Wallpaper - Tribal Tones

Created by Veronique Charron, our Tribal Tones wallpaper brings together graphic symbols, geometric line work, and stylised botanical motifs across a soft, woven-looking background. Bold black outlines balance painted blocks of coral, ochre, muted turquoise, and warm neutrals, creating an artistic rhythm with plenty of character. The mix of concentric shapes, hand-drawn marks, and earthy tones gives the composition a playful, mid-century modern aesthetic that feels expressive yet grounded. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because of its expressive grid of abstract symbols and varied shapes, we think this design works particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the full breadth of the composition can unfold. In a living room or a dining space, placing it behind a low sideboard or dining table keeps the upper artwork visible and gives the room an immediate focal point.

We also see our mural wallpapers thriving in creative areas such as a home office, study, or teenager's bedroom. The balance of warm coral and earthy tones adds visual energy without overwhelming the space, especially in rooms with generous natural light that highlights the interplay between the crisp black lines and the softer washed color blocks. For compact spaces like an entryway or powder room, the intricate details provide an engaging graphic backdrop that holds interest from up close.

Styling it

When styling a room around this wallpaper, we suggest balancing its graphic energy with clean-lined furniture and warm, tactile materials:

• Choose simple furniture in warm mid-tone woods, such as teak or oak, to complement the mid-century character of the motif without competing with its shapes.
• Incorporate plain woven textiles in off-white, oatmeal, or unbleached linen for curtains and upholstery, letting the wall mural provide all the pattern the room needs.
• Add small accents in matte black metal or warm terracotta pottery to echo the ink-like line work and earthy color blocks found in the artwork.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a warm, earthy palette of coral orange, mustard ochre, soft muted turquoise, and warm beige, all framed by deep graphic black.

For surrounding walls and woodwork, we recommend staying with warm neutrals such as soft linen, biscuit, or warm chalky whites. These shades provide a calm frame that lets the wallpaper take centre stage. If you want to introduce accent colours through upholstery or painted details, drawing out the muted turquoise or terracotta coral will tie the room together in a deliberate, cohesive way.
