You never thought the day would come when wallpaper was cool again.

And yet, here it is courtesy of Wallpaper Republic, a Brisbane-based design company owned by brothers Richard and Bryce Capp.

One glace at their vibrant, creative, modern (and environmentally-friendly!) designs will have you taking back every mean thought you ever had about the humble wallpaper.

And rather than force flowers and stripes down your throat, Wallpaper Republic collaborates with local and international artists to ensure their designs don’t blend into the background.

A 7m2 roll starts at $350 and you can pick them up from stores across the country, or shop online.
