Wallpaper - Quaking Grass

Designed by Deborah Revell, our Quaking Grass wallpaper features slender botanical stems and distinctive nodding seed heads that bring a light, organic rhythm to the wall. Soft green tones and subtle brown tips rise against a pale, painterly backdrop with delicate pastel nuances, creating an open and airy composition with a natural presence. Like all our wallpapers, this mural wallpaper is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

In a bedroom or living room, we see this botanical design working especially well across a main feature wall where the upright stems and suspended seed heads have space to unfold. Because the upper part of the composition remains light and airy, it prevents the room from feeling visually enclosed, making it a natural choice for rooms with standard ceiling heights or quieter spaces dedicated to relaxation. Positioning the wallpaper behind a bed frame or low-backed sofa allows the elegant upper grasses to stay fully visible and serve as an understated focal point.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this design with contemporary Scandinavian or modern minimalist interiors that celebrate simple silhouettes and organic textures.

• Keep large furniture low and streamlined so the delicate botanical forms remain unobstructed across the wall.
• Introduce natural finishes such as light oak, ash, or painted white wood to complement the soft background and preserve an open feel.
• Choose textiles in plain, textured weaves to balance the fine linear detail of the grass stems without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper's palette centres on muted grassy greens, subtle army green accents, and earthy brown hints against an off-white and pale pastel ground. Around this design, we suggest combining soft neutral tones like chalk white, pale warm grey, or muted stone on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want to draw out the botanical elements more deeply, introducing accents in moss green, olive, or soft oat will create a cohesive, nature-inspired palette throughout the room.
