Wallpaper - Brushstroke Fan Scallop, French Blue

Our Brushstroke Fan Scallop wallpaper in French Blue, created by RNM Arts, pairs classic Art Deco arch motifs with an expressive, hand-painted visual texture. The composition features sweeping palm-like fan arches rendered in a muted slate French blue set against a deep navy background. Soft, painterly edges give the repeating fan shapes an organic rhythm while maintaining strong graphic symmetry. Made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our wallpaper creates a tailored focal point that balances architectural heritage with relaxed artistic flair.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working particularly well in spaces where its bold vertical movement and architectural symmetry can anchor the room. In a dining room or living room, hanging the design on an uninterrupted feature wall behind a sideboard or sofa lets the large-scale arch repeat display its full visual impact. The dark navy and French blue palette also lends itself beautifully to a bedroom feature wall behind a headboard or a dedicated home office, providing a rich, enveloping backdrop. Because the pattern has a strong upward rhythm, it naturally draws the eye upward, complementing rooms with standard or higher ceilings.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we suggest balancing its strong repeating arches with streamlined furniture and warm accents. Mid-century modern or contemporary furniture with clean silhouettes prevents the room from feeling visually crowded, allowing the graphic geometry of the pattern to take centre stage.

To soften the deep blue tones, bring in warm wood finishes such as walnut or natural oak alongside brass or warm bronze hardware and lighting. These metallic and timber notes provide a rich contrast to the cool slate and navy tones, enhancing the sophisticated character of the space without competing with the motif.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself combines a deep navy base with powdery, mid-toned French blue fan strokes. To build a cohesive palette around it, consider pairing the design with soft off-white or pale dove grey on adjacent walls and woodwork, keeping the overall atmosphere bright and balanced.

For a bolder, colour-drenched look, matching trim or surrounding walls in a complementary dark navy or charcoal creates an intimate, cocooning feel. If you want to introduce subtle contrast through textiles or decorative objects, muted terracotta, warm ochre, or dusty blush work exceptionally well against the blue foundation.
