Wallpaper - Cabin Life I

Our Cabin Life I wallpaper by Sue Schlabach presents a bold Southwestern-inspired geometric emblem set against a whitewashed timber plank backdrop. The design builds outward from a central diamond shape using stepping triangles, chevrons and parallelograms in weathered terracotta red, soft turquoise, olive green and muted slate grey. Fine horizontal woodgrain textures and subtle distressed detailing across the shapes give the composition a handcrafted, rustic character while maintaining clean geometric symmetry. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings an authentic lodge feel to any feature wall.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well as a focal point in a living room or entryway where the full central emblem has space to breathe. Because the artwork is built around a single expansive diamond composition, it thrives on an open, relatively uninterrupted wall area, such as behind a low-backed sofa or along a main hallway wall. In a lodge, country retreat or rustic-inspired home, the bright white wood-plank background keeps the room feeling light and spacious, while the earthy geometric motifs introduce warmth and structure.

Styling it

To complement the artisanal character of the design, we suggest pairing it with warm natural materials and clean, grounded silhouettes.

• Choose furniture in warm, mid-toned woods like reclaimed pine, rustic oak, or leather upholstery with a worn patina to echo the lodge aesthetic.
• Balance the geometric precision of the wallpaper with soft woven textiles, such as a chunky neutral wool rug or unbleached canvas accents.
• Incorporate matte black metal or aged bronze lighting fixtures to pick up on the crisp outlines within the motif without overwhelming the artwork.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features an off-white plank base layered with terracotta red, dusty turquoise, olive green and muted charcoal grey. For the surrounding walls and woodwork, we recommend staying close to warm off-whites, creamy linen tones or soft chalky greiges to keep the space bright. If you prefer to draw out the deeper tones of the pattern, rich terracotta, muted forest green or warm charcoal accents on adjacent doors, cabinetry or soft furnishings create a grounded, cohesive palette.
