Wallpaper - Do Your Thing

Our Do Your Thing wallpaper, designed by Julia Dreams, brings a warm 1970s aesthetic into the home through organic, vertically flowing lines. Fine, dark, hand-drawn wavy stripes run down a rich coral orange background, creating an undulating visual rhythm reminiscent of vintage printed textiles. What we particularly like about this geometric pattern is how the fluid line weight softens the structure, giving the wall surface artistic movement and subtle retro personality. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a slight physical structure, our wallpaper is straightforward to hang and provides an expressive focal point in contemporary interiors.

In the room

Because of the strong vertical orientation and continuous flowing lines, this design works especially well on wider, uninterrupted surfaces where the rhythm has space to unfold. In a living room, we love seeing this mural wallpaper set across the main feature wall behind a low sofa, where the height of the room helps elongate the vertical lines without competing with tall storage units. In a dining room, wrapping the pattern around the dining area creates an inviting, enveloping atmosphere for gatherings, especially when paired with warm evening pendant lighting that highlights the depth of the coral backdrop.

Styling it

The retro character of the design pairs naturally with mid-century modern silhouettes and warm, organic shapes. We recommend choosing low-profile furniture with soft curves or rounded edges to echo the fluid movement in the artwork. Darker woods such as teak, walnut, or stained ash complement the earthy depth of the orange backdrop, while matte black metal lighting or hardware can pick out the fine dark line work within the pattern. To keep the focus on the graphic rhythm of the wall, we suggest keeping surrounding upholstery and larger area rugs relatively plain and neutral.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built on a vibrant base of warm coral orange, grounded by deep charcoal and dark green in the linear detail. When selecting paint shades for adjacent walls, skirting, or doors, softer off-whites, warm biscuit tones, or gentle linen greys allow the bold background to take centre stage without creating harsh visual contrast. For a more adventurous, cohesive palette, pulling out the deep forest green or charcoal from the line work for nearby trim, cabinetry, or window frames creates an intentional and tailored interior.
