Wallpaper - Food Phrases I

Our typography wallpaper created in collaboration with designer Becky Thorns brings graphic simplicity to the wall with the hand-painted phrase "take it easy". Set in deep navy blue lettering against a soft, warm cream background, the composition balances bold brushwork with plenty of open space. The large-scale script has a casual, painterly character that works as a striking focal point while maintaining a relaxed visual tone. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure to fit your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because of the bold central lettering and generous negative space, we see this design working particularly well on an accent wall in a living room, bedroom, or a dedicated home office. In an open-plan living area or dining space, placing the design on an uninterrupted wall lets the vertical phrasing command attention without competing against tall furniture. If you are decorating a bedroom, positioning the mural wallpaper behind the bed creates a clean, graphic headboard effect. The crisp contrast between the dark navy brushstrokes and the light off-white backdrop holds up well across different lighting conditions, staying clear in bright daylight and taking on a cosier feel in the evening.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this design with contemporary, unfussy furniture that echoes its relaxed character. Low-profile seating in textured neutral upholstery keeps the focus on the typographic art without overwhelming the room. Warm wood finishes, such as mid-tone oak or walnut shelving, provide an organic grounding element alongside the graphic navy lettering. Minimal black or dark navy accents elsewhere in the room, whether in a simple task lamp or decorative ceramics, can subtly tie the space together.

Colour combinations

The design centres on a classic two-tone palette of deep navy blue and warm off-white cream. To create a cohesive look across adjacent painted walls, we suggest matching the background with warm ivory, soft chalk, or pale linen tones. If you want to introduce additional depth through larger furniture or textiles, surrounding the wallpaper with muted shades of dusty blue, warm terracotta, or earthy tan creates a balanced, layered palette that complements the dark navy lettering.
