Wallpaper - La Bastide

Our La Bastide wallpaper, created by Julia Dreams, brings a bold 1930s Art Deco rhythm to the wall through a structured geometric pattern of intersecting triangles, diamond facets, and stylised fan motifs. The composition balances rich ochre and warm mustard tones with soft lilac and muted plum shades, framed by clean graphic linework with a screenprint-inspired look. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your room dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the geometric repeat carries a strong upward and outward movement, we like using this design across a main living room wall where the symmetry has space to unfold. In an open-plan lounge or an art studio, it serves naturally as a visual anchor behind low-profile seating or a central workspace. The structured repeat also suits rooms with standard ceiling heights, where the vertical diamond formations give the eye a clear, balanced pathway. For smaller spaces, keeping the wallpaper to a single feature wall lets the expressive pattern stand out without dominating the entire room.

Styling it

When styling around this wallpaper, we recommend balancing its angular geometry with softer, understated furnishings. Clean-lined mid-century or retro furniture in warm walnut or dark-stained timber pairs naturally with the deep ochre and plum tones. To let the geometric structure lead the space, choose solid upholstery rather than patterned fabrics, perhaps in brushed velvet or smooth wool. Brass or aged bronze accents on lighting fixtures and cabinet hardware also echo the warm mustard elements in the design without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built around a palette of deep ochre, soft mustard yellow, pale lilac, and dusty purple. When decorating adjacent walls, a muted off-white or a delicate lilac paint tone keeps the surrounding space light while complementing the background of the print. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping atmosphere, a deep plum or warm aubergine on architectural woodwork, skirtings, or adjoining alcoves creates a seamless connection with the darker geometric facets.
