Black Wallpaper

Our collection of black wallpaper offers a bold statement for any interior. You will find a range of styles, from contemporary damask to modern floral prints, perfect for creating a feature wall. Each mural is printed to the exact size of your wall for a seamless result with minimal waste. If you are unsure about a design, you can always order a sample first to see the colours and scale in your own home before you commit to a full mural.

Pairing Black Wallpaper with Your Decor

Black is a versatile and grounding colour that works well with a wide spectrum of palettes. For a high-contrast, modern look, pair a matt black wallpaper with crisp white woodwork and metallic accents in gold, brass or chrome. To create a warmer, more classic atmosphere, consider complementary colours like deep greens, rich burgundies or earthy tones. Lighter woods such as oak or ash can brighten the room, while darker woods like walnut will add to the deep, enveloping feel of the space.

The style of your chosen design will also guide your decor choices. A design like our Black Damask Mural suits classic or gothic interiors with substantial furniture, whereas a bold black and gold tiger print is a natural fit for a contemporary or eclectic room. Consider the existing elements in your space and choose a design that harmonises with your overall aesthetic.

Choosing the Right Scale for Your Room

The scale of the pattern is a key consideration when selecting a black print wallpaper. For smaller rooms or walls with architectural features like windows and doors, a smaller, more intricate pattern can add detail without overwhelming the space. In larger rooms with high ceilings, a large-scale mural, such as a dramatic floral design, can create a significant visual impact and become the room's focal point. Our murals are made to measure, which means the design is scaled to fit your wall's specific dimensions perfectly.

To visualise how a pattern will look on your wall, we recommend ordering a wallpaper sample. This allows you to see the true scale of the motif and the print quality in your home's lighting. You can also use our online wall measuring calculator to input your dimensions, which are required to be in inches first, then centimetres (cm), ensuring your final mural is a perfect fit.

Black Wallpaper: your questions

Is black wallpaper a good idea for a small room?

Yes, it can be very effective. A dark wall can make a small room feel more intimate and distinguished. To keep the space from feeling too enclosed, balance a black feature wall with lighter colours on the other walls and ceiling, and use mirrors and good lighting to reflect light.

Can I use black wallpaper in a bathroom?

We offer three PVC-free paper types, including a Peel and Stick option.

How much black wallpaper do I need for my walls?

You do not need to calculate rolls. All our murals are printed to the exact size of your wall. Simply provide your wall's height and width, and we will produce a set of panels for a perfect fit. For help, see our guide on how to measure for wallpaper.

What colours go with black and gold wallpaper?

Black and gold wallpaper pairs well with neutral colours like cream, beige, and grey, which allow the design to stand out. For a more dramatic effect, consider pairing it with deep jewel tones such as emerald green, sapphire blue, or ruby red to complement the richness of the gold.
