Floral paradise

The house in which Arnold and Katrien Botha previously lived was relatively modern. “We tried a minimalist style with neutral colours, but it actually drove us both crazy,” says Katrien. After the birth of their second daughter last year, they moved to this historic home in Strand and decided to incorporate their passion for flowers and gardening into their décor. “We want to live surrounded by colour!” This botanical design from Groen Bespoke Wallpaper was the perfect option for the entrance hall. The Bothas decided to apply the wallpaper just up to the picture rail to accentuate the high ceilings in the house.

Tip

Don’t be afraid to be bold with your wallpaper, says Alana Groenewald of Groen Bespoke Wallpaper. “An accent wall can completely change any space and make it look new again. Choose a design that resonates with your style and personality.”

In three-year-old Klara’s bedroom, another Groen design provides a timeless aesthetic. Here, the Bothas also pasted the wallpaper to just below the picture rail and painted the strip above it in a complementary dusty-pink.
