Wallpaper - Sunny Side Checks

Our Sunny Side Checks wallpaper brings a lively rhythm to the wall with an energetic checkerboard grid designed by Haley Knighten. Arranged in vertical columns of red, pink, orange, yellow, green, light blue, and dark blue, each saturated hue alternates with a soft cream square that keeps the overall composition balanced. Visible brush strokes give the motif a hand-painted look, softening the clean geometric structure with a painterly touch. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your room dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because of its structured layout and vibrant palette, this design works exceptionally well when you want the wall to set a playful tone. We especially like our wall murals in a children's bedroom, playroom, nursery, or creative home studio where dynamic colour feels right at home. In a compact playroom or reading corner, using it on a single feature wall provides an instant visual lift without overwhelming the space. Across a wider wall in a teenager's room or family living area, the repeating columns create a sense of height and vertical movement that draws the eye upward.

Styling it

The distinct post-modern and retro personality of this pattern pairs best with clean-lined furniture and simple decor. We would keep the surrounding elements relatively quiet so the wall can remain the focal point.

• Combine the wallpaper with painted furniture in matte white, light cream, or natural pale wood to balance the intensity of the colourful grid.
• Echo one or two specific shades from the motif, such as warm yellow or cobalt blue, in smaller accents like cushions, lamps, or desk accessories.
• Keep surrounding textiles mostly solid or minimally patterned to avoid visual competition with the dense geometric repeat.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper contains a rich mix of bright red, bubblegum pink, warm orange, sunny yellow, grass green, sky blue, and deep navy, set against a gentle off-white background. When choosing paint for adjacent walls or woodwork, a warm off-white or soft linen shade will seamlessly reflect the cream squares in the pattern. If you prefer a bolder, colour-drenched look, pairing the design with trim painted in soft butter yellow, muted sage, or warm terracotta will pick up on the vertical stripes and create a cohesive, energetic interior.
