Wallpaper - Batik Medan

Created by Julia Dreams, our Batik Medan wallpaper brings together a distinct 1970s revival aesthetic with the rhythm of geometric pattern. Rich emerald green circles interlock across a warm peachy-cream ground, accented by geometric diamond forms and fine hand-drawn linear hatching that gives the motif a marker-drawn visual character. Tiny mustard yellow diamonds punctuate the centre of each circular shape, introducing a sharp pop of contrast that enlivens the entire repeat. Printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our made-to-measure mural wallpapers offer an artistic, retro-inspired statement for your interior.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a living room or a creative home studio where its rhythmic geometry can take centre stage. The balanced scale of the repeat makes it versatile across different wall dimensions: it has enough presence to anchor a main accent wall behind a sofa, yet the structured repetition also works comfortably across multiple walls in a compact study. In spaces with generous natural light, the deep emerald green establishes a grounding, graphic backdrop, while softer evening lamplight highlights the warm peach and mustard undertones.

Styling it

To complement the strong retro character of this wallpaper, we would pair it with warm mid-toned or dark timber furniture, such as teak or walnut, which naturally echoes its 1970s influence. Keep larger upholstered seating relatively simple and solid in tone so the pattern remains the focal point, perhaps introducing cushions or throws in ochre, mustard, or deep forest green to draw out the colours of the motif. Matte black or muted brass accents on lighting fixtures provide a clean, modern edge that balances the playful, hand-rendered feel of the linework.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by its deep emerald and teal-green base, a soft peach-cream background, and small accent diamonds in mustard yellow. For surrounding painted walls or woodwork, a soft warm off-white or light muted beige keeps the overall space feeling open while harmonising with the background tones. If you prefer a bolder, colour-drenched look, pairing the design with a rich olive or deep forest green on adjacent trim or cabinetry creates an enveloping, cohesive atmosphere.
