Wallpaper - Memphis Shapes

Our Memphis Shapes wallpaper brings a high-energy postmodern look to the wall, pairing bold geometric forms with an unapologetically graphic palette. Set against a rich cobalt blue ground, the composition scatters circles, triangles, squiggles, and textured arches across the surface in bright tones of pink, yellow, mint green, and coral. Black grid patterns, crosses, and wavy line work break through the larger blocks of color, giving the repeat its distinctly playful, eighties-inspired rhythm. Produced made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it is an expressive choice for spaces that embrace personality and retro graphic art.

In the room

Because the visual rhythm is lively and high contrast, we find this design works exceptionally well as a focused feature wall behind a desk, bed, or lounge seating. In a playroom, teenage room, or family game space, the scattered shapes bring an engaging sense of movement that instantly defines the room. While the vibrant cobalt blue creates a strong presence, using it on an accent wall allows you to frame the room without overwhelming it, giving the geometric elements plenty of space to stand out.

Styling it

To let the graphic artwork take center stage, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with relatively simple furniture silhouettes. Clean, modern pieces in matte black, crisp white, or bright painted lacquers echo the post-modern geometry without competing with the motifs. Incorporating simple tubular metal accents or rounded seating shapes reinforces the retro aesthetic, while keeping surrounding decor streamlined ensures the space feels intentional and balanced rather than cluttered.

Color combinations

The design is built around a saturated cobalt blue base accented by vivid pink, golden yellow, soft mint, and contrasting black and white details. When selecting surrounding finishes, pulling out crisp white or muted gray for adjacent walls and trim provides a clean, grounding border. If you prefer a more dynamic color scheme, introducing accents in sunflower yellow, bubblegum pink, or deep navy creates a cohesive connection to the elements in the wallpaper.
