Wallpaper - Rushes II

Our Rushes II wallpaper, created by Deborah Revell, captures the quiet grace of tall pampas grass bending gently against a soft, painterly sky. Delicate, feathery plumes rise gracefully from a dense cluster of slender blades at the base, creating an airy sense of vertical movement. Subtle washes of pale blue and soft pink drift across the neutral backdrop, giving the motif a light, atmospheric quality with a subtle watercolour-like character. Printed to order on PVC-free material, this mural wallpaper brings a serene botanical presence to the wall without overwhelming the space.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a bedroom or a dedicated meditation space where the open composition and gentle vertical lines can set a tranquil tone. Because the denser foliage is anchored at the bottom while the feathery plumes rise into generous open space above, the wallpaper naturally complements walls behind a low headboard or a low-profile bench. On a wide, uninterrupted accent wall, the soft horizon and swaying stems have room to breathe, helping the room feel visually open and uncluttered.

Styling it

To complement the organic lines and light palette of our wallpaper, we recommend pairing it with understated, natural furnishings. Low-slung furniture in pale, untreated timber such as ash or bleached oak harmonises with the botanical subject without competing for attention. Soft woven textiles in oatmeal, unbleached linen, or muted wool balance the delicate line work of the grass stems, keeping the overall interior grounded and cohesive.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a subtle palette of smoky grey and neutral beige grass tones set against a backdrop tinted with pale sky blue and faint hints of blush pink. To build a balanced scheme around it, we suggest taking cues from these background tones with chalky off-white or soft warm grey on adjoining walls and woodwork. If you want to introduce subtle contrast, muted earthy tones like sand or soft clay in larger textiles will highlight the natural warmth of the plumes.
