Queen Square Wallpapers wallpaper collection Morris & Co

Queen Square wallpaper by Morris & Co with dense botanical patterns

Queen Square wallpaper fills a room with plants, from blackthorn blossom to trailing willow leaves. Every design in this Morris & Co collection covers the wall in an all-over repeat of stylized flowers, stems and foliage. The patterns share that density. They part ways in color and drawing. Blackthorn is dark and multicolored with flat outlined shapes, Willow Bough has shaded leaves that read almost painted, and Poppy is pure linework in charcoal on pale gray. Some walls settle into a calm rhythm, while others keep your eye moving and finding a new bud or bird each time you look.

Designs in the Morris & Co Queen Square wallpaper collection

Blackthorn wallpaper sets cream blossoms, red and yellow flowers and red checkered fritillary bells among blue-gray and green leaves on a dark navy ground, mirrored in small tree shapes. In the bathroom shown, it sits behind a teal chest of drawers with a marble basin. Willow Bough wallpaper, dating from 1887, sticks to one plant. Emerald and mid-green leaves on thin brown stems trail diagonally across a light aqua ground with no center point. Poppy wallpaper, first printed in 1881, draws large poppy heads, seed pods and serrated leaves in fine charcoal lines on pale gray-beige. Sunflower wallpaper is based on an original hand-cut block from 1879 and pairs sunflowers with grape clusters and slender foliage. Bird & Anemone wallpaper, from 1882, shows thrushes in a vertical weave of flowers and leaves in olive and turquoise.

Placing Queen Square wallpaper in your home

Dark, multicolored Blackthorn closes a small room or bathroom around you. Willow Bough keeps a landing or hallway light and full of movement. Poppy, in a single tone, holds up on small surfaces such as the back of a bookcase. The designs also mix well. In the photo, a sofa covered in Willow Bough fabric sits beside a cabinet lined with Poppy.
