Dark & Moody Art Deco Wallpaper for Hallways
Art Deco design, born in 1920s Paris, celebrates symmetry, fans, sunbursts and stepped forms. It adds instant glamour, especially in metallic-look tones.
The hallway makes the first impression of your home. Pattern disguises scuffs and adds interest to a space you pass through many times a day.
Dark and moody wallpaper makes rooms feel cocooning and dramatic, and paradoxically can make small rooms feel larger as the corners recede.
Our edit of 32 original designs includes cocktail scallop, deco fan, palais fan, radiant sunburst, riviera shell, scallop shell and more. Highlights from the edit include Arlington Skyline Ziggurat, Lytes Radiant Sunburst, Calloway Palais Fan.

Shown: Arlington Skyline Ziggurat Wallpaper in Gatsby Black.

Styling tips
- Combine with velvet, brass, smoked glass and curved furniture for a full Jazz Age mood.
- Use warm lamps rather than overhead light to make dark walls glow.
- Choose our scrubbable Premium paper for high-traffic areas.
- Deco fans and shells are superb in dining rooms and cloakrooms where a little drama goes a long way.
How much will I need?
A typical hallway wall of about 5.0 m wide × 2.5 m high needs 10 drops. With a 53 cm pattern repeat you get 3 drops per 10 m roll, so you would order 4 rolls – from £176.80 on Standard paper to £290.16 on Luxe. Use the calculator on any product page for your exact walls.
Make it your own
Every design in this edit can be recoloured, rescaled and previewed on a photo of your own wall in Design Your Own, then printed made-to-measure.
