If there’s one design element making a serious comeback in 2025, it’s wallpaper. As the director of Eurowalls, Australia’s favourite online wallpaper retailer since 2008, we’re seeing a huge shift towards personalising your space with statement walls. This year, it’s all about textured surfaces, natural textures, and artistic expressions that push the boundaries of how (and where!) wallpaper is used. Whether you’re refreshing a single room or reimagining an entire space, these are the seven standout wallpaper trends that are flying out the door right now.

1. Textured Elegance

In 2025, wallpaper is no longer just about visuals – it’s about the feel. Textured wallpapers made from materials such as grasscloth, linen, and embossed detailing are on the rise, adding warmth and depth to any project. These natural, tactile finishes make an impact like no other, and you might even catch dinner guests feeling the wall – they’re a true sensory experience. The biggest trend in texture? Call it a seventies revival, but cork wallpaper is back – as seen in the latest Fenton & Fenton ‘El Rancho’ campaign featuring eurowalls CH22 – Metallic Copper Cork as the backdrop, and as featured in celebrity homes in Vogue Living.

2. Moody Botanicals

Botanical prints are here to stay in 2025, with oversized floral motifs, lush tropical prints, and organic silhouettes dominating wallpaper choices. This year however, the trend is towards more ‘moody’ florals. Think darker, deeper and more dramatic designs in burnt mustard and brown tones, and moody murals. Renovators are looking to bring the outdoors in, embracing nature-inspired patterns that blur the lines between indoor and outdoor living.

3. Art-Inspired Large-Scale Murals

Customisation is key in 2025, with made-to-measure murals and large-scale art prints transforming walls into personalised masterpieces. Whether inspired by abstract art, watercolours, or traditional scenes, murals give interiors a gallery-like atmosphere and allow for ultimate self-expression. Unlike a wallpaper pattern that repeats the same print per roll, murals are ‘art on the wall’ that feature one large motif, making for a dramatic focal point in your space.

4. Monochrome & Minimalist Luxe

We’re seeing a lot of textured neutral linen on the walls this year. For those seeking timeless elegance, monochrome and tonal wallpapers in muted neutrals, soft greys, and warm taupes are redefining minimalist interiors in a way that feels simultaneously classic and modern. This trend pairs perfectly with textural contrast, creating subtle depth while maintaining a sense of calm and understated luxury.

5. ’70s Glam Meets Modern Maximalism

The ’70s are back, and with them come bold geometrics, rich earth tones, and metallic accents. Wallpaper is the perfect medium to explore this nostalgic yet elevated look. We’re seeing a fusion of retro-inspired prints with contemporary palettes, bringing vintage glamour into modern interiors in a curated way. See also: the cork trend above – nothing screams ’70s more than rustic, warm toned cork texture on the wall.

6. Metallic & High-Gloss Finishes

Reflective surfaces are having a moment, with metallic-infused wallpapers adding dimension and luminosity to spaces. From gold-leaf effects to pearlescent sheens, these finishes create an interplay of light and texture, making rooms feel opulent yet contemporary, and they also help to open up smaller spaces. We are seeing a huge shift towards metallics this year, from flecks to florals.

7. Unexpected Placement

Whether it’s wallpaper just on the ceiling, as an art-like vignette, or under an archway, creative wallpaper placement is a global trend that is seeping into Australian interiors . We’re now even seeing 2-3 wallpapers bravely combined in the same room to create a space that’s truly unique. Dip your toe in with this trend by putting wallpaper inside the back of a cupboard or wardrobe, or by putting a whimsical kids’ print on the ceiling as a focal point and leaving the walls bare.
