Textured wallpaper brings depth, warmth, and tactile richness to interior spaces without the visual complexity of pattern. Where floral, botanical, and geometric wallpaper create interest through motif and color, textured wallpaper creates interest through surface — the visual impression of woven fibers, natural materials, plaster, stone, or fabric. The result is wallpaper that adds character and warmth to a room while remaining versatile, restrained, and easy to live with.
This guide covers everything you need to know about textured wallpaper — the different styles, how to choose the right one, and which rooms work best. Browse our Textured Wallpaper collection and Warm & Organic collection to explore the range.
Types of Textured Wallpaper
Grasscloth-Look Wallpaper
Grasscloth-look wallpaper mimics the woven texture of natural grasscloth — one of the most popular natural wall coverings — in a peel-and-stick format. The characteristic horizontal weave pattern creates a warm, organic surface that adds depth and natural character to any room. These are among the most popular textured wallpaper styles. Browse our Textured Wallpaper collection.
Linen and Fabric-Look Wallpaper
Wallpaper that mimics the texture of linen, canvas, or woven fabric creates a soft, tactile surface that feels warm and natural. These suit bedrooms, living rooms, and home offices where you want warmth and texture without strong pattern.
Plaster and Limewash Wallpaper
Wallpaper that mimics the organic, irregular surface of plaster or limewash creates a warm, artisanal quality. These feel contemporary and are particularly popular in living rooms and bedrooms where you want a natural, handcrafted aesthetic. Browse our Warm & Organic collection.
Stone and Concrete Wallpaper
Wallpaper that mimics the surface of stone, concrete, or raw plaster creates a cool, industrial-inspired texture. These suit contemporary and industrial-style interiors, working well in home offices, living rooms, and kitchens.
Wood Grain Wallpaper
Wallpaper that mimics the grain and texture of wood creates a warm, natural surface without the cost or complexity of real wood paneling. These suit living rooms, bedrooms, and home offices where you want natural warmth.
