Wallpaper - Swedish Dream

In our Swedish Dream wallpaper, designed by Shirley Novak, loose watercolour blooms bring an uplifting, hand-painted feel to the wall. Bright sunflower-yellow blossoms with warm orange centres mingle with delicate light blue petals and vibrant red flowers, all connected by slender, curving green stems and leaves. Set against a clean white background, the floral elements feel open, airy, and gently whimsical rather than densely packed. We produce all our wallpapers to order based on your custom wall dimensions, printed PVC-free on paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this cheerful floral motif working especially well in a bedroom, guest room, or a creative home studio where you want to introduce colour without overwhelming the surrounding space. Because the white background keeps the visual weight light and open, the design works comfortably across all four walls in a medium-sized room, or as a focal point behind a bedstead or writing desk. In rooms with generous daylight, the soft variations within the watercolour petals become particularly clear, while the playful botanical rhythm adds character to corners that might otherwise feel plain.

Styling it

To let the expressive floral watercolour lead the room, we would keep the larger surrounding furniture relatively quiet and grounded. Painted wooden pieces in chalky off-whites or soft buttermilk tones work naturally alongside English country and classic heritage interiors. A simple upholstered bed or a minimalist timber desk allows the curving stems and bright petal tones to stand out cleanly. When choosing decorative accents, look for ceramics or textiles with simple, solid finishes rather than competing patterns, keeping the overall atmosphere relaxed and balanced.

Colour combinations

Our design features sunflower yellow, vibrant red, soft sky blue, and fresh leaf green against a crisp white backdrop. When decorating around this wallpaper, pulling the softer blue or warm creamy tones onto adjacent walls, woodwork, or curtains creates a cohesive and inviting palette. For a slightly more energetic scheme, subtle accents in warm coral, terracotta, or ochre echo the sunny centres of the flowers without distracting from the overall artwork.
