Wallpaper - Batik Trusmi

Created by Julia Dreams, our Batik Trusmi wallpaper brings a rhythmic, Art Deco-inspired geometry into the home with a distinctly hand-painted appearance. The composition centres around repeating diamond shapes, framed by sweeping chevron bands in dark charcoal and soft seafoam green against a calm, pale neutral backdrop. Subtle red accent squares punctuate the heart of each diamond, giving the pattern an artistic focal point without disrupting its balanced flow. Produced to measure and completely PVC-free, the wallpaper features a light paper structure that complements the painted character of the motif.

In the room

The structured rhythm of this design makes it a versatile choice for several areas of the home, particularly where you want pattern to create architectural interest. In a living room, we love seeing it on a main feature wall behind a low sofa or credenza, where the diamond repeats have enough width to establish a continuous visual cadence.

Because of its balanced vertical and horizontal movement, Batik Trusmi also works wonderfully along a hallway or staircase wall. The repeating lines naturally guide the eye upward and through transitional spaces, turning what is often a functional corridor into a considered interior moment.

Styling it

When styling around this wallpaper, we recommend leaning into clean-lined furniture that echoes its retro and Deco undertones without competing with the brushwork. Mid-century silhouettes, low-profile seating, and simple architectural profiles let the wall pattern remain the primary visual focus in the space.

To balance the graphic chevron bands, introduce smooth or matte surfaces nearby, such as painted woodwork, plain upholstery, or brushed metal accents in warm bronze or blackened steel. Keeping large textiles relatively unpatterned helps anchor the room, allowing the geometric lines of the wallpaper to breathe.

Colour combinations

The motif relies on a harmonious mix of soft seafoam green, deep charcoal, off-white neutral tones, and tiny touches of terracotta red. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or larger furnishings, picking up the pale neutral base tone keeps the room feeling airy and cohesive.

If you prefer more contrast, deep charcoal or muted slate grey on adjacent skirting and doors provides a crisp, tailored frame for the wallpaper. For soft furnishings, introducing subtle sage, mint, or warm earthy terracotta accents will naturally tie the entire palette together.
