Wallpaper - Mocha

Our Mocha wallpaper brings together graphic 1950s modernist character and painterly warmth, created by designer Michael Clark. The design features a stylized coffee cup detailed with warm sunflower yellow stripes and a distinctive purple spoon, set against an aged paper background with faint, fluid ink script. With its mid-century illustrative charm, warm beige undertones, and watercolor-like visual texture, this design adds an inviting sense of nostalgia to culinary and dining spaces. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, making it simple to introduce tailored artistic character to your walls.

In the room

We designed this motif to feel right at home in culinary spaces where warmth and character are welcome. In a kitchen, pantry, or breakfast nook, the retro graphic artwork creates an engaging focal point on an accent wall behind open shelving or alongside a casual dining table. The aged paper backdrop softens the contrast of the striped cup, allowing the pattern to settle comfortably into compact spaces without overwhelming them. In a dedicated dining room, giving the wallpaper a clear, relatively open wall section lets the mid-century illustration and subtle script details be appreciated up close while establishing a relaxed, sociable atmosphere.

Styling it

To complement the vintage modernist aesthetic of this wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined mid-century furniture and unpretentious materials. Warm wood pieces, such as teak, walnut, or honeyed birch chairs and tables, echo the golden yellow and aged parchment tones in the print. Surrounding the wall with simple ceramic tableware, matte stoneware, or painted shaker-style cabinetry helps ground the retro graphic motif. Keeping nearby surfaces relatively simple allows the playful watercolor cup and purple accent to serve as the visual centerpiece.

Color combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centers on warm beige and soft paper tones, brightened by sunflower yellow and grounded by the subtle purple accent in the spoon. When painting neighboring walls or choosing cabinetry, creamy off-whites, warm oats, and soft parchment shades keep the overall room cohesive and gentle. For a richer contrast, muted plum or aubergine accents in dining cushions or kitchen accessories pull directly from the spoon's color, while deep ochre or mustard elements emphasize the cup's geometric stripes.
