Orange Wallpaper

How to use orange wallpaper

The oranges that work on a wall are the earthy ones: terracotta, rust and burnt orange, which warm a cool room the way a fire does and sit naturally with olive green, navy, cream and timber. Bright orange is for a single small wall or a child's room. Use it in entries, hallways and dining rooms, where warmth matters more than calm, and pair it with plenty of white so it reads as considered rather than loud.

Where to start

Of the designs on this page, the most ordered over the last twelve months, in any colourway, were Sandberg's Rand, Romo's Esai Seagrass, and Sandberg's Moa, Hollie and Sam; the most sampled were Argile and Casamance's burnt-orange woven texture Carioca. Orange by style: earthy and tropical and jungle. Neighbouring colours: yellow, red and brown.

Can I get a sample first?

Yes. A4 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.
