Wallpaper - Bad Taste

Our Bad Taste wallpaper makes an immediate, expressive statement with its striking red-faced character biting down on a gold dollar coin. Large round eyes, prominent white teeth, and bold black outlines give the figure an energetic, playful presence, while visible brushstroke detailing creates an authentic, painted-looking character across the surface. The central figure is framed by rich emerald green base tones, deep yellow, vibrant blue accents, and a spotted purple garment that together build a high-contrast, thought-provoking composition. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical paper structure.

In the room

Because of its vivid graphic scale and bold postmodern attitude, we see this wall mural working especially well as a dedicated focal point where the full character has space to be seen. In a home art studio, creative study, or open living area, positioning the design across a prominent, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the artwork to set the artistic tone of the entire space. The rich emerald green backdrop anchors the composition, meaning it holds its own brilliantly behind lower seating or an open desk setup without losing the expressive impact of the upper motif.

Styling it

For an eclectic or maximalist interior, we would lean into the expressive nature of the design while keeping surrounding silhouettes relatively streamlined. Clean-lined contemporary furniture in darker wood tones or matte black metal prevents the space from feeling cluttered and gives the graphic line work room to breathe. When introducing surrounding textiles, simple solid textures let the wallpaper remain the undisputed hero of the room rather than competing with secondary decorative patterns.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres around a deep emerald green foundation, contrasted by warm yellow, primary blue, purple, and the striking red of the illustrated face. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or cabinetry, we recommend picking up on the rich emerald green to create a grounded, cohesive feel throughout the room. Alternatively, muted off-whites or soft greys offer a balanced, gallery-style backdrop that allows the vibrant primary accents to stand out clearly.
