Wallpaper - Tangier

Our Tangier wallpaper, designed by Julia Dreams, brings an intricate geometric mosaic tile motif to life with a layered, earthy presence. The pattern centers on bold multi-pointed star forms intertwined with structured diamonds, squares, and cross medallions. Rendered in a grounded palette of army green, deep terracotta brown, warm slate blue, and crisp off-white, the visual texture carries the weathered, artisanal quality of traditional tilework. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this design offers a rich heritage aesthetic with clean architectural symmetry.

In the room

The rhythmic geometry and earthy contrast of Tangier make it an engaging centerpiece for private living areas and home libraries. In a living room, we particularly like seeing this design used across a main feature wall behind a sofa or credenza, where the repeating star and medallion geometry has space to establish its architectural rhythm. Because the repeat is dense and well-balanced, it anchors the room without feeling visually scattered.

In a home library or study, we find the heritage character works naturally alongside floor-to-ceiling shelving and reading nooks. The combination of structured lines and earthy army green tones creates an inviting, scholarly atmosphere that feels grounded and intentional across both open expanses and narrower wall sections.

Styling it

Because the geometric tile pattern provides significant visual movement, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture silhouettes relatively clean and grounded. Straightforward, tailored seating in neutral linen, muted olive, or rich brown leather pairs comfortably with the star motifs without competing for attention.

To complement the artisanal tile look, we would incorporate warm wood furniture, such as stained walnut, antique oak, or teak, which reinforces the historic, colonial-inspired aesthetic. Matte brass or antique bronze accents on lamps and hardware echo the earthy tones in the print, adding quiet warmth without introducing high-contrast metallic shine.

Color combinations

Our Tangier design combines earthy army green, deep terracotta brown, dusty slate blue, and a soft ivory ground. When painting adjacent walls, trim, or built-in cabinetry, pulling from these foundational shades creates a cohesive, considered palette throughout the space.

For a bright and balanced look, a soft off-white or light warm greige on surrounding surfaces reflects the ivory tiles and allows the wallpaper to take center stage. If you prefer a moodier, enveloping feel, pairing the design with muted olive or deep moss paint on nearby trims and doors draws out the green star elements beautifully. Muted terracotta and deep navy accents in cushions or throws also provide a natural visual bridge to the darker mosaic tiles.
