Wallpaper is a wonderful way to inject personality into a room. Here is a selection of stunning kitchens and dining rooms, all beautifully papered with Divine Savages, proving there is no need to shy away from colour and pattern in more traditionally functional spaces.
 


1 |   METALLIC POPS

Let the wallpaper shine by picking out its core colour of the wallpaper for the painted cabinetry & trimwork. The closer the colour match, the stronger the impact and the metallic pattern will pop. Bonus points for matching the metals of hardware and kitchen fixtures like the brass tap and sconces.

2 |   TELL A STORY

This playful print features mischievous felines stalking unsuspecting budgies - a wallpaper inspired by designer Tom's love of the classic chase scenes in early animation. Affectionately named Bye Bye Birdie! it's the very essence of the words divine and savage.  Photo Credit: @aiden.t_interiordesign

3 |   DECO ON THE CEILING

Kitchens often have limited wall space due to cabinets, so if you need to get your pattern fix in, the ceiling is the way to go. Vibrant Art Deco influenced wallpaper adds a sultry decadence to complement the green cabinets. Photo Credit: @arianna_danielson

4 |   ONE WALL WONDER

With just one wall to decorate in this kitchen, it's the perfect place to use wallpaper. The large pattern has the power to transform the whole room, but with limited space to cover, it comes at a fraction of the cost.

6 |   NEUTRAL BUT MAKE IT BLUE 

Our Crane Fonda wallpaper in Charcoal boasts intricate dark grey illustrations, but instead of using this dark tone as an accent, this designer has opted for a cool, neutral slate blue. All doors, windows, trim and even the fireplace are united together with this new-neutral, which frames the wallpaper pattern for a cohesive backdrop. Photo Credit: @homedwelling | Design by @palmandprep

7 |   THINK PINK  

Pink isn't one of the core kitchen colours, but it's working on multiple surfaces here...the patterned wallpaper with matching upholstered chairs and a quiet pillow too.
