Wallpaper - Little Houses III

Created by designer Sarah Adams, our Little Houses III wallpaper brings a trio of whimsical storybook buildings to life against a warm eggshell backdrop. The graphic composition features three distinct architectural silhouettes: a broad cottage with a red striped roof and decorative folk motifs, a tall white townhouse accented by yellow details and a dark pitched roof, and a friendly home topped with scalloped pink tiles. Flanked by stylized olive green foliage, this playful design blends clean mid-century screenprint aesthetics with modern Scandinavian warmth. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, making it straightforward to hang while adding a cheerful focal point to any space.

In the room

We designed this mural wallpaper with young spaces in mind, and it works wonderfully across nurseries, toddler rooms, kids' bedrooms, and dedicated playrooms. The strong horizontal baseline of the houses anchors the design beautifully when placed above low baseboards, a crib, or a child's low-slung bed. Because the three main buildings form a clear central focal point, we recommend installing it on a wide, relatively uninterrupted feature wall where the full trio can stand out without being fragmented by tall storage units or wardrobes. In a nursery or playroom with ample natural daylight, the crisp contrast between the bold black linework and the soft eggshell background feels open and visually engaging without overwhelming the rest of the interior.

Styling it

To keep the whimsical charm of the wall mural at the center of the space, we suggest pairing it with clean, functional furnishings that echo its Scandinavian simplicity.

• Choose light, natural wood furniture such as birch or light ash for cribs, shelving, and play tables to bring organic warmth alongside the illustrated shapes.
• Incorporate simple painted pieces in soft off-white or matte black to mirror the distinct graphic outlines of the windows and doorways.
• Keep floor coverings quiet with a plain, neutral woven rug, allowing the playful shapes on the wall to remain the primary visual element in the room.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper centers on a clean, creamy eggshell white base, brought to life by vibrant pops of cherry red, petal pink, bright yellow, and olive green, all anchored by bold black linework. When selecting paint colors for adjacent walls and trim, we suggest pulling directly from these accents. Soft cream or warm off-white on adjoining walls maintains an airy, unified backdrop. For trim, doors, or low cabinetry, picking up the muted olive green or a delicate blush pink creates a cohesive palette that feels intentional and cheerful.
