How to use multicolour wallpaper

A multicoloured wallpaper does the decorating for you: pick one colour from the design for the paint and one for the textiles, and the room is finished. It suits entries, children's rooms and dining rooms, and it wants one wall, with the other three in a colour lifted from the paper. Look at the ground colour rather than the motifs when you judge it, because the ground is what you will see most from across the room.

Where to start

Of the designs on this page, the most ordered over the last twelve months were Sandberg's Lo and the made-to-measure Wilton, and the most sampled was the Harry Potter™ Hogwarts Library mural. Multicolour by style: kids' wallpaper, floral, chinoiserie and Art Deco. Every other colour has its own page, starting with green and blue.

Can I get a sample first?

Yes. Samples are A$10 each plus A$5 postage within Australia, A$18 to New Zealand and A$35 elsewhere, sent by letter mail and usually with you within a week. Colour is the one thing a screen cannot settle, so we recommend it.
