Wallpaper - Modern Petals

Our Modern Petals wallpaper by Veronique Charron pairs bold botanical forms with an expressive, watercolour-like style. Large berry red blooms take centre stage across a soft cream background, balanced by smaller peach and orange flowers, leafy stems in pale green and grey, and warm golden-yellow accents. The open repeat and distinct painterly shapes give the floral motif a lively, contemporary rhythm that brings visual warmth to a wall. Our wallpapers are made to measure based on your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

In a dining room or living room, we like seeing this design across an open feature wall where the large floral repeat has plenty of breathing room. The scale of the flowers is substantial enough to carry visual weight behind a low sofa, a credenza, or a dining table without feeling lost. In smaller or more intimate spaces like a bedroom, home office, or guest room, the warm cream backdrop helps the berry tones stand out as a confident focal point without making the room feel enclosed. Because the composition contains both prominent floral shapes and lighter leafy details, it works particularly well on walls with standard ceiling heights where the full rhythm of the stems and petals remains visible at eye level.

Styling it

To balance the bold red flowers and painterly character of the pattern, we suggest pairing this design with furniture that has clean, grounded silhouettes. Lighter wood tones like pale ash or warm birch echo the earthy feel of the leaves, while mid-toned woods can draw out the deeper berry notes in the petals. Keep larger upholstered pieces relatively quiet in woven neutral fabrics, allowing the floral composition to serve as the main pattern in the room. Matte black accents on lighting or slender metal table legs provide a crisp, modern counterpoint to the soft watercolor edges of the botanical shapes.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself features rich berry red, delicate peach, soft orange, and golden-yellow highlights, grounded by cool grey, pale green, and an off-white cream base. When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls or woodwork, a soft ivory or warm cream creates a clean and coherent transition that mirrors the background of the mural. If you want to lean into the botanical theme, muted sage or gentle olive tones work beautifully alongside the leaf details. For a moodier and more dramatic space, drawing out the deep berry red or an earthy charcoal for skirting boards, doors, or built-in cabinetry adds striking depth.
