Cyprien Eggplant Copper
Cyprien Eggplant Copper is a graphic wood-effect wallpaper in deep eggplant purple with copper-toned metallic accents. The design breaks the wood grain into geometric segments, so the pattern reads as a constructed arrangement of panels rather than a literal plank wall. The dark purple ground holds the design together, while the copper picks out edges and facets.
Pattern and surface
The surface is textured, giving the blocks a shallow relief that follows the printed lines and makes the grain effect more convincing up close. The metallic areas have a shimmering finish that shifts as you move past the wall or as daylight changes, so the same panel can look muted in the morning and brighter under lamplight in the evening. That movement is what keeps a dark colour from flattening out across a large surface. These are premium quality wallpapers. There is more in the same vein among the wood-effect designs, and the geometric patterns cover the more angular side of the same idea.
Style and rooms
The mix of hard geometry and metallic detail places it in contemporary design schemes and alongside Art Deco furniture. It pairs with brass or copper fittings, dark timber, and upholstery in grey, ink or ochre. Against white or pale grey paint on the remaining walls, the purple stays the focal point without closing the room in.
- Living rooms, including behind a sofa or around a TV unit
- Bedrooms, often on the headboard wall alone
- Hallways, where the shimmer works under artificial light
- Kitchens, dining rooms, home offices and bathrooms
As an accent wall it gives a seating area a clear backdrop, and in a home office the dark ground reduces glare behind a screen. It comes from the Daniel Hechter collection.
