How to Choose the Perfect Print
At House of Hackney, we’ve always believed that your home is your sanctuary. We’re here to reassure you that
transforming any space into your own personal oasis is easier than you might think.
Our sustainable wallpaper is designed for each and every room in the home. We see it as an opportunity to
completely transform any space; imbuing it with beauty and your personality. Follow these simple steps to
create your very own wonder walls.
MEET YOUR MUSE
When it’s time to pick your print, we encourage you to start with heart. Select the design that sparks an emotional response - after all, you’ll be looking at it every day! In our House, we always say ‘live with what you love’.
IDENTIFY YOUR SPACE
Which room would you like to wallpaper? Consider the size and function of the space, as well as the desired mood you are looking to conjure. For example, while bold, psychedelic designs work well in the living room, prints that are a little more serene - think nature-inspired motifs in tranquil colour palettes - are best for the bedroom and bathroom.
BE INSPIRED
Gravitating towards a particular print style? Now immerse yourself in inspiration. See how others have interpreted your chosen design in their own homes. Simply visit our inspiration gallery to see our prints in action. From bedrooms filled with flourishing florals, to fantasy-filled hallways, each and every image is sure to ignite your imagination.

LET THERE BE LIGHT
It’s important to consider the light levels and orientation of your chosen room, as this will help determine your captivating colour palette. Top tip: Avoid introducing too many cooler hues into a north-facing room, opt for warmer tones to soften the light and elevate the ambience.
TURN BACK TIME
When coating a traditional home’s walls with wonder we encourage you to be inspired by its unique attributes. Immerse yourself in the rich past of your own personal sanctuary by referencing it in your chosen print. For example, our iconic William Morris inspired ‘ARTEMIS’ would bloom to new heights in an Arts & Crafts home.
HARMONIZE COLOUR HUES
If layering a number of prints throughout your scheme, remember it’s all about balance. Stick to a cohesive colour palette, introducing shades of paint that complement your chosen wallpaper design to ensure perfect harmony.

PULL IT TOGETHER
If your scheme is feeling a little fragmented, choose a print that will help pull it all together. Go wild and use an animal print as a neutral. Top tip: Integrate WILDCARD into your print palette; the ‘Butterscotch’ shade will work with almost any colour. The organic repeat in the print’s pattern will also complement everything from geometric stripes to painterly florals.
LAYER FANTASTICAL FLAIR
Though you’re at the start of your wallpaper journey, it’s important to consider those finishing touches. Master the art of layering. Style your wallpaper with paintings and photographs that project your personality, don’t be afraid to hang those statement pieces that really anchor the room.
