Colours of Morris wallpaper collection Morris & Co

Colours of Morris wallpaper by Morris & Co with flowers, branches and fruit

Colours of Morris wallpaper gathers familiar Morris & Co patterns into one collection, with flowers, branches and fruit running across the whole wall. Every motif is drawn flat and stylized, with outlined forms that repeat without a break. What sets the designs apart is scale and direction. One pattern mirrors itself in large symmetrical rows, another climbs diagonally in a fine net of leaves, and a third flows across the surface. Grounds range from dark brown to pale beige and cream, so you can pick a wall that sits back or one that holds the room.
