Arches Wallpaper: Hand-Drawn Scandinavian Arch Design

Arches Wallpaper

There's a rhythm to a repeating arch that's hard to explain but easy to feel. This arches wallpaper layers row upon row of hand-drawn arches into a calm, steady pattern that fills a wall without crowding it.

The hand-drawn lines and muted palette give it a quiet, Scandinavian feel, minimalist without being stark. Each arch is drawn by hand, so this arches wallpaper has a soft, linen-like texture and a warmth that keeps the geometry from feeling cold.

Where this arches wallpaper works

This is arches wallpaper for rooms you want to feel restful rather than restless. It sits naturally in Scandinavian, Japandi and organic modern schemes, especially alongside natural textures like linen, rattan and pale wood. It suits a bedroom, living room, hallway or dining room, and the vertical lift of the arches gives a low or narrow space a little more height.

Use this arches wallpaper on a single feature wall or wrap a whole room for a fully calm, enveloping feel. The peel and stick and pre-pasted formats are moisture-resistant, so it's a lovely, understated choice for a bathroom or cloakroom too.

Colourways

Choose from six soft colourways, cream arches on a warm, textured ground:

Light Sage Green

A soft, dusty sage with cream linework, calm and grounded. At home in Japandi and organic modern spaces, and bedrooms with natural materials and muted tones.

Warm Beige

A soft, sandy beige with a gentle yellow warmth, lighter than it looks on screen. Works in farmhouse, coastal grandma and relaxed neutral rooms where you want warmth without colour.

Light Blue

A cool, hazy blue with cream, airy and considered. Lovely in Scandinavian-influenced spaces, calm living rooms, and bedrooms wanting gentle colour without anything bold.

Neutral

Two tones of warm neutral, barely there. The most versatile of the six, working across almost any style and sitting happily beside most paint colours.

Stone Grey

A warm grey-green with cream, grounded and quiet. Suits Japandi, organic modern and relaxed contemporary rooms with stone, linen or dark wood.

Dusty Pink

A warm, muted rose with cream, soft without being sweet. At home in a Japandi bedroom or a calm, pared-back room with neutral furnishings and warm accents.

This arches wallpaper is available in peel and stick, traditional non-pasted, and pre-pasted. All printed to order on PVC-free paper.

If the design is almost right but the shade isn't quite yours, every design can be recoloured for free. Send me your paint code and I'll adjust the artwork to match your room before it prints. Just use the custom request page.

Every design at Summer Skye Studio is drawn and developed by me, Sara. Original artwork, and all patterns are copyright Summer Skye Studio.

Wallpaper Types

Peel & Stick

No paste, no fuss. Made from 100% woven polyester fabric at 275gsm (370gsm including the peel-off liner), it has a soft, fabric-like feel and a matte woven texture. Self-adhesive, repositionable for up to 24 hours after hanging, and removes cleanly in one piece.

A good choice for renters, first-timers, and anyone who wants flexibility without sacrificing finish. Works in bathrooms and moderately humid spaces. Not suitable for heavily textured walls.

PVC-free, GreenGuard certified, printed with UV inks.

Traditional (Non-Pasted)

The classic option for a long-lasting, permanent finish. Non-woven fabric at 190gsm with a smooth matte surface. Apply paste to the wall, hang the panel, trim if needed.

A good choice for full room makeovers and anyone wanting a finish that's built to stay. Best on smooth, dry walls. Not recommended for bathrooms or humid spaces. Not suitable for heavily textured walls.

PVC-free, GreenGuard certified, printed with UV inks.

Pre-Pasted

The middle ground between traditional and peel and stick. You get a permanent finish without the paste. The adhesive is already on the paper, activated with a damp roller or sponge.

At 300gsm it has a fine embossed texture and a premium matte feel. Repositionable while the adhesive is still wet, and suitable for bathrooms and moderately humid spaces. Not suitable for heavily textured walls.

PVC-free, GreenGuard certified, printed with UV inks.

Measure your walls carefully

Colours and pattern flow depend on getting this right, so it's worth taking your time.

• Measure height from skirting board to ceiling, or wherever you want the wallpaper to end.
• Measure the width of each wall you plan to cover.
• Use the tallest height measurement across the whole project.
• Include doors, windows, and architectural features so the pattern runs correctly around them.
• Take several measurements along each wall. Ceilings and floors are often uneven.

Read the full guide here.

Order the right amount

• Multiply your wall area by the coverage per roll to estimate how many you need.
• Choose one roll size and stick with it throughout the project for consistent pattern matching.
• Round up and order all rolls at once. Same batch means the closest colour match across panels.
• Not sure? Just message me and I'll help you work it out.

Order a sample first

Screens and room lighting both affect how colours read. A sample is the simplest way to check colour, scale, and finish in your own space before committing.

Colour customisation

If the design is almost right but the colour isn't quite there, just ask. I can adjust the palette to match your paint colour, existing décor, or anything else you're working with.

Pattern scale

I can also adjust the scale of a pattern to suit your space, larger, smaller, or as shown. For more significant design edits, a small design fee may apply, but I'll always be upfront about that before anything is confirmed.

Either way, you'll receive a digital preview to approve before your order is placed. No surprises.

How to request

Use the customisation request form to send me your colour or scale preferences. I'll come back to you with a preview and confirm any costs if relevant. Once you're happy, we'll get your order processed.
