Wallpaper - Delmar

Our Delmar wallpaper, designed by Julia Dreams, captures a warm 1970s revival aesthetic with layered concentric arches, clean graphic outlines, and cheerful daisy motifs nestled inside each curve. Rendered in an earthy retro palette of soft beige, muted mustard yellow, warm tan, and pale duck-egg blue, the repeating rainbow-like scallops bring a rhythmic, nostalgic energy to interior spaces. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our design offers an expressive geometric accent that is straightforward to hang and easy to live with.

In the room

With its graphic geometry and nostalgic character, Delmar brings distinct rhythm and warmth to private living areas. In a bedroom or guest room, we particularly like seeing it behind a headboard where the repeating arches create a decorative focal point without overwhelming the rest of the space. The playful scale and gentle floral accents also make this wallpaper feel right at home in a nursery, playroom, or teenage room, adding personality while keeping the overall atmosphere soft and grounded. For smaller spaces like a powder room, wrapping all four walls can produce a wonderfully enveloping retro look, while in larger open rooms, placing it on a single uninterrupted feature wall gives the repeating pattern room to breathe.

Styling it

To complement the distinct 1970s aesthetic, we would pair Delmar with simple, low-profile furniture and warm wood finishes like teak, walnut, or honeyed pine. Keeping large upholstered pieces relatively neutral in warm cream or tan lets the geometric rhythm of the wallpaper take centre stage. For accents and smaller accessories, introducing touches of mustard, matte black metal hardware, or natural woven textures helps ground the design without competing against the arched line work.

Colour combinations

The pattern centres around an earthy 1970s palette of warm beige, muted mustard yellow, tan, and soft duck-egg blue, outlined with crisp defining bands and punctuated by off-white daisies. When painting adjacent walls, trim, or cabinetry, we recommend soft warm whites, rich caramel tones, or gentle sandy greiges to extend the wallpaper's natural warmth. If you prefer a subtle contrast, picking up the cool duck-egg blue or a light olive on adjoining doors, skirtings, or textiles offers a balanced, intentional companion to the earthier base shades.
