Geo forms are everywhere in today’s design realm. From textile patterns to objets d’art, geo style is a top modern trend. No wonder the world of wallpaper includes so many geo designs! Some are ultra minimal, while others channel a more ornamental past. ferm LIVING’s Lines Wallpaper is inspired by Art Deco motifs. Golden lines shine against a deep blue background. Since the pattern is also available in Grey, Mint, Off-white, Cashmere and Graphite, there is ample opportunity to snag just the right color for your space.

Nature’s Bounty

One of today’s top wallpaper trends is the prevalence of plant and animal motifs. Sometimes both plants and animals make an appearance on the same wallpaper pattern! Nature’s bounty is showcased in all of its glory, with motifs that range from the classic to the modern. How stunning is this Boreas Teal Wallpaper from Graham & Brown?! An undeniably modern take on branchy style, Boreas features a metallic pattern on a textured teal background. Note that this wallpaper can also be ordered in Soft Gray, Deep Gray, Midnight and Natural:

It’s as much about movement as it is about the fish with Graham & Brown’s Flow Black Wallpaper. The combination of black and peachy pink is striking, and there’s something about this wallpaper that makes it picture-perfect for the powder room. If you love the pattern but are looking for a more subtle palette, check out Flow in Mist.

For another take on sea life against a black backdrop, give CB2’s Jellyfish Black Wallpaper a good look. Perfect for powder rooms or any room in need of a dreamy underwater motif, this pattern includes a range of bright hues, from peach and orange to light and dark blues. For a more subtle approach, check out a variation in Ivory.

Decadence is the name of the game with Allure from Graham & Brown. Jewel tones reign, and there is plenty of opportunity for them to pop against the pattern’s matte black background. Moody, contemplative and opulent are three words that accurately describe this wallpaper featuring hand-painted florals.

Also from Graham & Brown is Jardin Gray. Shades of teal, yellow and pink stand out against the gray tones of this garden-themed wallpaper. If you’re a fan of birds, butterflies and flowers, you’ll appreciate the way this pattern uses color to put a modern spin on timeless motifs. Note that Jardin Gray comes in three additional background variations: magenta, teal and black.

Amazing things happen when plants and animals combine in a wallpaper pattern. Urban Outfitters’ Chillin’ Cheetahs Removable Wallpaper channels elements of the desert, while also including plenty of plant imagery. A black background brings everything to life:

Dense vegetation in deep green graces CB2’s Kimolia Paradise Green Wallpaper. The pattern is big on botanical style, so don’t be afraid to get lost in this posh forest. Also available in “Ocean Black“, which combines shades of grey, white and black.

Tropicana

This is not your grandmother’s tropical wallpaper, folks (although we’re sure your grandmother’s tropical wallpaper is pretty fabulous). A new take on tropical motifs is gaining popularity in the realm of wallpaper, which mirrors the larger trend of tropical motifs in today’s design world. We begin with the fun and breezy approach of ferm LIVING’s Fruiticana. Ideal for kids’ rooms, this patterns takes mini imagery to a new level. Outrageous colors and bold forms are not on display here…which makes this wallpaper very versatile. Call it understated whimsy at its finest!

If you ARE looking for bold and vibrant, Urban Outfitters’ Orange + Kiwi Removable Wallpaper just might catch your eye. A vivid fruit motif takes center stage, along with an ultra-colorful palette:

Anthropologie’s Pina Sola Wallpaper is like a pineapple party for your wall! A background in the softest of pinks and fruit-fabulous imagery bring together two of today’s top trends: pink tones and pineapple motifs. Pina Sola works particularly well in the kitchen.

Also from Anthropologie, this Morocco Palm Wallpaper is tropical and elegant at the same time. Available in four different color variations, the pattern is showcased below in the green motif, which has the power to create a crisp, fresh and inviting backdrop in the room of your choice:

Celestial Magic

Moons, stars, galaxies, the universe! We first featured the celestial trend back in 2015 , and these dreamy, heavenly motifs are still going strong. ferm LIVING’s Moon Wallpaper takes its inspiration from outer space. Designed with kids’ rooms in mind, the pattern will ignite the imagination as a deep palette gently sets a magical tone:

If you love the idea of celestial flair but you’re looking for a less permanent option, check out Urban Outfitters’ Celestial Removable Wallpaper. Stick-on paper does the trick, and a pattern of moons and stars brings plenty of dreamy whimsy to your space:

  • 1110 apartment

    Measuring just 62m2, the apartment is located in a new building in Hanoi. Every unit of this building is small and is designed for young families. The original plan contains two bedrooms with compressed functions. The whole space is divided into small rooms. The renovated concept is to break the stifling sensation of closed rooms to create a new space where functions intertwine softly, flexibly and the natural light can enter the deepest corners. In the new design, a bedroom is removed to expand living space. A bathroom is converted into the washing room and storage. The balcony became a green space, connecting living space and bedroom. Finishing materials and furniture aim for simplicity, natural and rustication. Furniture are made to serve their very purposes, and not to put pressure on the space. Many old wooden parts have been reconfigured into two tables. Glass is used to show the structure of the tables and to avoid casting shadows on the wooden floor. The indigo plywood cabinet and the yellow cement wall cover the kitchen and are the highlight of the living space. With a small area, good quality of life can be achieved just by balancing the functions in a harmonious way; accepting to abandon some needs and to change our lifestyle.

  • Birch Le Collaboration House

    Hygge Supply completed this ultimate kit home in June 2019 and began offering overnight stays to potential clients and design enthusiasts on July 1. Designed and built with the intention of being an experiential showroom for potential clients, Hygge Supply founder and designer, Kelly Sean Karcher, envisioned the home to incorporate those materials and products that fell in line both aesthetically and ethically with principles of the Hygge Supply brand. “I wanted this home to highlight the best of Hygge Supply. That included visually the design of the home, practically with the simplicity of the systems used to construct the home, and lastly, with the products and materials we used in the home. We wanted to partner with companies who shared not only a similar design philosophy, but that also were environmentally responsible and sustainable,” Karcher stated. Karcher and team partnered with several different companies to bring the home to life. On the exterior, Hygge Supply partnered with Thermory for the responsibly sourced, chemical-free spruce cladding. Hygge also used Marvin for all windows and doors in the home, which are produced in the US using environmentally friendly manufacturing processes. On the interior, Hygge partnered with sustainable architectural material distributor, Cara Green, to source solid surface Durat countertops, which are made from 30-50% recycled hard plastics and are 100% recyclable. Low-VOC C2 Luxe paint was used throughout the home. All cabinets, vanities, and kitchen islands are designed and produced by Hygge Supply, using no-VOC powder coat finishes. Hygge Supply partnered exclusively with Rove Concepts for the interior furnishings. With a focus on modern contemporary and Nordic designs, Rove Concepts aligned with the Scandinavian inspiration that drove Karcher to develop Hygge Supply. “I was drawn to the clean lines and neutral tones of Rove Concepts. The design of the furniture felt like it could be a natural extension of the home,” Karcher said. “At Hygge Supply, we believe in comfortable minimalism and Rove Concepts really offered that to us in statement pieces that were warm and inviting and could stand on their own.” Hygge Supply also partnered with Fermob to furnish the exterior, creating an inviting and elegant outdoor living and dining area in the large covered porch. Followers of the company can book a visit to the 3 bedroom (there is a bunk space), 2.5 bathroom house managed by the short-term rental arm of the company Hygge Stay.
