Striking Patterned Wallpapers in Modern Homes
Bright wallpapers sometimes get a bum rap in modern design: in a tradition that favors white surfaces, an expressive wall covering can seem out-of-place if not antithetical. Nevertheless, we love how these designs bring liveliness and character to their rooms.
Simon and Eva Luna play in front of a wall covered in Daks wallpaper from Walnut.
Magid selected lively Whitby wallpaper by Mini Moderns for Linus’s room, along with Oeuf’s Perch bunk bed. The homeowner found the light-up rocket-ship mobile on a trip to Mexico City.
The wallpaper from Finland breaks up the clean white surface.
Playful wallpaper from Graham & Brown livens up the house’s otherwise staid
powder room, which also contains a
pint-size Ikea sink.
In the new powder room, Jill Malek wallpaper adds graphic punch to custom cabinetry.
