Wallpaper - A Blue Note Butterfly II

Our A Blue Note Butterfly II wallpaper by Lisa Audit centres on a finely detailed, sketch-style butterfly against a soft cream backdrop. Rendered with the visual delicacy of an ink and pencil drawing, the wings combine deep brown, taupe, and softer earthy tones with natural spots and fine linework. The generous negative space around the central study gives the motif a poised, classical character without feeling overly busy. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural with a subtle paper texture, it provides an understated focal point suited to both heritage and modern interiors.

In the room

Because this design is composed around a central graphic focal point, we like giving it a dedicated, relatively uninterrupted wall area. It works particularly well in a bedroom behind a headboard or on a main wall in a study, home office, or library where the fine pencil-like details can be appreciated up close. In a living room, dressing room, or guest room, placing the butterfly centrally within the wall layout allows the open cream ground to breathe naturally alongside your furniture.

For a hallway, staircase landing, or powder room, the neutral palette keeps the space feeling open while still introducing an artistic, considered accent. Where daylight is bright, the delicate tonal gradations between taupe and deep brown remain clear and crisp; under softer evening lighting, the cream background takes on a warmer, intimate feel.

Styling it

The heritage, botanical illustration look of this wallpaper naturally complements classical, transitional, and relaxed contemporary schemes. We would lean towards understated furnishings that echo its calm, archival aesthetic.

Darker wood tones like antique mahogany or walnut resonate beautifully with the deep brown linework, while warm oak or painted off-white furniture keeps the atmosphere lighter and more casual. Keeping surrounding upholstery and drapery in simple, unpatterned fabrics allows the detailed inkwork of the wings to remain the focal point of the room.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by a quiet range of neutrals, spanning warm cream, soft taupe, and rich shades of brown.

Around the room, we suggest working with warm off-whites, stone, or muted beige on adjacent walls, woodwork, and skirting to maintain a seamless, tonal transition. If you prefer deeper contrast, richer shades like espresso brown, warm charcoal, or deep olive green drawn from surrounding furnishings create a sophisticated, grounded frame for the lighter wallpaper surface.
