Wallpaper - Merton Poppies

Our Merton Poppies wallpaper, designed by Julia Dreams, brings an Arts and Crafts heritage aesthetic to life through sinuous stems, curling leaves, and blooming poppy blossoms. Set against a deep hunter green ground, the earthy terracotta and blush poppy petals intertwine with sage foliage and delicate cream-white floral accents. The block-print-inspired line work and organic flow give this floral pattern a timeless, grounded rhythm across the wall. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this design brings classical decorative charm and natural movement into any interior.

In the room

In a living room or bedroom, we would give Merton Poppies space across a prominent wall where its flowing vines and generous blooms can be appreciated in full. The dense, layered foliage and deep green background create a rich, cocooning backdrop that works particularly well in spaces intended for rest or quiet conversation, such as a home library or reading nook. Because the repeat combines larger poppy heads with finer intertwining stems, it holds interest whether viewed from across the room or up close. In rooms with ample natural daylight, the contrasts between the sage leaves and warm terracotta petals stand out clearly, while subdued evening lamplight enhances the cosy, enveloping character of the dark green base.

Styling it

We recommend letting the botanical movement of the wallpaper lead the scheme. Pair it with mid-to-dark warm wood tones, such as antique walnut, mahogany, or rich oak, which naturally echo the heritage feel of the pattern. Keeping large upholstered pieces in understated neutral fabrics allows the intricate foliage to remain the focal point. To add gentle contrast, incorporate brushed brass or aged bronze accents in lighting or hardware, which pick up the warm undertones of the terracotta flowers.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper centers on a rich palette of hunter green, earthy terracotta pink, soft sage, and creamy white. For surrounding painted walls, skirting, or architraves, a soft muted sage or a deep moss green creates an immersive, tonal extension of the background foliage. If you prefer a lighter, more open balance, a warm parchment or cream drawn from the smaller blossom highlights provides a fresh and elegant frame for the pattern.
