Nate Berkus's First Wallpaper Collection for Graham & Brown: What an Accent Wall, a Powder Room and a Mural Actually Cost

Graham & Brown launched The Curated Home by Nate Berkus on November 6, 2026: 42 wallpapers at $230 to $250 a double roll, $9-per-square-foot murals and 14 paints. Here's the room-by-room math, and which pieces to sample first.

The short version: if you have been wanting one room with real character, this is a well-priced way in for a single wall or a powder room. A full mural or the premium textures are a bigger commitment, so order $2 samples before you spend anything.

Graham & Brown introduced The Curated Home on November 6, 2026. It is Nate Berkus's first collection with the British wallpaper maker: 42 wallpapers, 3 custom murals and 14 coordinating paint colors, organized into four themes (Archival, Tailored, Haptic and Playful). Seventeen designs also come in premium cotton-yarn or paper-weave textures, printed to order.

We opened the collection and product pages on November 7, 2026, and did the math a press release skips.

The prices that matter

  • Standard wallpaper: $230 or $250 per double roll, depending on the design. On the collection page, Sunday Stripe, Rayure Stripe, Benedict Stripe, Braemar Plaid and Aliso are listed at $230, and so is Travertine Wash. Elmsley, Somerset Sheaf, Elderberry Stripe, Ravello and Menagerie are $250. The product pages say each double roll covers up to 56 square feet.
  • Custom murals: from $96.84, which the collection page lists as $9.00 per square foot. They are printed to your wall size.
  • Premium textures: from $1,095 per double roll.
  • Paint: Olive Forest showed $132 for one gallon. The collection grid lists other colors "from" $35 or $40, but the size that price buys depends on the option you choose.
  • Samples: $2 for an A4 sample, $6 for A3, with free sample shipping, per Graham & Brown's sample service page.

Room-by-room math

These are our worked examples, using Graham & Brown's own coverage figure. "Up to 56 square feet" is a best case, because a patterned paper loses length every time you line up a strip. Before you order, run your measurements through the "How much do I need?" calculator on each product page. Graham & Brown says it accounts for the design repeat.

One accent wall, 12 feet wide by 8 feet high (96 sq ft): - At least 2 double rolls. That is $460 in a $230 stripe or texture, or $500 in Elmsley or Menagerie. - The same wall as a custom mural at $9 per square foot is about $864. - The same wall in a premium texture starts at $2,190 for 2 rolls.

A small powder room, about 5 by 6 feet with 8-foot ceilings: that is roughly 176 square feet of wall. Subtract about 20 square feet for the door and you have around 156 square feet, or at least 3 double rolls ($690 to $750) before pattern waste.

Painted paneling plus paper: Graham & Brown's launch styling pairs Sunday Stripe Olive above deep olive wainscoting. If you copy that look on a 12-foot wall with paneling on the bottom 3 feet, the paper area is about 60 square feet. That is still just over one roll's 56, so plan on 2 rolls ($460), plus a $132 gallon of Olive Forest for the paneling.

What to buy first (and what to skip)

Start with Sunday Stripe or Travertine Wash if you want the Berkus look for $460 on one wall. Both are $230 designs. Travertine Wash is the quiet texture Graham & Brown suggests for hallways and dining rooms.

Choose Elmsley or Menagerie if you want the room to feel collected. Elmsley is a layered woodland scene. Menagerie is an illustrated animal-and-tree design that Graham & Brown says was hand-painted in gouache in its UK studio. Each costs $20 more per roll than the stripes.

Think hard before a mural or premium texture. Graham & Brown's delivery table says custom murals take up to 8 business days to print and ship. It also says custom murals, paint and samples cannot be returned. Standard wallpaper has a 30-day return policy with no restocking fee.

Skip it for now if you rent and haven't checked your lease, or if you want instant gratification. Graham & Brown notes that texture "changes with light," which is exactly why sampling first is worth $2.
