Dark & Moody Stripes Wallpaper for Bedrooms
Stripes are the tailoring of the wallpaper world – from slim pinstripes to broad Regency bands. They add height, order and a crisp finish.
Bedrooms are the perfect place to experiment because they are private and lived in mostly at night. A papered wall behind the bed acts like an oversized headboard.
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 24 original designs includes candy stripe, dot stripe, regency stripe, ticking stripe, wiggle stripe. Highlights from the edit include Vickers Ticking Stripe, Hammond Ticking Stripe, Brook Candy Stripe.

Styling tips
- Vertical stripes visually raise low ceilings; choose a stripe colour that matches your skirting or trim for a seamless look.
- Use warm lamps rather than overhead light to make dark walls glow.
- Calming palettes and organic patterns help bedrooms feel restful.
- Stripes are forgiving to hang in hallways and staircases and pair easily with florals in adjoining rooms.
How much will I need?
A typical bedroom wall of about 3.6 m wide × 2.4 m high needs 7 drops. With a 53 cm pattern repeat you get 3 drops per 10 m roll, so you would order 3 rolls – from £132.60 on Standard paper to £217.62 on Luxe. Use the calculator on any product page for your exact walls.
