Wallpaper Inn: Trending Walls

Take a look at what will be trending on walls in 2023.

With over 50 years of experience in the business, Wallpaper Inn firmly has its finger on the pulse of local and international luxury wallpaper and home decor trends.

Here, the team shares their top wallpaper trends for 2023.

Aloha Tropical Multicolour

Bold, colourful prints

Busy, colour-rich wallpapers are a huge hit with maximalist decorators in 2023. These wallpapers have the power to instantly transform a space, injecting it with colour and energy. To pull this off, bigger and bolder is definitely better.

Try: Adilah Dark Wallpaper, Ateles Charcoal Wallpaper or Aloha Tropical Multicolour

Adilah Dark Wallpaper

Simple stripes

Cream on cream

A perennial classic, 2023 will yet again see a resurgence in striped wallpaper – it’s perfect for adding subtle interest, can be installed horizontally or vertically and can be used to create a contemporary or more traditional look.

Try: Black and White Pin Stripe, Clara Stripe Flock Black or Cream on Cream Stripe.

Clara Stripe Flock

Subdued tones and designs

Oriental Garden Pearlescent White Wallpaper

In contrast to bold, maximalist prints, subdued tones and designs are trending on the other side of the interior-design spectrum.

Muted colours and patterns are a great way to subtly add neutral colour and visual interest to a space without overpowering the rest of the design.

Oriental Blossom Blush Wallpaper

Try: Oriental Garden Pearlescent White Wallpaper, Oriental Blossom Blush Wallpaper or Josette White Wallpaper.

Josette White Wallpaper

Black and White

narrow black stripe

A prominent trend in the new year will be black and white, from fashion to walls. The combo works so well because it can be visually interesting and act as a neutral against which to style other elements at the same time.

Try: Narrow Black Stripe, Maze Black or Linear Visage Black and White Wallpaper.

Linear Visage Black

White Wallpaper

Small Prints

Little Vines Hedgerow Wallpaper

Another fun trend to look out for is small-scale patterned designs. Not only does a small print create a sense of luxury in a room but it can be used on walls and ceilings for a contemporary cocooning effect.
