Wallpaper - Block Print Water Lily Stripes, Slate

Our Block Print Water Lily Stripes, Slate wallpaper pairs stylised water lily bouquets with delicate vertical stripe detailing, created by RNM Arts. What we particularly appreciate about this design is the balance between the artisanal block-print-inspired linework and the open, calm background with its woven-looking visual texture. The deep slate blue-grey illustration stands out cleanly against the soft, warm stone ground, giving the repeat a rhythmic, structured elegance. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a timeless, tailored feel to any interior.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working beautifully across several walls in a bedroom, where the orderly vertical arrangement creates a serene and grounded atmosphere. Because the motif is structured as a vertical stripe repeat rather than a dense, chaotic field, it helps draw the eye upwards, making it especially effective in rooms with lower ceilings or narrower layouts like hallways and dressing rooms.

In a living room or dining area, our design performs wonderfully both as a focal wall behind a sofa or sideboard and wrapped across an entire room. The generous spacing between the floral clusters prevents the pattern from feeling crowded, allowing the wall to breathe while still providing distinct decorative character.

Styling it

The block-print character and clean geometry make this wallpaper naturally suited to classic, Arts and Crafts, and understated Scandinavian-inspired interiors. We suggest pairing it with furniture that echoes its quiet craftsmanship:

• Choose warm wood pieces, such as mid-tone oak or walnut, to complement the soft neutral background and ground the slate linework.
• Introduce tactile fabrics like washed linen drapery or textured wool upholstery in cream, oatmeal, or muted charcoal to enhance the relaxed, crafted mood.
• Incorporate blackened metal or antique brass accents in lighting and hardware to subtly mirror the dark slate tones without overwhelming the delicate pattern.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on two key tones: a deep slate blue-grey for the printed linework and a pale, warm stone-beige background.

When choosing surrounding paint colours and finishes, we recommend working with warm off-whites, soft bone, or muted chalky greys on adjacent walls, ceilings, and skirting boards. For a richer, more cocooning contrast, you can pick out the deep slate tone for painted woodwork, interior doors, or built-in cabinetry, creating a tailored, cohesive look throughout the space.
