Our new collection with artist Claire de Quénetain is here! Known for her vibrant murals, wallpapers, and fabrics, de Quénetain has collaborated with Pepper on a variety of new prints, available in printed linen, printed cotton, and wallpaper varietals. Whether you’re inclined to decorate with one of these new peppy patterns or are more drawn toward some of the solids in this collection, you cannot go wrong. Below, eight interior designers are sharing their top tips for styling these new textiles throughout the home.
Style a Sweet Little Girl’s Room
“The combination of lavender and green in Ruby Burgundy makes it an ideal fabric for a little girl's room. I would use it for drapery or Roman shades, adding a touch of elegance and charm. For the bed, I’d incorporate Euro shams made from the Laurel Velvet, finished with the Dusty Rose Fringe trim, and a round bolster pillow in Ruby Burgundy with Walnut Velvet piping. To complete the space, I’d paint the room's trim Sulking Room Pink by Farrow + Ball and the walls in Skimming Stone, creating a timeless design that a little girl can grow into.” — Erin Tripodi, founder of Erin Tripodi Design
Design the Ceiling of Your Dreams
“For a bold, transportive touch, drape one of Claire de Quénetain’s luxury linen-cotton blends as a ceiling canopy. A suspended fabric canopy against solid walls creates tension, intrigue, and a sense of effortless luxury. This unexpected application transforms a bedroom into a dreamy escape or a dining room into an intimate, atmospheric retreat. The effect is nothing short of breathtaking, softening acoustics, adding movement, and infusing any space with drama and allure.” — Ayten Nadeau, founder of i-TEN DESIGNS
Add Charm to a Nursery
“Pepper and Claire de Quénetain’s new collection has a whimsical, painterly charm that is perfect for a nursery or children’s room. The soft, organic brushstrokes and vibrant yet soothing colors create a playful and serene space. I’d pair the printed linens with natural wood furniture and layered textures—think woven rugs and rattan accents. Whether used for drapery, bedding, or an accent chair, these prints add a dreamy, storybook-like quality, making the room feel imaginative and inviting.” — Brianna Untener, founder of Brianna Scott Interiors
“Claire de Quénetain’s whimsical prints are charming and effortlessly elegant. I can just imagine the Ruby (Burgundy or Moss) wallpaper transforming a nursery into a romantic, timeless oasis. To create a striking contrast, I would pair it with a camel velvet rocking chair—an unexpected color combination that adds warmth and depth to the space.” — Mara Silber, founder of Mara Silber
Reupholster an Ottoman
“The Claire collection is quintessential English country mixed with a contemporary color palette. My favorite pattern is the Gemma Pear, which I think would work beautifully on a tufted ottoman with Laurel Velvet buttons and piping. It also pairs beautifully with several of the printed linens, including Ginger and Emma Sky, which are perfectly suited to drapery panels.” — Madelaine Mayer, founder of AD:ROIT
Add a Pop to the Powder Room
“The Matilda wallpaper is a perfect choice for an unexpected design moment in a powder room. Its delicate pattern brings a sense of freshness and refinement, transforming a small space into an elegant retreat with a touch of English charm.” — Mara Silber, founder of Mara Silber
Say Yes to Sage
“Since the color sage is all the rage, I would love to use Laurel Velvet as custom curtains in a bedroom. This is a particularly soothing, relaxing, and serene color choice. Instead of opting for traditional curtains on a rod, I would love to use a hidden track system in the ceiling that would create the illusion of a wall of curtains; this idea would not only provide privacy but also create this luxurious effect that we often see in high end hotels. This is a great way to bring in an ‘accent wall’ without having to paint the wall a bold color” — Dijana Savic-Jambert, co-founder of Maredi Design
Usher in Spring
“In the spirit of welcoming spring, bringing the outdoors in with lively colors and organic patterns is essential. Using the Ruby Moss wallpaper from the Claire de Quénetain collection on the ceiling will elevate the space while maintaining a light and airy feel. For a touch of warmth, incorporate Camel Velvet from the same collection as a built-in window seat cushion or bench. Complete the look with brushed brass accents and textured cream pillows lined with dark green piping to create a cozy yet refreshing space that seamlessly blends indoor comfort with hints of nature.” — Melissa Fields, founder of Shades of Gray Design
