If there’s one design move that instantly transforms a room, it’s the feature wall. Bold, eye-catching, and full of personality, a statement wall can elevate even the simplest of spaces. In 2025, feature walls are all about creativity, texture, and fearless pattern choices. Here’s our round-up of fresh ideas, with examples from our own wallpaper collections to help you get started.

1. Go Tropical for a Burst of Energy 🌴

Tropical wallpaper is perfect if you want to bring a sense of fun, vibrancy, and escapism into your home. Think oversized palm leaves, rich greens, and exotic blooms — it’s a look that instantly makes a room feel alive.

2. Make a Bold Statement with Geometric Prints ✨

Geometric wallpaper has a modern, chic vibe that’s ideal for feature walls. Strong lines, repeating shapes, and a mix of metallics or bold colours create depth and drama. It’s a brilliant choice for contemporary living rooms, dining spaces, or even stylish home offices.

3. Add Warmth & Texture with Wood Panel Effects 🌲

Wood panel wallpapers are trending in 2025 for their ability to add instant warmth and texture without the expense (or mess) of real panelling. From rustic timber effects to sleek painted panelling, this style is perfect for cosy living rooms, stylish hallways, or as a backdrop in bedrooms.

4. Tips for Choosing the Right Feature Wall

• Pick the right wall: Usually the wall behind the sofa, bed, or fireplace works best.

• Balance with neutrals: Let your feature wall do the talking — keep surrounding walls more subtle.

• Layer with accessories: Cushions, throws, and artwork can help tie the feature wall into the rest of the room.
