We asked her to select matching colours from the MEINEWAND range that can be combined with her most famous wallpapers. ## Hippo wallpaper The colour [Boringdon Green from Little Greene](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-boringdon-green-295-1l) and [Pink Ground from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-pink-ground-202-0-75l) are taken from the colours of the striking animal wallpaper. Lisa Bengtsson also suggests [Dimity from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-dimity-2008-0-75l) as a white colour to match the wallpaper. For accents in the room, she opted for the striking orange [Charlotte's Locks from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-charlottes-locks-268-0-75l). The red component of the plain-coloured background of the wallpaper creates a connection to Charlotte's Locks. [![Hippo_pink](https://blog.meinewand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Lisa%20Bengtsson/Farbempfehlungen/Hippo_pink.jpg?width=800&height=1617&name=Hippo_pink.jpg)](https://www.meinewand.com/en/studio-lisa-bengtsson-wallpaper-hippo)   ## Rock on Wallpaper [Oval Room Blue](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-oval-room-blue-85-0-75l) and [Sulking Room Pink from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-sulking-room-pink-295-0-75l) are taken from the colours of this special fish wallpaper and provide a harmonious addition to the room. The green shade [Arsenic](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-arsenic-214-0-75l) was chosen by Lisa Bengtsson for accents in the room. Here, the blue-green of the plain background provides a connection to the wallpaper. She also suggests [Dimity from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-dimity-2008-0-75l) as a complementary shade of white. [![Rock_On](https://blog.meinewand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Lisa%20Bengtsson/Farbempfehlungen/Rock_On.jpg?width=800&height=1605&name=Rock_On.jpg)](https://www.meinewand.com/en/studio-lisa-bengtsson-wallpaper-rock-on-1317)   [![Read the interview with Lisa Bengtsson](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/14527399/60329830-6e90-4fa5-b01f-69cc1ac97782.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/14527399/60329830-6e90-4fa5-b01f-69cc1ac97782)   ## Sunday Wallpaper The broad colour spectrum of the Scandinavian-inspired floral wallpaper allows many combinations with colours from Farrow & Ball or Little Greene. Lisa Bengtsson picks up on the rich palette of purple and green tones with [Brinjal](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-brinjal-222-0-75l) and [Preference Red](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-preference-red-297-0-75l) or [Bancha](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-bancha-298-0-75l), [Ball Green](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-ball-green-75-0-75l) and [Card Room Green](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-card-room-green-79-0-75l). She recommends [Shaded White from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-shaded-white-201-0-75l) to complement the wallpaper. Lisa Bengtsson suggests [Bombole from Little Greene](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-bombolone-339-1) as a warm contrasting colour.[![Sunday](https://blog.meinewand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Lisa%20Bengtsson/Farbempfehlungen/Sunday.jpg?width=800&height=1690&name=Sunday.jpg)](https://www.meinewand.com/en/studio-lisa-bengtsson-wallpaper-sunday) ## Dodo Wallpaper [Eating Room Red by Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-eating-room-red-43-0-75l) picks up on the red and purple tones of this pleasantly eccentric bird pattern. The subtle [Pink Ground from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-pink-ground-202-0-75l) also fits in well. [Dimity from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-dimity-2008-0-75l) complements the wallpaper as a shade of white. [Red Earth from Farrow & Ball](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-red-earth-64-0-75l) works well as a contrasting colour. Lisa Bengtsson was inspired by the wood colour of the table in the foreground. In combination with the wallpaper, it creates an eye-catching yet warm accent in the room. [![Dodo](https://blog.meinewand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Lisa%20Bengtsson/Farbempfehlungen/Dodo.jpg?width=800&height=1580&name=Dodo.jpg)](https://www.meinewand.com/en/studio-lisa-bengtsson-wallpaper-dodo-1419) [![Read the interview with Lisa Bengtsson](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/14527399/60329830-6e90-4fa5-b01f-69cc1ac97782.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/14527399/60329830-6e90-4fa5-b01f-69cc1ac97782) ## Wallpaper Hippo Grey Lisa Bengtsson has taken the colours [Studio Green](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-studio-green-93-0-75l), [School House White](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-school-house-white-291-0-75l) and [Ball Green from Little Greene](https://www.meinewand.com/en/farrow-ball-dead-flat-ball-green-75-0-75l) from the pattern, so they match the wallpaper harmoniously. The warm brown colour [Muscovado](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-muscovado-343-1l) appears in the basket in the foreground. It creates contrasts and a cosy atmosphere at the same time. [![Hippo_grey](https://blog.meinewand.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog/Lisa%20Bengtsson/Farbempfehlungen/Hippo_grey.jpg?width=800&height=1621&name=Hippo_grey.jpg)](https://www.meinewand.com/en/studio-lisa-bengtsson-wallpaper-hippo) ## Swanlake Pink Wallpaper The Little Greene shades [Jack Black](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-jack-black-119-1l), the white tone [Shirting](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-shirting-129-1l) and the deep red tone [Baked Cherry](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-baked-cherry-14-1l), which corresponds to the colour of the beaks of the magnificent swans, are taken from the pattern of the wallpaper. Lisa Bengtsson opted for [Mischief](https://www.meinewand.com/en/little-greene-absolute-matt-emulsion-mischief-13-1l), also from Little Greene, as a contrasting colour. This shade of violet is the strong version of the plain background. It therefore catches the eye, but is still related to the pattern of the wallpaper.
