Wallpaper - Butterfly II

Our Butterfly II wallpaper features a bold, graphic butterfly centered against a warm, soft beige backdrop. Designed by Carrie Cantwell, this playful motif draws on retro sixties aesthetics with strong black outlines and energetic color blocking. The upper wings showcase intricate patterns in green, pink, and bright blue, while the lower wings introduce rhythmic blue wave forms alongside vivid orange and green accents. Finished with a contrasting pink body and decorative flower-like motifs framing the corners, this mural wallpaper brings an artistic presence to any interior. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, it creates a cheerful focal point for creative residential spaces.

In the room

In a bedroom, playroom, or teenage room, we love positioning this design on the primary accent wall where the central composition can command full attention. Because the butterfly is framed by corner floral accents, it works especially well on an uninterrupted wall behind a bed, desk, or low sofa. In a dedicated home office or dressing room, our wallpaper introduces a lively graphic character that enlivens compact spaces without cluttering them. If you are styling an entryway or powder room, placing this design opposite the door provides an immediate splash of color and playful retro charm the moment you step inside.

Styling it

To let the expressive graphic linework and vibrant colors take center stage, we suggest pairing this design with simple furniture shapes and relatively quiet surroundings.

• Balance the strong 1960s-inspired artwork with clean-lined mid-century furniture in natural blonde wood or light ash, keeping the overall room feeling open and light.
• Choose surrounding textiles in solid, unpatterned fabrics like warm neutral cottons or soft boucle so they complement rather than compete with the intricate wing patterns.
• Echo the black outlines of the butterfly through slim black metal details, such as a minimalist desk lamp, slender mirror frame, or simple shelving hardware.

Colour combinations

The artwork centers on a rich, popping palette composed of petal pink, vivid rose, bright sky blue, lively green, and warm orange, all anchored by deep black contour lines against a neutral beige background. When selecting shades for adjacent walls, trim, or large furniture, pulling the soft beige base color into your paint choices creates a seamless, grounded backdrop. If you prefer a more expressive and colorful interior, subtle accents drawn directly from the wings, like a muted terracotta orange, a soft dusty rose, or a gentle sage green, will tie the entire space together harmoniously.
