Wallpaper - Block Print Water Lily Stripes, Marine

Created in collaboration with RNM Arts, our Block Print Water Lily Stripes, Marine wallpaper brings an artisan rhythm to the wall with its block-print-inspired botanical motifs. Graceful water lily blooms, slender buds, and floating lily pads are arranged into balanced vertical compositions, set against a lightly striated, off-white ground. The deep marine blue linework gives the design crisp visual contrast while retaining the tactile warmth of handcrafted printmaking. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure and produced on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully across an entire bedroom or lining a dedicated dining area. The vertical striping draws the eye upward, giving rooms with standard ceiling heights a graceful sense of proportion and gentle structure. Because the botanical repeats are spaced with generous breathing room on a pale background, the pattern introduces pattern without overwhelming smaller spaces like hallways or reading nooks.

On a feature wall behind a bedhead or a tailored sofa, the central floral bouquets create a distinct architectural focal point. In open-plan living areas, applying our wall murals to a defined alcove or chimney breast helps anchor the seating space while maintaining a calm, cohesive backdrop throughout the room.

Styling it

The classic marine blue and ivory palette pairs naturally with understated furniture and clean silhouettes. We would keep large upholstered pieces in neutral tones, such as oat, warm off-white, or soft stone grey, allowing the graphic floral repeat to carry the room's visual rhythm.

Light oak or bleached ash furniture works particularly well here, adding organic warmth that mirrors the botanical theme without competing with the deep blue linework. For decorative hardware and lighting, quiet accents in brushed brass, antique bronze, or matte ceramic complement the handcrafted character of the print.

Colour combinations

The pattern centres on two clear tones: a deep marine blue set against a soft, textured off-white background.

For surrounding walls and woodwork, warm whites with subtle creamy undertones create an effortless transition that softens the contrast of the navy print. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, framing the wallpapered wall with deep navy, slate blue, or indigo painted trim echoes the linework and gives the entire room a tailored, deliberate look. Soft sand, muted clay, and gentle moss green also make handsome accent tones in cushions, throws, and smaller decorative pieces.
