Wallpaper - Sino Lines

Designed by Mary Urban, our Sino Lines wallpaper presents wide horizontal bands in deep navy blue set against a clean, neutral white ground. What we particularly like about this design is the expressive, watercolour-like visual texture within each stripe, where tonal variations and hand-painted edges soften the bold geometric layout. This balance between structured stripes and artistic wash brings a timeless, relaxed rhythm to interior spaces. Made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions, our wallpaper is PVC-free and printed on paper featuring a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Horizontal stripes naturally guide the eye across a room, making this design well suited to areas where you want to emphasize wall width and create an open, grounded feel. In a living room or bedroom, we would place it on a main feature wall behind a sofa or headboard, where the broad blue bands establish a serene backdrop without overwhelming everyday furniture.

The clean contrast and fluid brushstroke effect also work beautifully in a hallway, staircase, or home office, bringing tailored rhythm to transitional spaces. In a teenage room or bathroom, the classic maritime-leaning palette introduces a crisp, tranquil note that feels both structured and easygoing.

Styling it

The distinct graphic structure of Sino Lines pairs naturally with classic heritage, coastal, or relaxed contemporary decor. To complement the painterly navy bands, we suggest introducing warm natural timber, such as mid-tone oak or teak, which softens the cool contrast between the blue and white.

When choosing textiles and upholstery, keep surrounding patterns minimal. Solid woven linens, textured wools, or subtle canvas fabrics in off-white, oatmeal, or navy help echo the wallpaper's relaxed character while letting the horizontal stripes remain the primary graphic element in the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built around a classic pairing of deep navy blue with soft, watercolour tonal shifts and a bright neutral white background.

Around this palette, we recommend working with crisp white or soft off-white paint on adjoining walls, skirting, and ceilings to keep the overall atmosphere airy and cohesive. For accents and complementary decor, warm neutral tones like sandy beige and stone balance the deep blue, while muted slate grey or touches of brass hardware add subtle warmth without competing with the bold navy stripes.
