You might not even know it, but flock wallpaper is back. The pattern that was so popular in the 1950s and 1970s and has seen a revival in recent years, and many homes are getting the retro look. It’s no surprise, though. Flock wallpaper is chic, stylish, and timeless. You can find it in homes of all different styles, from traditional to modern. But why do people love flock wallpaper so much?
Flock wallpaper has always been known for its simple design and its ability to work with any color palette; this makes it an easy way to bring the past into the future. Now you too can try out this trend by learning about how to properly style your home with this chic pattern!
Abstract Flock Wallpaper
A trending style in flock wallpaper is abstract flock wallpapers, in this range of luxurious wallpapers the flock wallpaper picks out the detail in an abstract design creating visually stunnning tactile backdrops to any room. The result is a modern contemporary style which is accentuated by the flock wallpaper rather than the making the flock itself be the dominant style.
Luxury fashion house, Missoni, released this fantastic flock wallpaper, Fiamma, as part of their Missoni Home 2 Collection of wallpapers. The fiamma design resembles flowing water or wood grain adding a subtle abstract design which does not overpower the room.
Utsuro Glacier Wallpaper from Romo Black Edition
This beautiful abstract flock wallpaper features an abstract treescape, available in five colourways, is inspired by Japanese artist, Katsutoshi Yuasa's woodblock prints. The fine linear appearance combines to give an almost velvet touch.

Another fantastic abstract flock wallpaper from Romo Black Edition is Otoko. Available in four colourways this flock is a sophisticated pattern of swirled at times interlocking circles giving a sense of drama and movement.
Geometric Flock Wallpaper
Another contemporary take on flock wallpapers are geometric flock wallpapers. Similar to the abstract wallpapers above, picking a geometric flock wallpaper keeps the flock look up to date and modern, whilst adding anotehr dimension to the geometric design. Prisma wallpaper, shown below in a vibrant red, from HookedOnWalls has a very contemporary ultra modern look.
As an alternative for a classic contemporary style with a softer look, Missoni Home, offer a flock wallpaper version of their classic chevron Zig-Zag design.
