Description
What colours are in this wallpaper?
The design sits on a soft white ground with two tones of blue: a mid periwinkle and a deeper indigo running through the stripes. Blues like these are among the easiest colours to live with in a bedroom, since they settle the eye rather than energising it, which is why the room tends to feel calmer with it on the wall than lively.
Will the stripes still look good on a small wall?
Yes. Because the stripes run the full width of the panel rather than building to one large motif, even a narrow wall section shows the pattern properly rather than reading as a random fragment, so it works on everything from a feature wall to a smaller recess.
Is this a good design for behind a bed?
It works well there. A wall behind a bed head is mostly seen at the edges since the headboard covers the centre, and horizontal stripes like these hold their pattern at the margins rather than relying on a central image, so the design still reads clearly either side of the bed.
Are the stripes straight or hand-painted looking?
They are drawn with a loose, brushed edge rather than a crisp ruled line, giving the stripes a gouache-like, hand-painted quality. This softens the geometry so the wall reads as considered pattern rather than a strict technical stripe.
Will strong Highveld sunlight affect how bold this looks?
Bright inland daylight pushes any printed colour towards looking more saturated, so the indigo will likely read a touch deeper and the stripes a touch more defined on a sunlit wall than they do on screen. In a room with hard daylight the contrast between the white ground and the blue stripes will feel more pronounced.
