Wallpaper - Italian Dinner I

Our Italian Dinner I wallpaper, designed by Danhui Nai, brings the warmth of a Mediterranean table directly to the wall. Illustrated with a charming hand-drawn feel, the composition features vine-ripened tomatoes, fresh basil, garlic, olive branches, eggplant, and a plate of ravioli, alongside a crusty baguette, a wedge of cheese, and a bottle and glass of wine. The motifs are arranged across an ivory and green checkered backdrop, finished with cursive "Bon Appetit" lettering in soft blue. Produced as custom made-to-measure mural wallpapers, each order is printed on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love how this design naturally suits social food spaces, particularly in a kitchen, a relaxed dining room, or a pantry. Because the checkered pattern and culinary illustrations create an active visual rhythm, we think it works wonderfully on a feature wall behind a casual dining nook or along a main kitchen wall where the full repeat can breathe. In a dining room, the food-inspired artwork provides an inviting, conversational focal point during shared meals. For a vacation home or country kitchen, papering an alcove or an accent wall brings character without overwhelming the surrounding space.

Styling it

The rustic, illustrative character of this design lends itself to warm, traditional, and farmhouse-inspired interiors. Here is how we would approach the space:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm wood furniture, such as a rustic dining table or open timber shelving, which complements the earthy tones of the illustrations.
• Introduce classic ceramic tableware and simple glassware that echo the relaxed bistro feel of the motif.
• Keep surrounding cabinetry or wall panelling in quiet, painted finishes so the checkered backdrop remains the primary pattern in the room.

Colour combinations

The design is built on an ivory and earthy green checkered base, punctuated by the deep reds of ripe tomatoes, fresh leaf greens, warm bread crust tones, and soft blue typography. When choosing colours for surrounding walls or woodwork, creamy off-whites and pale ivory create a soft, natural transition. For a richer pairing, pulling a muted olive or sage green onto painted cabinets or trims reinforces the background grid, while small accents of deep wine red or soft dusty blue can be echoed through seat cushions or table linens.
