The backdrop for the pretty magnolia print has an iridescent quality that will beautifully bounce light around a room. This thoughtful use of materials to masterfully work with light helps to balance the bold pattern, which can often make a space appear smaller making this perfect for even the most compact of rooms.
This elegant design is sure to give any room the wow factor, whether commanding attention as a feature wall or claiming back all four walls for full glory.

If you find pink too sweet, with fear not, you can still be on-trend with the latest wallpaper design by opting for an alternative colourway – such as the White Gold (above) or Sky (below).
The flowering magnolia plant is said to be associated with purity and dignity, giving this statement design a lovely additional story.
The design is a bold floral move on from Graham & Brown's 2017 wallpaper of the year, the more contemporary 'Reflections' in Rose Gold' design . Let's remind ourselves...
