Wallpaper - Art Noveau III

In our Art Nouveau III wallpaper, designed by Tanja Smedh, ornate historic symmetry meets a muted, earthy palette. The design pairs symmetrical floral motifs and flowing sinuous lines with central white blooms, framed by structured diamond shapes in soft sage green and grey tones. Inspired by classic Art Nouveau patterns and block-print aesthetics, the repeat balances decorative density with a calm, understated rhythm. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your specific wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

The balanced geometry and muted palette make this design remarkably versatile across different room layouts. In a dining room, we particularly like seeing it run along an uninterrupted feature wall where the rhythmic diamond structure creates an elegant backdrop behind a dining table and sideboard. Because the contrast between the sage green, grey, and white remains soft, the wallpaper also works beautifully wrapped across multiple walls in a living room without overwhelming the space. In rooms with standard ceiling heights, the vertical flow of the stylized stems and symmetrical arches helps draw the eye upward, giving the space an airy, considered feel.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this pattern with furnishings that respect its heritage roots while keeping the overall room fresh.

• Natural warm wood tones, such as mid-tone oak or vintage walnut dining furniture, bring out the earthy warmth in the sage background.
• Clean-lined upholstery in unbleached neutral fabrics helps keep the focus on the wallpaper's intricate line work without competing for attention.
• Subtle antique brass or brushed bronze lighting fixtures echo the Art Nouveau period character without feeling overly ornate.

Colour combinations

The pattern itself is built around muted sage green, charcoal-tinted grey line work, and soft off-white floral details. To complement the wallpaper on surrounding surfaces, we suggest continuing the quiet mood with chalky off-whites or soft greige on adjoining walls and ceiling moldings. If you want a richer, more enveloping feel, pulled-through sage green paint on doors, architraves, or lower wainscoting creates a tailored, cohesive look.
