The Hippie style emerged from the countercultural movement of the 1960s, rooted in ideals of peace, freedom, and rejection of mainstream consumer culture. Influenced by global textiles, psychedelic art, folk traditions, and Eastern spirituality, its visual language embraced bold colour, fluid forms, hand-drawn motifs, and symbolic pattern. In interiors, this translated into expressive wallpapers featuring swirling psychedelia, florals, mandalas, and nature-inspired designs — patterns that prioritised individuality and creative freedom over convention.
