Wallpaper - Papillion II, Purple

Our Papillion II, Purple wallpaper brings together vivid yellow butterflies, striking purple blooms, and lush green leaves across a rich, dark backdrop with burnt orange undertones. Created by RNM Arts, this design balances ink-inspired outlines with playful pops of bright colour to create an artistic, rhythmic floral and insect composition. The crisp white dots and delicate line work give each butterfly distinct definition against the deeper background. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making it a distinctive choice for an expressive feature wall.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a bedroom, dressing room, or living room where you want to introduce lively pattern without overwhelming the space. On an accent wall behind a bed or sofa, the symmetrical balance of the butterflies and botanicals creates an immediate focal point. Because the contrast between the dark base and vibrant floral motifs is pronounced, giving the mural an uninterrupted wall allows the full rhythm of the repeating garden scene to unfold naturally. In a home office or dining area, the warm orange tones and cheerful yellows bring an engaging, whimsical character to the room during both daytime and relaxed evening hours.

Styling it

To let the expressive pattern take centre stage, we suggest keeping surrounding furnishings relatively grounded. Clean-lined contemporary furniture in warm wood tones, such as mid-tone oak or walnut, echoes the earthy warmth in the wallpaper base without competing for attention.

For accents, selecting one or two colours directly from the print creates a cohesive interior scheme. Deep purple cushions, an ochre throw, or brass hardware offer refined contrast against the dark background, while matte black light fittings complement the delicate ink linework throughout the motif.

Colour combinations

The design features a rich interplay of bright purple, sunny yellow, crisp white, deep green, and warm burnt orange against a dark background. To complement these verified tones, consider pairing the wallpaper with adjacent walls painted in a soft, muted terracotta or warm ochre to highlight its earthy undertones. If you prefer a moodier atmosphere, a deep charcoal or aubergine on neighbouring surfaces creates a seamless, enveloping feel, while an off-white or warm cream trims keep the overall look fresh and bright.
