Eye catching wallpaper for small, functional rooms
Create a charming backdrop for your family bathroom with Broad Stripe
Bathrooms might be a practical space, but they are a fantastic room to make design choices that will project your personal style. Bathrooms traditionally consist of hard white surfaces that can sometimes feel cold and uninviting.
Embracing bright, playful patterns like Broad Stripe – Pea Green in your bathroom can transform the space into a vibrant oasis that welcomes you inside. Add impact by combining this lively striped wallpaper with woodwork painted in complementary hues, such as Heat and Yellow-Pink.
Transform your utility room with Rodney Street
Pantries, utility rooms and laundry areas are places where you will regularly spend time doing household chores. Multi-purpose rooms are a great place to utilise beautiful colours and patterns that bring you a real sense of joy and wellbeing as you work. Surround yourself with botanical prints and vibrant green hues that reflect the beauty of nature, drawing the outside in. Use our Rodney Street – Sage & Onions wallpaper on all four walls to truly embrace this charming design.

A wallpaper collection perfect for transitional spaces
Add character to a transitional hallway space with Nip & Lassie
In any family home, the hallway is an area that will experience lots of activity each day. Introducing a hallway wallpaper in a soft neutral colourway will add an element of texture to the walls and give your hallway an inviting, homely feel.
Nip & Lassie is a flocked textured wallpaper that is brimming with character and personality. This charming countryside wallpaper is inspired by Beatrix Potter’s flock of Herdwick Sheep in the Lake District. The design includes her own sketches of her beloved collies, Nip and Lassie. When used as wallpaper on the stairs and landing, the Slaked Lime Dark colourway will bring subtle warmth to the space, pairing harmoniously with bare or painted woodwork.
Pair Road Trip with Broad Stripe to define zones in your home
In many modern homes, one room or area might need to fulfil many different functions. Throughout the day, a single part of the home might function as a relaxed sitting room, a dining area and a work-from-home space. Using wallpaper is an excellent way to define your living area into clear zones, helping you to maximise the space in your home.
Consider decorating your room in Broad Stripe – Pleat, then introduce Road Trip in the complementary Pleat colourway on one wall. The contrasting patterns will create a strong focal point, allowing you to section off this part of the room as a study space.
The ‘Storybook Papers’ collection is designed to inspire joy throughout the home. These joyful patterns can be used in a charming children’s room, or to create a warm welcome in living spaces or hallways.
