Style Notes
Toile, reimagined: how to use scenic prints in a modern home
Single-colour scenic wallpaper is having a moment – here is how to style it.
Toile wallpaper – single-colour vignettes of pastoral scenes – originated in 18th-century France. Its charm lies in storytelling and calm, monochrome rhythm.
Fresh colourways
Try toile in sage, terracotta or charcoal rather than the classic red or blue for a contemporary twist.
Pair with stripes and checks
The classic partner for toile is a ticking stripe or gingham in the same ink colour.
Not just for bedrooms
Toile looks wonderful in kitchens and boot rooms. See our original toile designs.
