Celebrity chef Giada DeLaurentiis is an expert on all things Italian cooking — from pastas and focaccias to pizza and paninis. But her love for her Italian heritage shows up in more than just her delicious meals. In a recent Instagram post, DeLaurentiis gave her followers a peek into a room in her home where she does her back pain relief stretches, and the wallpaper is giving major Amalfi Coast vibes.

“It’s officially summer and also happens to be #internationalyogaday, so I thought l’d share some of my fav stretches to help with back pain,” DeLaurentiis captioned her video, first posted on June 21.

“Looks so amazing and relaxing! And I love that wallpaper!” one person commented on her post. Another said, “Love your 🍋wallpaper.”

DeLaurentiis’ workout room is decorated with the Frutto Proibito wallpaper from Milan-based design company Fornasetti. In the colorway DeLaurentiis chose, the fruits look like lemons. But according to the wallpaper’s description, the fruits are actually pomegranates (and there’s a sneaky little monkey that appears every so often with a stolen pomegranate in his hands).

The wallpaper comes in four colorways, but the seafoam and lemon print that appears in DeLaurentiis’ home is obviously a fan-favorite — it’s currently sold out on Fornasetti’s website.

Of course, there are hundreds of different lemon wallpapers on the market and plenty to choose from with teal and yellow colors that give a similar feel to the Fornasetti pattern.

She may be a master of Italian cooking, but DeLaurentiis is a master of Italian-themed decorating too (just peep the pasta artwork hanging on the wall). With her site the Giadzy, DeLaurentiis is making a major name for herself as a food and lifestyle icon. 

In the last year alone, she’s brought back a dated kitchen cabinet color trend, shared her brilliant hack for keeping her kitchen counters organized and her sneaky pantry storage solution tip, and revealed her favorite old fashioned cocktail glasses for anyone who wants to match her vibe. Now, you’ll want to add the Fornasetti lemon wallpaper to your wishlist. You’ll feel like you’re on getaway every time you step foot into the room.
