Wallpaper - Hollyhocks

Created in collaboration with artist Katrina Pete, our Hollyhocks wallpaper captures the soft, fluid beauty of garden blooms through loose watercolour washes. Delicate pale petals drift across the composition, anchored by stems and foliage in shades of sea green, moss, and muted sage. The painterly bleeding of pigments and generous white space create an airy, botanical landscape that feels both modern and gentle. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this mural design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

We love this design for spaces where you want to introduce a serene, nature-inspired atmosphere without overwhelming the room. In a bedroom, placing the floral mural behind the headboard creates a calming backdrop where the soft green washes frame the sleeping space. In a living room or meditation space, installing it across a wide, uninterrupted accent wall allows the full movement of the watercolour botanicals to unfold naturally. Because the background is predominantly light with translucent washes, it sits effortlessly in rooms with ample natural daylight as well as spaces that rely on warm, indirect lamplight in the evenings.

Styling it

To complement the light and organic feel of the watercolour artwork, we suggest pairing it with clean, contemporary furnishings and natural finishes:

• Choose light-toned timber such as bleached ash, pale oak, or birch to keep the surrounding scheme grounded yet visually light.
• Introduce soft, tactile textiles like washed linen bedding or cotton throws in off-white, oat, or pale grey to mirror the delicate transparency of the petals.
• Keep surrounding decorative accents simple and organic, favouring unglazed stoneware ceramics or clear glass vases that let the botanical motif remain the clear focal point.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres on soft sea greens, muted olive tones, pale celadon, and gentle off-white petal highlights. When selecting paint colours for adjacent walls, skirting boards, or cabinetry, consider a soft chalky white or a muted neutral with a subtle cool undertone to harmonise with the pale ground. For a slightly more immersive palette, pulling a soft sage green or eucalyptus shade directly from the painted leaves creates a seamless transition between the wallpapered feature wall and surrounding painted surfaces.
