Wallpaper - Alfresco Dining I, Olive

Our Alfresco Dining I, Olive wallpaper by RNM Arts captures the lively, shared spirit of an open-air meal across a rich olive green backdrop. Hand-painted in feel, the illustrated repeat arranges bowls of bright lemons, pasta plates topped with tomatoes, teapots with pink infusions, wine glasses, boiled eggs, and vases of white wildflowers among scattered sprigs and berries. It is a playful yet grounded pattern that brings character, warmth, and visual storytelling to dining rooms and social spaces. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our wallpaper is designed to be straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a dining room, breakfast nook, or kitchen dining area where its celebratory food motifs feel right at home. The deep olive background gives the design visual grounding, allowing it to work across all four walls in a cosy eating space or as an engaging feature wall behind a dining table or sideboard. In open-plan living and kitchen areas, it clearly defines the dining zone while adding colour and personality to the wall.

Because the motif contains detailed, varied elements, it works well at eye level where the illustrated plates, ceramic bowls, and floral bouquets can be appreciated up close. In rooms with steady natural daylight, the warm yellows, soft pinks, and fresh whites stand out crisply against the olive canvas.

Styling it

To let the lively character of the wallpaper take center stage, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined furniture in warm natural wood such as oak, ash, or pine. Simple timber dining tables and classic wooden spindle chairs complement the rustic, welcoming theme without competing for attention.

For tableware and nearby decorative touches, simple white or cream ceramics echo the illustrated plates and bring visual balance to the room. Linen napkins or tablecloths in natural oatmeal or soft terracotta pick up the warmer accent tones within the pattern.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a deep, earthy olive green, brought to life with sunny lemon yellow, soft rose pink, terracotta red, and crisp white, alongside patterned ceramic blues and dark charcoal vases.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or kitchen cabinets, we recommend warm off-whites, creamy stone, or a soft muted sage to keep the surrounding space feeling bright and harmonious. For a richer, more enveloping feel, pulling the deep olive tone through onto architraves or lower wall panelling creates a seamless, cohesive backdrop.
