Wallpaper - Modern Petals III

Our Modern Petals III wallpaper, created by Cheryl Warrick, brings together an expressive collage of stylised florals against a deep blue and black backdrop. Bold blooms in soft rose, hot pink, ochre, apricot, and rich crimson overlap with green foliage, creating a dense, painterly composition filled with rhythmic charm and illustrative detail. Each flower has its own personality, from linework roses to graphic starburst petals. Produced as made-to-measure wallpaper, our PVC-free paper features a subtle surface texture that complements the artistic, painted character of the motif.

In the room

Because the motif is rich in colour and full of varied floral shapes, we see this working exceptionally well as a vibrant focal point in a living room, dining area, or creative home office. Across a wider feature wall, such as behind a sofa or along a dining table, the full diversity of the flower shapes has space to unfold naturally without feeling crowded. The deep blue ground helps anchor the brighter floral tones, allowing the pattern to add energetic character without overpowering the room. In a bedroom or guest room, placing this design behind the bedhead creates an inviting, decorative backdrop that frames the rest of the space beautifully.

Styling it

With such a lively and graphic botanical pattern, we prefer keeping surrounding furniture shapes relatively simple. Mid-century silhouettes or contemporary pieces with clean, unadorned profiles allow the mural wallpapers to remain the main visual focus.

When considering materials, warm timber such as teak, oak, or walnut harmonises naturally with the apricot and ochre elements in the flowers. For upholstery and larger soft furnishings, choosing solid, textured weaves rather than competing multi-coloured patterns helps maintain visual balance across the interior.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is anchored by a rich cobalt blue and charcoal background, layered with soft blush, bright magenta, terracotta, warm ochre, and leafy green.

To create a balanced palette around the room, we would look to pull out the deeper navy and charcoal tones for trim, window frames, or accent cabinetry. Alternatively, soft blush or muted warm whites on adjoining walls create a brighter, lighter contrast that lets the colourful blossoms take centre stage. For decorative accents or seating, warm ochre and terracotta draw direct connection to the heart of the floral motif.
