Wallpaper - Batik Barus

Designed by Julia Dreams, our Batik Barus wallpaper brings together bold geometric structure with a lively, hand-painted look inspired by 1970s patterns. Diamond forms and chevron rhythms in warm coral orange are framed by off-white diagonal bands, with small turquoise accents nestled into each motif. The repeat has a playful, balanced energy that gives walls distinctive character without feeling overly rigid. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper, this design brings warmth and cheerful graphic detail to creative interior spaces.

In the room

In residential settings, we see this pattern working especially well in a playroom or a teenage room, where its upbeat rhythm and bright palette feel right at home. The repeating diamond geometry provides a clear visual structure, making it a great option for an accent wall behind a study desk, a low bed, or a reading corner. Because the motif is arranged in an orderly geometric grid, it also works across multiple walls in a compact room without overwhelming the space, provided surrounding elements remain relatively quiet.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we suggest leaning into its retro character with clean-lined furniture and simple shapes. Warm timber pieces or painted white shelving balance the vibrancy of the coral tones nicely. Keep surrounding fabrics and larger items relatively unpatterned so the geometric rhythm on the wall remains the primary focal point. Adding subtle touches of teal or turquoise through small decorative accessories helps tie the whole scheme together.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on rich coral orange, clean off-white diagonal stripes, and small contrasting accents of turquoise. To build a cohesive room around it, consider soft off-white or light neutral tones for adjacent walls, skirting, and door frames to keep the space open and light. If you want a more playful, layered aesthetic, warm terracotta, soft peach, or muted teal accents can be introduced through cushions, lamps, or small pieces of painted furniture.
