Wallpaper - Collage Insects III

Created by Courtney Prahl, our Collage Insects III wallpaper brings the artistic character of a mixed-media sketchbook directly to the wall. The composition arranges an assortment of colorful insects over a textured paper-style collage ground, combining delicate paint-drawing outlines with vintage paper fragments, soft pastel pinks, and warm cream tones. This light, graphic layout gives each specimen space to breathe, lending an eclectic and curious feel to your interior. Like all our wallpapers, this design is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because the collage layout works like an open study sheet with multiple individual focal points, we especially like this design on walls where the eye has time to wander. In a home office, study, or living room, it introduces an artistic layer without overwhelming the entire space. The light background makes it equally charming across an entryway, hallway, or guest room, where natural curiosity is rewarded as guests pass by.

In a nursery, playroom, or children's bedroom, our mural wallpapers bring an imaginative natural history theme to life. The balanced distribution of the insects means the pattern works well whether placed along an open wall behind a desk or child's bed, or framed between architectural doorways and shelving.

Styling it

We recommend letting the eclectic, sketchbook nature of the wallpaper guide the rest of the room. Natural wood furniture in soft pine, pale birch, or warm oak pairs effortlessly with the paper-like background. Simple silhouettes keep the room grounded, allowing the intricate painted and collaged details of the insects to remain the primary visual highlight.

For surrounding accents, matte ceramic pieces and textured linen or cotton upholstery complement the mixed-media look. Introducing subtle vintage touches, such as brass task lamps or framed line art on adjacent walls, helps tie together the 20th-century eclectic style without crowding the space.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a soft foundation of cream and off-white paper textures, enlivened by gentle pastel pink, earthy tones, and colorful accents within each insect illustration.

To create a cohesive scheme, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with chalky off-whites, warm bone, or muted alabaster on surrounding walls and woodwork. If you want to draw out the pattern's richer tones, accents in muted blush, warm terracotta, or soft moss green will echo the natural pigments in the collage.
