Wallpaper - Intriguing

Created by Jeanette Vertentes, our Intriguing wallpaper brings an expressive floral still life to life with bold, painterly brushstrokes. Large peony blooms and fresh green foliage emerge from an open composition filled with soft pastel pinks, powder blues, sunny yellows, and gentle sage tones. The artwork carries the visual character of thick, textured oil paint layered across a canvas, giving your wall the presence of an original gallery piece. Made to measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this design brings an artful, heritage-inspired mood to contemporary and classic interiors alike.

In the room

Because of the generous scale and expressive movement in this design, we particularly like using it on a main feature wall where the full floral composition can unfold without too much visual interruption. In a living room, placing it behind a sofa creates an engaging focal point that anchors the entire seating area.

Our floral wall murals also work wonderfully in a bedroom behind a headboard, where the pastel palette introduces soft colour without overwhelming the space. In a dining room, home office, or guest room, the painterly composition adds instant character, while in a hallway or entry, it offers a welcoming, gallery-like first impression as you step through the door.

Styling it

To let the dynamic brushwork take centre stage, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture relatively calm and clean-lined. Mid-tone or light painted furniture pairs naturally with the artistic character of the motif, while warm natural wood finishes like ash or pale oak ground the lighter pastel elements.

For upholstery and curtains, smooth woven fabrics in quiet neutral tones let the wall carry the primary pattern. You can introduce small accents that pick up the blue or mustard yellow notes from the painting through decorative ceramics or table lamps, giving the room a curated, bohemian yet sophisticated feel.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on fresh botanical greens, soft blush pinks, and sky blue accents against a neutral, airy backdrop.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, and major furnishings, soft sage greens and warm off-whites create a harmonious backdrop that allows the floral artwork to shine. For a touch more contrast and depth, muted cornflower blue, slate, or a dusty peach tone drawn directly from the petals will tie the entire room together effortlessly.
