Wallpaper - Joy

Our Joy wallpaper by Jocelyn Elizabeth brings an energetic, painterly bouquet into the room through thick, expressive brushstrokes and a rich backdrop. Vibrant blooms in yellow, pink, purple, red, and white gather in a soft pink vase, standing out with clear painterly texture against a deep maroon and burgundy background. What we especially like about this mural wallpaper is the balance between the intense, dark ground and the luminous pops of floral colour, creating an expressive still-life artwork that gives a room immediate character. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure according to your wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Because of the rich contrast between the deep maroon ground and the lively blooms, we see this working particularly well in a living room or a bedroom where you want a dedicated focal point. In a living room, placing this wall mural on a main uninterrupted wall behind a sofa allows the full scale of the composition and the expressive brushwork to be appreciated from across the space. For a bedroom, installing it on the wall behind the headboard creates a warm, enveloping backdrop while framing the bed naturally. The deep burgundy tones provide depth in spaces with softer evening lighting, while daylight accentuates the bright impasto-style details in the flower petals.

Styling it

To let the expressive floral painting remain the central focus, we would pair this wallpaper with clean-lined furniture and thoughtful material contrasts.

• Ground the room with warm mid-tone or dark wood furniture, such as a low media console or bedside table, which echoes the depth of the dark maroon background.
• Select upholstery or larger textiles in neutral off-white, oatmeal, or muted taupe to balance the vibrant multi-coloured flowers without competing for attention.
• Introduce understated brass or matte black accents in lighting or hardware to reflect the contemporary, artistic character of the composition.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built around a deep maroon and burgundy base, illuminated by vivid petals in bright yellow, soft pink, deep purple, clean white, and rich red, grounded by the delicate pink vase. When decorating around this wallpaper, we recommend drawing from the lighter tones for adjacent painted walls, such as a creamy off-white or a gentle, muted blush. If you prefer a moodier, more cohesive look, a deep berry or warm burgundy on surrounding woodwork and skirting boards creates a sophisticated, continuous feel. For soft furnishings, quieter neutrals or a subtle mustard accent pulled directly from the yellow blooms work beautifully to tie the room together.
