Maximalist Wallpaper for Bedrooms
For a maximalist bedroom, use chinoiserie, animal print, abstract wallpaper – we have 115 designs suggested for bedrooms. Hold a busy scheme together with one repeated accent colour. Calming palettes and organic patterns help bedrooms feel restful.
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.

Questions & answers
How do I create a maximalist bedroom?
More is more: bold colour, big repeats and confident pattern on every surface. Try papering the ceiling as well as the walls in a small room. Gallery walls work over large-scale pattern if frames are bold.
How many rolls do I need?
A typical 3.6 × 2.4 m wall needs 3 rolls at a 53 cm repeat.
