Wallpaper - Stubbs, Walnut

Our Stubbs wallpaper brings the structured look of parquet-style woodwork to the wall through an orderly grid of square tiles. Each section displays its own wood grain direction, knots, and organic variations, moving from lighter tan shades to deep umber and chocolate browns. The rhythmic tile layout gives the surface a balanced, architectural feel while the individual grain details prevent the geometry from feeling rigid. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings grounded warmth and visual depth to any interior.

In the room

In a living room, we like using this design across a main feature wall behind a sofa or media unit, where the continuous grid has room to establish its geometric rhythm. The alternating wood grain tiles create enough visual interest to anchor a larger room without overwhelming it. For a dedicated home office, placing the wallpaper along the wall behind your desk creates an engaging, structured backdrop for video calls and daily focus.

Because the pattern is built from balanced, repeating squares, it adapts well to both wider open walls and more compact spaces. In an entryway or hallway, the grid introduces clear visual order, while in a cabin or open living area, the earthy tones help connect the interior with natural surroundings.

Styling it

The clean geometry and rich wood grain character pair naturally with modern rustic and organic contemporary interiors. To keep the focus on the pattern:

• Choose furniture with clean, unadorned silhouettes so the geometric grid of the wall remains the primary visual statement.
• Incorporate matte black metal details in lighting fixtures or table legs to echo the crisp lines between the tiles.
• Use textured natural fabrics such as unbleached linen or bouclé for seating and cushions to soften the graphic layout.

Colour combinations

Our design centres on an earthy spectrum of warm tan, mid-tone brown, and deep umber. When selecting colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, and trim, consider how they interact with these undertones:

Soft off-white or muted stone on adjacent walls keeps the space bright while allowing the brown tones of the tiles to stand out clearly. Warm taupe or muted mushroom shades create a subtle, tonal transition that wraps the entire room in warmth. If you prefer higher contrast, deep charcoal or muted olive on adjoining doors or built-in joinery provides a strong, grounded complement to the timber tones.
