Wallpaper - Ruffles Hills, Midnight Blue

Designed by Irina Chikati, our Ruffles Hills, Midnight Blue wallpaper layers dense, stylized foliage forms across the wall in deep midnight blue, navy, and dark ink tones. The pointed, elongated shapes resemble sweeping feathers or layered blades of grass, outlined with fine graphic lines that give the organic composition a distinct Art Deco feel. With its rich tonal depth and rhythmic movement, the pattern brings visual character to a space without relying on high-contrast colouring. Made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface texture, it provides an expressive backdrop that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We especially like this design where you want an immersive, moody atmosphere. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard creates an enveloping feature wall, where the dark palette frames low lighting and bedding naturally. It works just as effectively across a dedicated study, home office, or library, giving the walls depth and character during focused working hours.

Because the repeating wave-like rhythm has strong organic movement, we also see this wallpaper working well in longer entryways, dressing rooms, or dining areas. In smaller rooms or powder rooms, wrapping all four walls creates a cohesive jewel-box effect, while in a larger living room, giving the design an uninterrupted focal wall lets the undulating shapes establish the mood of the entire space.

Styling it

The stylized 1930s aesthetic pairs naturally with both vintage-inspired and modern interiors:

• Contrast the deep navy and dark tones with warm metallic accents such as aged brass lighting, bronze hardware, or gilded mirror frames that catch the light against the dark backdrop.
• Balance the dense, graphic foliage with clean-lined furniture in rich woods like walnut or blackened oak, keeping large upholstery in tailored, solid textures such as velvet, wool, or boucle.
• Incorporate sculptural ceramics, marble side tables, or smoky glass accents to echo the refined, decorative lines of the motif without competing with its rhythmic pattern.

Colour combinations

Our design is rooted in deep midnight blue, dark navy, and dense black ink tones. When planning your surrounding room palette, we suggest pairing it with warm neutrals such as soft stone, taupe, or warm parchment on adjacent walls and woodwork, which softens the dark base without creating harsh contrast.

For a dramatic, monochrome scheme, matching nearby trims, doors, or built-in cabinetry in a complementary dark navy creates a sophisticated, continuous look. If you prefer a richer accent palette, deep ochre, rust, forest green, or muted terracotta in cushions, drapery, and artwork provide a warm, considered counterbalance to the cool blue depths.
