Art Deco Wallpaper

Art deco wallpaper is a printed wall covering with bold geometry, fan motifs, and sunburst patterns from the 1920s style.

This range covers gold and brass detail, deep emerald and navy grounds, textured fan prints, and softer pastel deco designs.

It suits dining rooms, lounges, and hallways in period flats and 1930s semis across the UK.

The prints pair well with velvet sofas, marble side tables, and brass picture lights.

Art Deco Wallpaper for Period British Homes

The 1920s and 1930s shaped many British city homes, and 1920s wallpaper design still resonates strongly with buyers today. Tall ceilings, sash windows, and original fireplaces provide a perfect base. A deco print picks up that history naturally. The wall reads true to the home without any forced styling.

Our customers in London and Manchester often choose deeper grounds for south-facing rooms. Save softer pastels and cream-ground prints for north-facing snugs and smaller rooms in Birmingham and Leeds.

What Does Art Deco Wallpaper Include?

Art deco wallpaper typically features these design families:

• Fan and sunburst motifs in gold or brass
• Bold geometric lines and chevrons
• Rich dark grounds in emerald, navy, and black
• Metallic foil detail for evening depth
• Softer pastel versions in cream, blush, and sage

Vintage-Inspired Geometric Prints in 1930s Semis

1930s semis carry vintage-inspired geometric wallpaper naturally. The bay window lounge, the dining room, and the hallway all work. Chevron wallpaper and bold fan prints lift the whole ground floor without a full renovation.

Geometric Wall Murals and Decor Pairing Guide

Velvet sofas in emerald, burgundy, or navy hold their own against a metallic geometric wall mural. Gold wallpaper tones in deep brass or antique ochre sit beautifully beside dark wood and warm plaster. A marble or stone coffee table adds calm, and brass picture lights tie the metals together. 

The Hollywood Regency wallpaper aesthetic, bold print on one wall paired with rich upholstery and metallic hardware, translates naturally into British dining rooms and lounges. It is a confident look that rewards restraint elsewhere in the room. 

Curtains in plain heavy linen finish the room. Skip patterned curtains on the same wall plane. Two patterns rarely earn their place at once.

Dark Wood and Brass Companion Pieces

A walnut sideboard with brass handles is the easy companion piece. It holds the deco mood without competing with the print. This pairing works especially well in Edinburgh and Bristol dining rooms. 

Where to Hang a Deco Mural in Your Home

If you are choosing dining room wallpaper, the wall behind the table is the strongest first pick. The lounge wall behind the sofa is next. Both suit a bold feature wall wallpaper centrepiece that anchors the whole room. In a hallway, the long wall opposite the front door draws the eye in well. 

Avoid walls with picture rails, switches, and sockets cluttering the surface. Geometry needs clean space to read well.

Art Deco Bedroom Wallpaper Behind the Headboard

Art deco bedroom wallpaper works best on the wall directly behind the headboard. Period flats in Glasgow and Liverpool often have one strong wall that carries the whole deco mood without overwhelming the room. A drinks cabinet wall or pantry alcove also suits a smaller metallic accent.

Fitting, Removable Options, and Cleaning

This range comes in two finishes. Paste-the-wall paper suits long-term homes. The self-adhesive peel and stick option suits renters and quick refreshes. Both use water-based inks with a matt low-sheen finish. The metallic detail uses light foil layers, not heavy coatings.

British walls need prep. Wipe down, fill any holes, and let new plaster cure four weeks before fitting. Our team has produced and shipped these prints to homes in Newcastle and across the UK, and we always recommend a clean, dry surface for the best result.

Art Deco Bathroom Wallpaper and Wet-Room Advice

Art deco bathroom wallpaper works well in a downstairs loo or a guest bathroom. Fit the print on a wall away from direct shower spray. Run an extractor fan during showers. The matt finish wipes clean. Our removable wallpaper range is the ideal choice here if you rent or want the freedom to refresh without replastering.

When UK Homes Call for a Deco Refresh

Renovations of 1930s semis bring a statement dining room. Our 1930s decorating ideas guide covers room-by-room styling for period homes. Christmas hosting in London or Leeds is another trigger. Empty-nesters refreshing the lounge after the kids leave form another wave. 

Autumn and winter bring the busiest deco moments. The glamour wallpaper aesthetic suits long British evenings and lamp light better than any other style. A customisable art deco mural lets you choose the scale and ground colour for your specific wall, delivering the luxury wallpaper UK look without extensive renovation. 

New Builds and First Homes

First-time buyers in Manchester and Birmingham often pick deco prints for the dining room. The style adds instant character to new-build rooms without heavy renovation.
