Order wallpaper samples – find the perfect wallpaper with sample swatches

You don't want to leave choosing the right wallpaper to chance; you want to feel how it will look in your home. That's exactly why we love sample swatches. They bring the true color, texture, and effect of the design right into your home, so you can take your time to look, compare, and make a confident decision. A small bonus with a big impact: Shipping is included with our samples, and if you order later, we'll refund the sample cost . So in the end, you won't have paid anything for the sample, but you'll have made the right choice.

Why wallpaper patterns are so valuable

A sample is like a taste of your future room. You can see if the color harmonizes with your lighting, if the pattern size suits the wall, and if the surface has the high-quality feel you're hoping for. Spending a few euros on samples will save you money, time, and hassle later on, because you'll avoid mistakes and order with complete confidence. It feels even better because shipping is included, and we'll reimburse you for the sample cost when you subsequently purchase wallpaper.

What you can see on a sample swatch

You'll receive a high-resolution sample of your chosen design printed on our 180 g/m² non-woven wallpaper. You'll see the matte surface, feel its thickness, and appreciate the sharp details and subtle color nuances. This is exactly how the finished wallpaper will look and feel on your wall.

Honestly assess colors

Light is the game-changer. Daylight makes colors appear fresher, while warm evening light softens tones. Hang the samples where you intend to hang them and observe them throughout the day. This way, you'll learn the true range of color effects and avoid any surprises.

Understanding scaling and rapport

Hold the pattern against the wall from a distance and view it from your usual perspective. This will help you better judge whether the leaves, blossoms, stone textures, or graphic elements are the right size. Our tip: Take a photo with your phone from two to three meters away and evaluate the effect on the screen. This simulates everyday viewing surprisingly well.

How to test samples correctly

Give yourself two to three days. Hang the samples where you want them to look and let your eyes take them in. You'll notice how much clearer the decision becomes when you give yourself space to feel them. The process is made even better because shipping is included and the sample costs are deducted from your purchase. This way, you can easily compare several favorites.

Apply patterns without leaving marks

Use washi tape or painter's tape. Smooth the patterns lightly and change their positions in the room. Test corners, niches, and the main wall. This way you can see if the design works everywhere and if it remains harmonious from different angles.

Comparing daylight and artificial light

Photograph the patterns in the same spot in the morning, at midday, and in the evening. Warm light creates a cozy atmosphere, while cool light appears crisp and modern. Both have their charm, but you'll quickly see what suits you best.

Distance, sight lines and height

Take two or three steps back and look at the surface from the sofa, the bed, or the entryway. Stick the sample in different positions: at eye level, next to furniture, a little higher, a little lower. This will help you visualize how it will look later when applied to the entire surface.

Combination with furniture, flooring and textiles

Add your fabric samples, wooden strips, carpet edges, and favorite cushions. Pay attention to undertones so that beige doesn't lean towards yellow and gray doesn't appear too cold. If the wall, furniture, and textiles form a harmonious triangle, you're on the right track.

Compare several favorites fairly

Hang three to five samples side by side. Rearrange them daily. The design that still smiles at you on the third day wins. If you're short on space, consider the room's purpose, as bedrooms benefit from more tranquility, while dining areas thrive on a bit of vibrancy.

The right wallpaper for your room

Every room has its own purpose, its own unique light, and a particular dynamic. A good wallpaper can enhance this and balance the atmosphere. A sample check will quickly help you understand the effect your room needs to feel like home.

Gently open up small spaces

Delicate watercolors, light natural tones, and subtle marble effects make rooms appear larger and calmer. Vertical elements elongate the space, while horizontal textures add width. Test the effect at your actual room height, not just at table height.

Balancing high or low ceilings

In rooms with low ceilings, vertical patterns such as lines, gradients, or plant motifs create a visually lengthening effect and make the room appear taller. In very high rooms, horizontal structures or slightly darker ceiling colors create a more intimate and calming atmosphere. Therefore, try applying your pattern almost to the ceiling – even if it's small, you'll quickly see whether the design makes the room appear taller or harmoniously unifies the space.

Lovingly designing a children's room

Soft colors like pastels or muted natural tones have a calming effect and create a soothing atmosphere in the children's room. At the same time, child-friendly motifs featuring animals, clouds, or plants stimulate the imagination and encourage curiosity and creative play. To get a realistic sense of the effect, test the patterns near the floor – that's where children spend most of their time playing. For added peace of mind, our children's wallpapers are free of PVC, plasticizers, and animal-derived materials, making them safe for children of all ages.

