Wallpaper - Sunny Side Blocks

Our Sunny Side Blocks wallpaper, designed by Haley Knighten, brings a playful, graphic energy to the wall through an orderly checkerboard grid. Symmetrical squares of red, pink, orange, yellow, light green, light blue, and dark blue alternate with soft cream blocks, creating a balanced rhythm that feels lively without becoming chaotic. The mix of bold and pastel tones nods gently to retro and Memphis-inspired geometry, making this mural wallpaper an expressive backdrop for creative living spaces. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In residential interiors, we especially like this geometric design in lively, creative areas of the home. It makes an uplifting statement in a dedicated playroom, children's bedroom, toddler room, or teenage bedroom, where the clean grid and multi-coloured palette introduce structure and cheerful character. We also see this working exceptionally well in a home art studio or creative workspace, where the graphic layout adds visual interest behind a work table without cluttering the room. Because the checkerboard layout relies on clear symmetry, giving the design a wide, relatively uninterrupted feature wall allows the full spectrum of alternating tones to unfold naturally across the space.

Styling it

When styling around such a colourful geometric pattern, we recommend keeping larger surrounding elements grounded and simple so the wall murals remain the primary focal point.

• Choose furniture with clean, straightforward lines, such as simple painted white pieces or warm natural timber, to balance the bold grid structure.
• Echo one or two specific tones from the pattern in smaller accents, such as a sunny yellow desk lamp, a cobalt blue pencil holder, or a soft pink cushion.
• Keep surrounding flooring and rugs visually quiet, using neutral flatweave textures or light floorboards that ground the vibrant colour scheme without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

Our design features a rich palette of red, pink, orange, yellow, light green, light blue, and dark blue interspersed with soft cream blocks. When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, and skirting, pairing the wallpaper with off-white, warm ivory, or a soft cream matching the alternating squares creates a seamless and harmonious transition. If you want to introduce a touch more depth into the room, consider pulling out the darker blue or earthy terracotta red for door frames, shelving, or a statement piece of furniture.
