Wallpaper - Summer Stripes

Our Summer Stripes wallpaper brings a calm, hand-painted rhythm to horizontal striping. Created by Julia Dreams, the design alternates painted bands of fern green, deep charcoal, muted sand, and delicate pale blush across a soft off-white background. The edges of each stripe retain subtle painterly variations, softening the geometric structure so it never feels rigid or mechanical. The generous spacing between lines gives the pattern a bright, airy balance that suits classic and modern interiors alike. Like all our wallpapers, this mural wallpaper is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

The horizontal layout of this design brings a grounded, expansive feeling to a space. In a living room or dining room, we would place this wallpaper across a main wall behind a low sideboard or sofa, where the linear movement draws the eye naturally across the width of the room. It also works beautifully wrapped around all four walls in a bedroom or home office, creating a restful atmosphere without overwhelming smaller details.

Because the repeat is open and uncluttered, the pattern handles architectural interruptions with ease. In hallways, staircases, or bathrooms with doorways and high windows, the painted bands continue smoothly from one section to the next.

Styling it

The softened lines of this striped motif pair naturally with simple, unadorned interior pieces. We like combining it with warm wood furniture, such as light oak or warm birch, which echoes the natural, crafted quality of the painted brushstrokes. To keep the focus on the horizontal flow of the pattern, low-profile seating and streamlined shelving work particularly well.

For textiles, relaxed weaves in plain finishes complement the wall without competing with the striping. A flatweave wool floor rug in a quiet oat tone or plain linen window dressings keep the room balanced, allowing the subtle colour shifts in the wallpaper to lead the decorative scheme.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper rests on an off-white foundation, punctuated by fern green, charcoal, warm sand, and faint blush. Surrounding walls and painted woodwork painted in matching warm off-white or light biscuit tones will keep the room unified and open.

To draw out specific elements of the repeat, deeper accents work wonderfully. You could introduce muted sage or moss greens on surrounding woodwork, or incorporate charcoal and soft black detailing in lamp bases, side tables, or picture frames to echo the darkest horizontal stripe.
