Patterned wallpaper: trendy yet timeless

Different styles of wallpaper patterns

♦ Floral patterns: timeless elegance

Flowers bring softness and romance to your walls. Floral wallpaper in pastel colours creates a soothing atmosphere that is ideal for bedrooms. Example: Sweet Blossom wallpaper offers a refined and timeless design.

♦ Vintage patterns: charm and authenticity

Inspired by archives and period décor, vintage wallpapers infuse your rooms with character and elegance. Perfect for a living room or dining room, they evoke history while adapting to modern interiors. Example: Gally wallpaper in collaboration with Toiles de Mayenne.

♦ Nature motifs: freshness and tranquillity

Wallpapers inspired by nature transform your interior spaces into true havens. Green hues and foliage are perfect for a bright living room or bedroom. Example: Les oiseaux wallpaper.

♦ Jungle motif: tropical immersion

Highly on-trend, jungle wallpaper offers an immersive decor with large leaves, palm trees and deep green shades. It visually enlarges the space and creates an exotic atmosphere, ideal for a living room or office. Example: Bao wallpaper.

♦ Geometric patterns: modernity and design

Straight lines, chevrons and circles create a graphic, contemporary style. In white and blue, these patterns bring rhythm and dynamism to a designer interior. They fit perfectly in a child's bedroom or a modern office. Example: Diamant wallpaper.

♦ Repetitive patterns: structure and balance

Repetitive patterns, whether small dots, stripes or discreet motifs, add structure to walls while remaining understated. They are perfect for decorating a single wall or hallway without overloading the room. Example: Marguerite Stripe Wallpaper.

Trendy decorating tips

Patterned wallpaper is no longer limited to entire walls: it can now be used in small touches to structure the space and add rhythm to the decor.

• A single accent wall: ideal for creating a focal point in a room, for example behind a sofa in the living room or at the head of the bed in a bedroom. It attracts the eye without overloading the space.
• Half wall: perfect in a child's bedroom or study, it allows you to define spaces while adding a playful touch. Combined with a plain paint colour above, it creates a beautiful balance.
• Vertical strip: a single strip of wallpaper from floor to ceiling is enough to give an impression of height. Placed behind a console table or armchair, it frames an area beautifully.
• Ceiling: a bold and very trendy choice, it immediately gives character to a room. Combined with plain walls, wallpaper on the ceiling transforms the atmosphere and creates a pleasant surprise. Discover our collection of ceiling wallpaper.
• Mixing materials: combining wallpaper and wood, or wallpaper and polished concrete, allows you to play with contrasts and give your interior a designer feel.