Material quality, sustainability and health

You spend a lot of time in your rooms. That's why it's important to us that everything is beautiful, healthy, and durable. Our wallpapers are designed and produced in Germany so that we can personally oversee quality and standards.

Our nonwoven fabric weighing 180 g/m²

The material is dimensionally stable, tear-resistant, and pleasant to work with. It lies flat and is forgiving of minor surface irregularities. Your sample will show you exactly this feel and the matte, elegant surface.

Production in Berlin Adlershof

We print on modern equipment with short lead times. This means reliable quality and fast help when you need us.

Custom tailoring and design service

Your space is unique. No two walls are alike, and that's precisely why we adapt each design to perfectly suit your proportions. Whether large or small, wide or narrow – we ensure that the key design elements are placed where they look best. This creates a harmonious overall look that appears custom-made for you, rather than having random image cropping that disrupts your sense of space.

Consider windows, doors and sloping ceilings

Architectural features are what make a room exciting – and they shouldn't make your favorite image look incomplete. That's why we don't just need the dimensions. If you send us photos of your room, we can directly incorporate doors, windows, niches, or sloping ceilings into the design. This way, we arrange the image so that it's perfectly harmonious and you feel completely at home in your space.

Scale patterns instead of losing impact

Marble with veins that are too small can look restless, while an XXL flower can quickly overwhelm. To prevent exactly that, we scale each design to your wall width. This preserves the natural effect, allowing you to experience the wallpaper as intended: balanced, harmonious, and coherent. Whether floral designs, stone effects, or watercolors – we ensure everything is perfectly balanced.

Numbered tracks for easy assembly

To ensure a stress-free installation, we precisely cut your wallpaper to size before shipping and number each strip. All you have to do is apply the strips to the wall in the correct order – no complicated guesswork required. Thanks to the paste-the-wall technique, you have plenty of time to align everything, and our accessory set makes the whole process incredibly easy. This way, you can look forward to the beautiful result from the very beginning, instead of worrying about the installation.

Ordering, shipping and costs

Ordering samples is quick and easy. This way, you can quickly make a decision that feels right. And yes, shipping is included with samples, and we'll reimburse you for the sample costs when you purchase your wallpaper. That makes the anticipation easy and fair.

Here's how to order your wallpaper samples

Choose your desired design, click on "Material Sample" and add the samples to your shopping cart. Each sample shows you the color, print quality and surface on the exact material that will later be on your wall.

Delivery time and shipping

We ship throughout Germany, the EU, and Switzerland. Samples are conveniently sent to you by post; shipping is included, and the cost will be credited towards your later wallpaper purchase.

How much a sample costs and why it's worthwhile

The costs are low and the security is high. Because shipping is included and we credit the sample costs when you order wallpaper from us, you ultimately pay nothing for samples and have maximum confidence in your decision.

Common mistakes in sample testing

A few minor pitfalls can easily be avoided if you know them. This way you get the most out of your samples, check color, motif and proportions more realistically and save yourself uncertainty.

Only test on the table

Don't just lay the samples flat on the table. Hang them where you want them to look, because height, light, and viewing angle significantly affect color and appearance. Test the main wall, the corner next to the window, and the wall opposite your lamp.

Judging too closely

Don't judge from 20 centimeters away. In everyday life, you perceive the wall from one to three meters away. Take a few steps back and snap a photo with your phone from that distance, perhaps from the sofa or the doorway. Slightly reduce the screen brightness, as this more accurately reflects reality.

Decide too quickly

Give yourself two to three days. Look at the samples morning, noon, and evening, as light noticeably changes tones. Rearrange the samples daily and observe which design consistently calms you or evokes joy. If time is short, consider the room's purpose: bedrooms need more tranquility, while dining areas can handle a touch of vibrancy. A nice bonus for your comparison: shipping is included, so you can easily test several favorites.

Do not test with textiles

Always compare your sample with the sofa, cushions, curtains, wooden floor, and any metal accents. Pay attention to undertones to ensure beige doesn't lean towards yellow and gray doesn't appear too cool. Create a small, harmonious arrangement of materials on the wall, fabric swatches, carpet edges, wooden trim, and wallpaper samples. If a balanced triangle emerges between the wall, furniture, and textile, the combination is successful. And if you decide to purchase based on this, the sample costs will be refunded upon purchase, so you ultimately pay nothing for samples, only for making the right choice.
