How to use purple wallpaper
Lilac and lavender are bedroom colours, soft in morning light and restful at night, and they pair with grey, white and pale timber. Plum and aubergine are for evening rooms, a dining room or a snug, where they read as warm and enveloping rather than dark. Purple and green are opposites on the colour wheel, so a mauve wall makes plants and green fabric look brighter. Most of this page is Emma Hayes' painted washes and Casamance textures, which is the gentlest way into the colour.
Where to start
This is a small page and its orders over the last year were spread thinly, so start with the two brands that make most of it: Emma Hayes for washes and clouds, Casamance for textured plains such as Argile, the most sampled design here. Purple by style: floral and calm and gentle. Neighbouring colours: pink 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.
