Wallpaper - At the Circus

Our At the Circus wallpaper captures the spirited energy of a festive big top set against a vivid sunset sky. Created by Tono Balaguer, this design centres on a large blue and white striped tent with pointed peaks draped in glowing string lights and colourful lanterns. Warm orange and pink evening tones in the background contrast against the bold cobalt blue stripes, giving the scene a vibrant, storybook presence. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and is completely PVC-free with a subtle physical structure in the paper.

In the room

Because the motif features a large, dramatic focal point, we like giving this wall mural a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full circus tent and glowing sky can spread out completely. It works naturally in a playroom, nursery, or a lively children's bedroom where creative, joyful art sets the tone. Positioning the design along an accent wall behind a low bed frame or open toy storage keeps the detailed lantern lights and peak stripes fully visible. In rooms with plenty of daylight, the contrast between the cobalt stripes and the warm sunset gradients stands out distinctly, while lower evening lighting brings out the warm, glowing feel of the illustrated carnival bulbs.

Styling it

With such an expressive and colourful design, we recommend keeping larger surrounding furniture relatively simple so the wallpaper remains the central feature. Smooth painted furniture in neutral tones or light natural wood helps balance the lively geometric stripes of the tent. If you want to echo the playful energy of the scene, select a couple of smaller decor accents in bright cobalt or warm orange, but leave plenty of negative space around the room so the wall mural has space to breathe.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself features a rich combination of cobalt blue, crisp white, glowing warm orange, soft sunset pinks, and colourful lantern accents. To complement these shades, we suggest painting adjacent walls in a soft, clean off-white or a very pale warm cream to let the deep blues and sunset tones take centre stage. For trim, doors, or smaller furniture pieces, drawing out the deep cobalt blue or a muted peach-orange from the background sky creates a cohesive and thoughtful palette without feeling overwhelming.
