Wallpaper - Underwater Peacocks

Our Underwater Peacocks wallpaper, created by Imary, brings together intricate birds with pink and earthy brown plumage, surrounded by lush green foliage and curling spiral forms against a dark backdrop. The symmetrical, garden-like composition draws on classic Arts and Crafts and Art Nouveau influences, accented with playful dots of yellow and bright pops of lime green that give the motif an expressive, whimsical character. It is a distinctive design that balances ornamental detail with organic movement across the wall. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in a living room, a cosy home library, or an art studio where an intricate, decorative motif can take centre stage. Because the composition relies on symmetrical balance and detailed plumage, giving the wallpaper an uninterrupted wall allows the full rhythm of the repeating birds and curving botanicals to unfold without disruption. In a larger living room, it makes a striking feature wall behind a main seating area, grounding the space with rich contrast. In smaller, more intimate rooms like a reading corner or study, wrapping multiple walls in the design creates an immersive, cocooning feel, where the darker background and luminous green accents draw the eye inward.

Styling it

To let the detailed illustration stand out, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with furniture that has clean, grounded silhouettes and warm, understated finishes. Mid-century or classic heritage furniture in warm, mid-toned woods complements the earthy brown tones of the plumage while keeping the surrounding room calm. Simple upholstery in muted, solid fabrics balances the energetic curves and dense botanical foliage, preventing the space from feeling cluttered. For decorative accents, subtle aged brass or darkened metal hardware sits naturally alongside the historic Art Nouveau aesthetic without competing with the lively lime green and pink highlights in the pattern.

Colour combinations

The design centres on a rich palette of deep background tones, earthy browns, soft pinks, and vibrant lime green accents. When choosing paint for adjacent walls, skirting boards, or woodwork, we recommend echoing the softer earthy neutrals or muted forest greens found within the motif to create a cohesive backdrop. If you prefer higher contrast, a warm off-white or deep charcoal provides a clean boundary that frames the pattern crisply. For soft furnishings and larger textiles, warm ochre, dusty rose, or olive green pick up on the secondary plumage and branch details, tying the entire interior together effortlessly.
