Wallpaper - Sunworn Timber

Our Sunworn Timber wallpaper captures the rich visual character of horizontal timber cladding, weathered by time and the elements. Created by Tono Balaguer, this design layers distressed, peeling yellow paint over rough wood grain and visible knot details, accented by subtle touches of white and soft pink across earthy, dark orange undertones. The horizontal planks create a grounded, expansive rhythm across the wall, making it a distinctive focal point for spaces that embrace rustic, industrial, or wabi-sabi aesthetics. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers a straightforward way to introduce tactile warmth and vintage charm to your interior.

In the room

The strong horizontal direction of the timber motif works especially well to visually broaden a room, making it a natural choice for a feature wall behind a sofa, a dining table, or in a dedicated hobby room or home art studio. Because the pattern carries significant visual detail and deep earthy tones, we find it shows its best qualities on a wall with minimal tall furniture blocking the lower planks. In spaces with good natural daylight, the contrasts between the flaking yellow paint and the dark wood grain become particularly vivid, while warmer artificial lighting in the evening enhances the cosy, sun-baked character of the orange base tones.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we suggest balancing its heavily textured, rustic appearance with clean, considered interior choices:

• Pair with understated furniture in matte black metal or smooth painted finishes to create a sharp contrast against the rough, weathered wood pattern.
• Choose surrounding fabrics in simple, unpatterned weaves such as plain cotton or heavy canvas in warm stone, off-white, or muted sand to let the wall carry the visual weight.
• Incorporate vintage or industrial accents, like cast iron hardware or exposed ceramic vessels, which echo the authentic, timeworn mood of the mural wallpapers.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by rich dark orange tones, aged yellow, and weathered grey-brown timber hues, with small highlights of chalky white and dusty pink showing through the distressed paint layers. For adjacent painted walls and woodwork, we recommend quiet neutrals like warm ivory, soft linen, or muted biscuit to keep the room feeling balanced and open. If you want a moodier, more grounded palette, deep charcoal, muted bronze, or warm clay on surrounding trim will tie directly into the darker grain lines within the boards.
