Wallpaper - Big Blue Bloom

Created by Laura Horn, our Big Blue Bloom wallpaper brings together expressive watercolour washes and delicate botanical line drawings in an expansive, abstract composition. Deep cobalt and flowing blue ink pools form the foundation of the motif, layered alongside warm earthy shapes, blush-toned washes, and loose mark-making. Finer details, such as etched white leaf veining, floating floral outlines, and subtle golden-hued pencil strokes, sit over the fluid background to create a balanced sense of movement and rhythm. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an artistic focal point that feels both serene and visually engaging.

In the room

Because of the varied scale of the washes and delicate line illustrations, we like this design best on an open, uninterrupted wall where the full panorama can unfold. It works naturally as a feature wall in a tranquil bedroom behind a headboard or in an art studio or dedicated creative space where the painterly character can set an inspiring tone. In a calm meditation room or a relaxed living area, positioning the mural wallpaper where natural daylight catches the nuanced bleed between the cobalt blues and softer blush tones lets the gentle shifts in saturation show at their best.

Styling it

To balance the organic fluidity and expressive brushwork of the wallpaper, we suggest keeping the larger furniture relatively grounded and clean-lined. Low-profile seating or minimalist timber frames allow the artwork to command the wall without making the room feel crowded.

Introducing tactile materials like raw linen, slubbed wool throws, or unglazed ceramic accents echoes the hand-crafted, layered feel of the watercolour without competing with its shapes. Warm timber tones or understated matte accents will sit quietly against the deep cobalt base while complementing the warmer blush and ochre details scattered across the design.

Colour combinations

The artwork is built around rich cobalt, indigo, and soft watery blues, grounded by earthy terracotta, dusty blush, and warm chocolate brown washes, accented with crisp white and warm line work.

When choosing shades for adjoining painted walls, architectural trim, or large textiles, we recommend:

• Off-white or soft alabaster to reflect the luminous background of the paper and keep the surrounding space feeling airy.
• Warm sand, muted beige, or gentle blush to pull out the subtle earthy undertones and create a warm, cohesive transition.
• Deep navy or slate blue accents on woodwork, cushions, or low cabinetry to ground the room and echo the strongest pigments in the design.
