Wallpaper book club – Albany Satori
Above: Imperial Gardens Mural
This is one of the wallpaperdirect team’s favourites in the Satori collection, a gorgeous mural which is a reinterpretation of traditional chinoiserie, featuring a delicate tapestry of hand-painted peonies, blossoms, and twisting vines interwoven with vibrant birds and butterflies against a soft, muted pink background. The intricate botanical detailing and rich colour palette bring sophistication and elegance, making it an ideal choice for statement walls in dining rooms, formal sitting areas, or boutique-hotel-inspired bedrooms. Paired with dark, carved wooden furniture and classic ceramic accents, as seen in this styling, the mural has a contemporary opulence, offering a refined backdrop for curated interiors. The mural can repeat left to right if wider widths are required. It is supplied as three lengths on a 70cm wide roll with marked cut lines and is available in three colourways.
Above: Ariara
This elegant wallpaper features an intricate palm trellis design set against a rich green background and has vintage elegance with a tropical twist. The detailing and structured repeat pattern would work well in both maximalist and heritage-inspired interiors. For an eclectic aesthetic, pair the deep green or maroon versions with antique brass accents, distressed wood, and jewel-toned velvet furnishings. Alternatively, the lighter orange or blue-on-taupe colourways could create a softer, sun-drenched effect when styled with rattan furniture and linen textiles, perfect for a contemporary take on early travel-inspired interior design.
Above: Jal Mahal
Jal Mahal wallpaper transforms this space into a storybook scene of regal grandeur. Inspired by the tranquil landscapes of Rajasthan’s famed Water Palace, the design brings a touch of surrealism to the room, where tropical foliage, classical architecture, and lavishly adorned giraffes, tigers, lions, and elephants create a fantasy scene. The intricate detailing nods to traditional toile with a distinctly Asian twist and a richly layered take on global eclecticism.
Above: Saranda
With rich teal and green hues on a soft gold metallic backdrop, this stunning wallpaper brings a luxurious, contemporary feel to any space. The shimmering gold ground catches the light beautifully, adding depth and warmth and is perfect for a statement wall in a living room or bedroom. We love seeing it styled here in a dining area alongside dark wood furniture and ambient lighting. We also think it would look great in a hallway to create an inviting, opulent entrance that sets the tone for the rest of your home.
Above: Cardamom Mountains Mural
This specatacular mural is inspired by. the lush, untamed beauty of Cambodia’s Cardamom Mountains. Painterly trees heavy with fruit and flowers are set in a paradise teeming with life where tigers and elephants wander, and deer drink from trickling streams. In this room, the mural’s sytlish impact is balanced with soft, neutral furnishings and natural textures. Ideal for creating a dreamy jungle backdrop, the design seamlessly repeats side-to-side, enabling the creation of an immersive, panoramic scene. Supplied in three 70cm-wide panels with clear cut lines, it offers both flexibility and easy installation.
Above: Hana
Hana blends classic chinoiserie influences with a soft colour palette, creating a design that is both timeless and romantic. Full-flowering blooms, exotic birds and over-sized butterflies frame painterly scenes of traditional pagodas, creating a sense of Victorian travel nostalgia. For a traditional English country house style interior, pair it with dark wood furniture, blue and white ceramics, and mis-matched seating. In a more contemporary setting, balance its intricate detail with minimalist décor; think clean-lined furniture, neutral linen textures, and pops of deep green or blush for a fresh, modern take.
Above: Nagano
We are so inpired by Nagano, a striking wallpaper with a modern-retro vibe, featuring an abundant pattern of leaves and ripe fruits brought to life with intricate etching-style detailing. Its rich palette feels fresh and contemporary. We would love to see this as a statement wallpaper in a kitchen or in a living space styled with clean neutrals to balance its intricate detailing.
Above: Teak
This sophisticated faux wood slat wallpaper offers the warmth and texture of real panelling but with the ease of a quick and simple installation. Shown here in the deep charcoal colourway, it creates a striking backdrop, adding depth and architectural interest, perfect for styling behind open shelving or below a dado rail for a refined, structured look. In contemporary spaces, pair it with sleek, minimalist furniture and monochrome accessories for a bold, modern edge, if you want a softer aesthetic, opt for one of the lighter colourways. This versatile wallpaper blends well with other designs in the collection, making it an easy choice for adding texture and depth to complement the space.
Above: Sunstone
Sunstone is a beautifully intricate small-scale geometric wallpaper, designed to add depth and texture without overwhelming a space. Shown here in a soft blue, its delicate diamond motif creates an inviting backdrop, making it ideal for use on all four walls. Perfect for bringing a warm backdrop to any space, it provides a subtle pattern that enhances artwork, framed prints and decorative furnishings, creating intimate and cosy spaces.

Above: Shambhala
This beautifully pictoral mural transports you to the legendary Shambhala Tibetan paradise, where tiered temples appear among lush jungle foliage and meandering pathways. Brought to life in a rich palette of verdant greens, soft pinks, and earthy reds, this mural creates an immersive scene that inspires creativity, relaxation, and wanderlust. We would love to see this used in light and airy living spaces or perhaps a home office to encourage a sense of escape and discovery! We would style it with travel-inspired furnishings, low-level seating, woven rugs and sculptural lighting, layering textures and materials that suggest a collected, well-travelled aesthetic.
