Wallpaper - King of Hearts

Our King of Hearts wallpaper mural, designed by Yvette St. Amant, brings a playful, pop-art spin to the classic playing card motif. Featuring a stylized, cartoon-inspired king with heart-shaped sunglasses, a curled mustache, and an ice cream bar, the composition balances bold flat illustration with groovy 1960s graphic energy. Saturated shades of magenta pink and bright orange stand out against a clean white ground, framed by crisp mirrored card borders. Made to measure and entirely PVC-free, this design introduces an upbeat, graphic focal point with a light paper structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the motif draws on the mirrored symmetry of a playing card, we especially like giving this wall mural a clear, centered wall where its full graphic composition can be seen. In a lively living room or a dedicated den, it acts as an engaging conversation piece behind a low sofa or modular seating. The bold scale and lighthearted theme also make it a natural fit for a creative teenage room or an eclectic dressing room, where an accent wall can carry plenty of personality without feeling overly serious. In rooms with clean sightlines, the high visual contrast of the crisp white backdrop and vivid inks immediately draws the eye across the space.

Styling it

To let the graphic artwork take center stage, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture relatively streamlined and uncluttered. Low-profile seating with clean geometry works well against the mirrored card design, preventing taller pieces from cutting off the central figures. Introducing mid-century or retro accents, such as a lacquered coffee table or simple molded chairs, echoes the 1960s pop-art influence in the illustration.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is anchored by a vibrant palette of bold magenta pink, popping orange, and crisp white details. When planning the surrounding room, soft off-white or light neutral walls allow the mural wallpapers to stand out as the primary burst of color. For a more adventurous, color-drenched approach, picking up the saturated pink or sunny orange on a painted accent door, floor rug, or velvet cushion helps tie the entire room scheme together.
