Wallpaper - The Bucket of List Red Blue

Created by Tanja Smedh, our The Bucket of List Red Blue wallpaper presents a serene face nestled within a sea of vibrant carmine red and pink blooms set against a soft, light teal backdrop. The illustrated floral composition pairs flowing ink-style linework with rich petal forms, drawing on Art Nouveau influences to create a dreamy, mysterious visual character. The striking contrast between the intense reds and the calming blue-green ground gives this art wallpaper an expressive balance across the wall. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure and PVC-free, printed on paper with a subtle physical structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We like this design best where its artistic composition can be appreciated without feeling crowded. In a quiet meditation room or a creative home art studio, the artwork creates an inspiring backdrop that anchors the entire room. Because the floral motifs and central face form a bold focal point, we recommend giving our wall mural an uninterrupted accent wall where the full detail can remain visible. If you are styling a larger living space or bedroom retreat, placing the design behind a low sofa or a minimalist headboard allows the upper botanical elements and serene expression to command visual attention naturally.

Styling it

Because our design features rich linework and intense carmine tones, we suggest keeping surrounding furnishings relatively quiet and sculptural. Clean, simple furniture profiles in mid-century or contemporary silhouettes balance the ornate, Art Nouveau feel of the florals without competing for focus. Warm wood tones or simple painted surfaces allow the wallpaper to remain the clear visual centerpiece. For soft furnishings, solid textures in neutral shades provide grounding contrast against the dynamic floral movement.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper features deep carmine red, soft pink, and a delicate light teal ground. To build a cohesive palette around it, consider bringing out the cool background with soft sage, muted blue-green, or pale grey paint on adjoining walls and woodwork. If you prefer a richer and more intimate setting, deep burgundy accents or warm terracotta tones can echo the floral petals. Neutral off-whites and soft taupes also work well on larger furniture pieces to let the wallpaper's popping palette stand out cleanly.
