Purple Wallpaper

Purple is a colour that rewards a bit of nerve. A deep plum feels rich and enveloping; lit right, it practically glows.

Where purple wallpaper works

Purple wallpaper is at its best where you want richness and a bit of theatre. A deep plum makes a dramatic feature wall in a bedroom, living room or dining room, and it brings real cosiness to a snug or a study you want to feel enveloping. It's a natural in the rooms you use in the evening, where lamplight deepens the colour and makes it glow. Because plum sits between warm and cool, purple wallpaper pairs beautifully with brass and gold, with soft pink, and with deep green for a proper jewel-box feel. A little goes a long way, so one feature wall is often plenty.

Colours, and free recolouring to your shade

These designs are drawn in a deep, glowing plum, but purple wallpaper has real range, and this is where the free recolour comes in. Whether you want a soft lilac or lavender for something gentle, a bright violet, or a deep aubergine or mulberry for real drama, every design can be recoloured for free to the exact purple you have in mind. So there's a purple wallpaper here whether you want barely-there lilac or deep, dramatic aubergine. Send me your paint code and I'll adjust the artwork to match your room before it prints, at no extra cost.

Made to order

Every purple wallpaper design comes in peel and stick, traditional non-pasted and pre-pasted. All the patterns are original artwork, drawn by hand by Sara at Summer Skye Studio, printed to order on PVC-free paper.

Order a sample before you commit. Purple is one of the trickiest colours to judge on a screen: a plum can look warmer or cooler depending on the light, and a deep purple can read almost brown or almost black in a dark room. A sample on your own wall, in your own light, is the only way to be sure. Purple wallpaper is worth trying before you buy.
