Wallpaper - Crush Ikat

Our Crush Ikat wallpaper, created in collaboration with Nicetoseeya, brings an expressive watercolour interpretation to traditional ikat patterning. Diamond geometries and painterly vertical drips blend vivid rust and deep orange with accents of indigo, teal, and violet against a clean white ground. The rhythm of the pattern gives the surface energetic movement with a subtle 1970s eclectic character. Produced made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this design brings an artistic focal point to any interior.

In the room

We love seeing this design make a confident statement across a living room feature wall, especially behind a low-profile sofa where the full height of the repeat can be appreciated. Because of its lively geometric movement, it also suits creative residential spaces like a home art studio or hobby room, bringing a vibrant, workshop-like atmosphere to the space. In a compact room, using our wallpapers on a single accent wall keeps the energetic composition balanced, while in larger rooms with higher ceilings, the diamond rhythm has room to flow across a broader uninterrupted wall.

Styling it

Because Crush Ikat has a bold visual character, we recommend pairing it with furniture and architectural elements that let the artwork take centre stage:

• Ground the room with warm mid-century or vintage wood tones, such as teak or dark walnut, which complement the rich rust and terracotta shades in the pattern.
• Balance the expressive watercolour marks by choosing clean-lined upholstery in plain woven textiles or neutral boucle rather than competing patterned fabrics.
• Introduce understated metallic accents in aged bronze or blackened iron to pick up the deeper indigo and charcoal details in the motif.

Colour combinations

The motif centres on rich rust, burnt orange, and terracotta, contrasted against washes of indigo, teal, and violet on an off-white backdrop. When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or built-in shelving, warm off-whites or soft linen tones create a crisp, cohesive setting. If you want a deeper, moodier palette, pull the muted indigo or slate blue from the pattern onto adjacent trim or painted cabinetry to highlight the cooler watercolour accents.
