods like ash or bleached oak echo the lightness of the backdrop, while subtle touches of antiqued brass or soft pewter can mirror the classic heritage undertones of the painted floral motif without adding harsh contrast.

Colour combinations

The core palette within the wallpaper centres on pearl white, dusty blush pink, muted olive, and soft taupe, underpinned by an atmospheric grey-blue wash. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or surrounding trim, warm off-whites and pale stone shades maintain the open, airy feel. For a slightly moodier or more defined interior, you can pull out the deeper muted tones from the petals, choosing dusty rose, soft sage, or an earthy clay colour for painted woodwork, skirting boards, or primary accent textiles.
