Wallpaper - Summer Cottage III

In our Summer Cottage III wallpaper, artist Katrina Pete pairs delicate watercolour wildflowers and a charming little birdhouse with a cheerful yellow gingham backdrop. What we particularly like about this design is how the structured geometric checks provide a crisp, classic framework for the softer floral forms and pastel petals. The balance of warm yellow, gentle greens, and subtle botanical accents gives the pattern an open, nostalgic feel that brings the spirit of an English country garden onto your walls. Produced made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, our wallpapers are designed to be straightforward to hang.

In the room

The combination of delicate floral details and an orderly gingham check makes this wallpaper wonderfully adaptable across residential settings. We especially like it in a nursery, toddler room, or children's bedroom, where the friendly motifs create a bright and gentle environment. The repeat has enough visual lightness to work beautifully across all four walls without overwhelming the room, though it is equally effective on a feature wall behind a cot or child's bed. In a family playroom, the design brings a playful yet classic character that feels timeless rather than transient.

Styling it

The heritage cottage feel of the motif pairs naturally with traditional and country-inspired furnishings. We would combine this design with warm white or soft painted timber furniture to maintain the bright, airy feel of the yellow base.

To complement the delicate garden theme, look to simple woven textures and lightweight plain cottons rather than competing patterned fabrics. Simple ceramic table lamps and painted wooden panelling also help ground the playful gingham, allowing the hand-painted wildflowers to carry the room's decorative focus.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a sunny yellow and white gingham grid, accented by soft watercolour greens, gentle pastel purples, and peach tones in the petals.

When choosing paint colours for surrounding walls, skirting, or fitted joinery, we suggest soft off-whites, creamy ivories, or very pale sage tones pulled directly from the painted leaves. For a slightly warmer look, a muted peach or gentle buttercup yellow works harmoniously alongside the wallpaper without overpowering the delicate artwork.
