Wallpaper - Poppy Float

Our Poppy Float wallpaper, created by artist Andrea Sjöström, brings together three distinct botanical stems against a warm cream backdrop layered with subtle wildflower sketches and fern fronds. A deep red watercolour poppy commands attention on the left, balanced by a slender pale pink alstroemeria through the centre and a full magenta chrysanthemum with layered petals to the right. The contrast between the saturated floral tones and the delicate, faded background gives the composition a light, painterly depth. Made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our design is straightforward to hang and brings an artistic presence to any space.

In the room

In a living room or bedroom, we see this design working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall behind a sofa or bed headboard. Because the main floral motifs are placed horizontally across the composition with generous negative space around them, giving the wallpaper a wide wall lets each bloom breathe without feeling crowded. The lighter cream ground makes it equally suited to a dining room or dressing room, where the floral details can be appreciated at close range while keeping the overall room open and bright.

Styling it

We suggest pairing this wallpaper with furniture that has clean, understated lines so the hand-painted character remains the focal point. Lighter wood finishes such as ash, birch, or pale oak naturally echo the warmth of the cream backdrop, while painted furniture in soft off-white or muted putty tones helps ground the bolder flower tones. For textiles, simple unpatterned fabrics in neutral weaves or soft blush shades allow the magenta, red, and pink petals to carry the room's decorative energy without competing patterns.

Colour combinations

The palette centres on the rich crimson of the poppy, magenta pink, and soft rose, set against a gentle cream base with muted green undertones in the sketched foliage. For surrounding walls, we like pairing this design with warm whites, pale ivory, or soft plaster pinks that pull directly from the floral tones. If you want to introduce a slightly deeper contrast through woodwork or painted cabinetry, a muted olive or soft moss green complements the botanical stems beautifully.
