The Collab That Stopped Us in Our Tracks: Urban Road x Tim Neve
Every year, we look forward to the Decor + Design Show—a highlight on the design calendar where creativity, innovation, and new ideas come to life. But this year, there was one moment that truly stopped us in our tracks.
Urban Road’s new collaboration with Tim Neve.
We stumbled across it while wandering the floor—and we fell in love instantly. It was one of those rare design moments where everything just clicked: the palette, the texture, the layers, the mood. Earthy yet elevated. Effortless but deeply considered.
So naturally, we couldn’t wait to share it with you.
What we love about the collection
This range brings together the best of Australian design sensibility: muted desert tones, bold forms, layered textures, and subtle nods to the natural world. It’s a mix of vintage nostalgia and modern restraint—something Tim Neve is known for, and something Urban Road has executed to perfection.
We’ve curated a few of our favourite pieces from the collection that we think would elevate any space:
Artworks That Work Hard (and Look Incredible)
The framed art prints are available in a range of sizes and frame finishes, which makes them super versatile. Whether you're styling a tiny nook or making a statement in your living room, there’s a size to suit.
And let us just say: the walnut frame finish? Breathtaking. It adds just the right amount of warmth and polish—like jewellery for your walls.
Style Meets Accessibility
One of the things we truly appreciate about this collaboration is that it brings a designer’s eye to accessible design. These are statement pieces that don’t break the bank, which means you can add style, mood, and personality to your home without the stress.
Because at the end of the day, every home deserves to feel elevated. Whether you're just starting your styling journey or you're looking to add that final layer of polish, this collection has something to offer.
→ THE ORIGINS WALLPAPER: Comes in a range of colours, from bold to neutral, this is fun and timeless paper which just feels joyous!
Wallpaper with WOW Factor
Wallpaper is having a moment (again), and this collection proves why. These designs are show stoppers—bold but balanced, graphic yet grounded. They’re the kind of wallpapers that completely transform a room, whether used floor-to-ceiling or in smaller panels for added interest.
We’re currently dreaming of one in a powder room or behind a bedhead for a boutique hotel feel at home.
THE COLLAGE WALLPAPER: Feels a bit more graphic but still comes in a range of colours which will layer easily into many interiors.
The cushions that you didn’t know that you needed
Looking for a smaller entry point into the collection? Start with a cushion. The textures and prints in this range are rich, tactile, and meant to be mixed and matched. And honestly? You can never have too many cushions.
Scatter a few on the bed, layer them on the sofa, or switch them out seasonally to freshen up your space.
In Conversation with Lara from Urban Road
We had the pleasure of chatting with Lara from Urban Road at the stand and got the inside scoop on how this collaboration came together. As Lara explained, the idea was to bring Tim Neve’s signature layered aesthetic to life across a collection that’s both beautiful and accessible—art, cushions, and wallpaper that can work in any home, no matter your style or budget.
And it delivers. In spades.
