Designed by Haley Knighten, our Sunny Side Stripes wallpaper arranges four vertical color-blocked columns filled with horizontal, hand-painted lines. The rhythm moves across soft pink stripes set over a muted pink backdrop, followed by warm orange on pink, fresh green against pale yellow, and sky blue paired with sunny yellow. The painted-looking texture gives each line an approachable, human character that keeps the geometric structure feeling relaxed. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings cheerful color and balanced geometric pattern to your space.
In the room
The combination of vertical framing and horizontal striping gives this design an engaging visual balance that works across different room sizes. In a nursery, playroom, or toddler room, we like using it on an accent wall behind a crib or play table to establish a friendly, colorful focal point without overpowering the space. Because the pastel palette remains soft and cohesive, the pattern also works well across multiple walls in a larger children's bedroom or teenage room where you want to introduce lively color throughout.
For a creative home office or art studio, the structured color blocks provide an inspiring backdrop that frames work areas nicely. The repeat offers plenty of vertical interest, making it particularly effective on walls with average or taller ceilings where the full column transitions can unfold naturally. In a contemporary living room, we would place it along a main sofa wall where lower furniture leaves the broad horizontal rhythm open to view.
Styling it
When styling around Sunny Side Stripes, we suggest balancing the energetic multi-column layout with clean, simple shapes in your furniture. Mid-century modern or contemporary pieces with smooth silhouettes prevent the room from feeling too busy. Light painted furniture in off-white, soft cream, or natural pale birch pairs effortlessly with the pastel base tones.
To keep the focus on the wallpaper, we recommend choosing solid upholstery and unpatterned textiles rather than introducing competing geometric prints. A simple woven wool rug in cream or light oatmeal grounds the floor area, while minimalist lighting fixtures in matte white or subtle warm metal keep the overall look modern, fresh, and uncluttered.
Color combinations
Our wallpaper centers on a sunny pastel palette featuring baby pink, soft orange, pale yellow, mint green, and light blue. To create a cohesive room scheme, you can pull any single color from the pattern to use on neighboring walls, painted baseboards, or window trim.
For a quiet, airy backdrop, soft ivory, warm alabaster, or light cream paint allows the pastel columns to stand out cleanly. If you prefer a more playful and tonal interior, a soft blush pink or gentle buttermilk yellow on surrounding walls will wrap the room in cheerful warmth. Pale slate or soft dusty blue also creates an attractive contrast when used on painted cabinetry, interior doors, or small furniture accents.
