Wallpaper - Summer Cottage II

Our Summer Cottage II wallpaper, created by Katrina Pete, brings together a quaint rural cottage, a white picket fence, and a blooming garden of poppies and wildflowers against a soft baby blue gingham backdrop. The design has a gentle watercolour look with a warm pastel palette, blending traditional country charm with an orderly geometric pattern. Printed on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this made-to-measure wallpaper offers a cheerful, storybook character that brings garden life straight to your walls.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in nurseries, children's bedrooms, toddler rooms, and dedicated playrooms. The combination of delicate meadow flowers and the geometric check creates a calm visual rhythm that suits spaces meant for daytime play and rest. In a child's bedroom or nursery, we would place this wallpaper across a main wall behind a cot or bed, giving the cottage and garden scene enough continuous space to unfold without being interrupted by tall wardrobes. Because the gingham background provides a steady, balanced structure, the pattern also works nicely across multiple walls in smaller rooms or cosy reading corners.

Styling it

To complement the storybook feel, we suggest keeping the surrounding furnishings simple and timeless. Natural timber furniture in light tones, such as pine or painted white wood, pairs naturally with the picket fence and cottage details in the artwork.

For soft furnishings, simple cotton or plain woven fabrics in muted cream or soft sky tones allow the floral motif to remain the primary focus. Keeping larger rugs and accessories relatively neutral ensures the combination of check and wildflowers feels light and uncluttered.

Colour combinations

The design features a palette of baby blue in the gingham check, complemented by soft pastel greens, warm floral tones from the poppies, and crisp white in the fence and cottage. When painting adjoining walls or woodwork, we recommend gentle off-whites or chalky creams to echo the cottage elements. For a slightly more colourful scheme, a very pale pastel blue that matches the gingham or a soft meadow green pulled from the foliage works beautifully on skirting boards, shelving, or neighbouring walls.
