Wallpaper - Stella's Braid

Our Stella's Braid wallpaper, designed by Julia Dreams, presents an intricate geometric line pattern inspired by traditional wickerwork and interlocking woven ribbons. Curving bands of soft blue, dusty lavender, sage green, and warm peach twist and loop across the surface, creating rhythmic oval and spiral shapes anchored by subtle squared centres. The painted lines carry a gentle, hand-drawn look that softens the structured repeat, giving the entire composition an organic, continuous flow. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall covering with a subtle structure in the paper, this design brings balanced movement and visual interest to modern or heritage-inspired interiors.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in spaces where you want continuous visual rhythm without overwhelming the interior. In a bedroom, placing it on the wall behind the headboard creates an engaging focal point while maintaining a restful, tranquil atmosphere. The repeating curves and balanced geometric structure also make it a wonderful choice for a nursery, child's bedroom, or dedicated playroom, adding playful colour and pattern that can effortlessly grow with the space.

In an entrance hallway or along a staircase wall, the intertwining braided paths naturally guide the eye upward and through the area, adding decorative depth to narrower architectural transitions. If you have a living room with generous natural light, the subtle shifts between the soft blue, green, and peach bands become particularly lovely to observe throughout the day. Because the repeat is balanced and medium in scale, it functions just as effectively across all four walls of a smaller room as it does on a single accent wall in a larger, open space.

Styling it

To complement the fluid geometry of Stella's Braid, we suggest pairing it with furniture that shares its soft lines or provides a clean, grounded counterpoint. Mid-century modern shapes, curved upholstered seating, or classic painted wooden pieces in off-white, soft sage, or muted blue sit comfortably against the pattern.

Natural materials like rattan, light ash, or woven cane echo the wicker-inspired structure of the motif without competing with its colours. When selecting textiles such as bedding, rugs, or window dressings, opting for solid pastel tones, heathered wools, or simple woven textures allows the intricate line work of the mural wallpapers to remain the main visual feature of the room.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design balances cool and warm tones, blending dusty blue and lavender with soft sage green, pale peach, and creamy off-white outlines.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or ceiling trims, consider drawing out one of the quieter shades from the motif. A soft, warm off-white keeps the overall room light and airy, while a muted sage green or dusty cornflower blue brings out the cooler bands of the weave. For accessories or smaller painted accent pieces, soft peach or warm terracotta tones pick up on the inner loops, adding gentle warmth and cohesion to the wider decorating scheme.
