Dark & Moody Stripes Wallpaper for Nurseries & Kids’ Rooms
Stripes are the tailoring of the wallpaper world – from slim pinstripes to broad Regency bands. They add height, order and a crisp finish.
Children's rooms suit gentle, playful prints. Our inks are water-based and our papers are low-VOC, so they are a lovely choice for nurseries.
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 21 original designs includes candy stripe, dot stripe, regency stripe, ticking stripe, wiggle stripe. Highlights from the edit include Brook Candy Stripe, Rowan Dot Stripe, Milner Candy Stripe.
Shown: Brook Candy Stripe Wallpaper in Midnight Navy.

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.
- Pick a design with a sophisticated palette that can grow with your child.
- Stripes are forgiving to hang in hallways and staircases and pair easily with florals in adjoining rooms.
