Dive Into Darkness: 5 Ways to Embrace Glam Gothic Interiors This Autumn
The Magnus Gjoen x Feathr Wallpaper Collection invites you to explore the beauty of shadow: the romance of deep color, the allure of texture, and the artistry of imperfection.
As the clocks turn back and the nights draw in, interiors are moving away from bright summer tones and into something richer, moodier: and infinitely more glamorous. This autumn, we’re not resisting the dark: we’re diving into it.
The Magnus Gjoen x Feathr wallpaper collection transforms each design into an opulent, Neo-Gothic-inspired room.
Explore five spaces transformed into something quietly decadent: somewhere you will want to linger long after the sun sets.
1. Create Neo Gothic Drama
A Beautiful Thing is Never Perfect by Magnus Gjoen for Feathr
In A Beautiful Thing is Never Perfect, designer Magnus Gjoen uses the Baroque method of representing the cycle of life by interlacing vibrant blooms with hints of decay. This red and black skull wallpaper features a maximalist striped design with roses, gerberas, butterflies and snails entwined around be-flowered skulls hidden amongst the undergrowth.
Baroque florals and subtle skull motifs play across deep black and crimson stripes: classic yet subversive. Here, the wallpaper’s richness is echoed in velvet armchairs, patterned drapery and ruby-toned rugs, creating a layered, cocoon-like space that feels both historic and sensual.
This is the “new bohemian gothic”: maximalist but considered, where darkness is used not to overwhelm but to comfort. The repetition of deep reds pulls the room together, while touches of greenery soften the opulence.
2. Layer Luxe Textures
No Use Crying For Roses When Forests Are Burning by Magnus Gjoen for Feathr
Inspired by traditions ranging from the Arts & Craft movement through to Venetian Rococo and Babylonian frescoes, the maximalist No Use Crying For Roses wallpaper uses toned stripes to create a formal structure from a lush medley of oil-painted florals. Rendered in the colors of the earth and evening No Use Crying For Roses is a floral wallpaper to bring intensity and drama into a room.
This richly toned wallpaper is a study in modern baroque: deep amber, bronze, and botanical blacks create instant atmosphere. In this living space, it’s paired with ochre upholstery and velvet textures to amplify the feeling of warmth and depth.
Designers love this palette because it captures autumn’s glow without slipping into cliché. The floral pattern’s movement keeps the space from feeling heavy: proof that maximalism can be both bold and balanced.
3. Add a Twist of Classicism
Flower Bomb by Magnus Gjoen for Feathr
Flower Bomb wallpaper by Magnus Gjoen takes a formal Georgian striped design and add a touch of humour and complexity into the mix. The larger stripes of the cream flower bomb wallpaper feature a stylized bomb against a tranquil background as a way of showing how extremes often occur simultaneously in human existence.
Flower Bomb reimagines classical elegance for modern homes: the Pop Art inspired bomb motif playfully subverting the classic Georgian stripe wallpaper. Paired with a sculptural blush armchair, a geometric cushion, and a warm rug, the result is an elevated take on vintage charm: light meets dark in perfect balance.
The vertical motif elongates the walls, ideal for rooms that crave height and airiness. It’s a masterclass in a modern take on restrained drama: romantic, masculine, and beautifully timeless.
4. Play with Pattern and Contrast
Victory Over Ignorance by Magnus Gjoen for Feathr
In Victory over Ignorance by Magnus Gjoen, the ochre bars of this red stripe wallpaper are used to recall the metal bars. The stripes are set against a rich tangle of flora and fauna, with the trompe l’oeil effect and interaction between the stripes and florals brings the viewer to question what is restrained and what is free, and where real power lies.
A striking blend of floral romance and geometric control, this striped wallpaper brings sculptural sophistication to even the smallest space. In the bathroom, it plays beautifully with brass fittings and glossy black tiles: its matte texture offering contrast against the reflective finishes.
The red stripes draw the eye upward, subtly elongating the walls, while the moody florals lend intimacy. It’s a reminder that bathrooms deserve the same design attention as any living space: and that dark colours can be deeply relaxing.
5. Bring Whimsy to the Shadows
You Don’t Find The Light By Avoiding The Darkness by Magnus Gjoen for Feathr
In a juxtaposition of strong Dobermann Pinscher dogs and controlled floral designs, You Don’t Find the Light by Avoiding the Darkness is a unique design by Magnus Gjoen. The blue floral dog pattern wallpaper features a linear composition that exudes power while incorporating a touch of gentleness into the wallpaper.
A playful yet sophisticated take on gothic style, this wallpaper features painterly, floral Dobermann Pinschers parading across a midnight blue backdrop, connected by golden chains. In this study, its moody palette is lifted by burnished gold lighting and soft textures, creating a space that feels intellectual, layered, and quietly theatrical.
The secret here is contrast: masculine architecture meets witty pattern. It’s proof that even the darkest palette can spark personality: and that playfulness is part of true luxury.

Magnus Gjoen’s work invites us to look twice: to see fragility within strength, beauty within decay. His collaboration with Feathr continues that dialogue, bringing fine art into luxury interiors. Each wallpaper is made in Europe using sustainably sourced materials and water-based inks.
