ARTIST'S STRIPE Wallpaper - Stratus & Carex

The painterly quality of the stripes really comes through once it's up—they don't look printed flat, but like someone carefully brushed them on. The warm brown against that soft blue is calming without being boring, and my hallway feels cozier already.

The soft blue and warm brown together make the room feel calm but not boring, and the hand-painted effect prevents it from looking too stiff or formal. I actually caught myself running my fingers along the wall to feel if there was any texture from the brushstrokes.

The soft blue background with those warm brown lines instantly made my hallway feel cozier. The painterly irregularity of the stripes is exactly what I wanted for a relaxed, organic look.
