Wallpaper - Bird and Leaves II

Our Bird and Leaves II wallpaper brings together fluid brushwork and open white space, created by artist Chris Paschke. The motif features a small bird with a black head and back paired with a warm reddish-orange breast, balanced quietly on a slender branch amongst soft green foliage. The watercolour-like wash and gentle ink detailing give the composition an airy, minimalist presence that lets your walls breathe. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the design uses a clean white background with generous negative space, we see this working particularly well in rooms where you want a calm visual focal point without overpowering the space. In a bedroom or guest room, placing the mural wallpaper on the wall behind the headboard creates an understated accent wall that feels light and restorative. It also works beautifully in a study, home office, or reading corner, where the delicate balance between the detailed bird and soft green leaves offers quiet visual interest during the day. In an entryway or hallway, the open composition helps maintain a sense of lightness across narrow or fragmented wall sections.

Styling it

We recommend keeping the surrounding interior restrained to mirror the Asian zen and contemporary character of the artwork. Low-profile furniture with clean, simple silhouettes complements the airy nature of the design without competing for attention.

When choosing materials, warm natural wood such as ash, light oak, or bamboo pairs naturally with the earthy tones of the branch and bird. Smooth ceramic accents and unadorned textiles in quiet, neutral weaves will keep the room feeling balanced, allowing the subtle brushstrokes of the wallpaper to remain the clear focal point.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres around soft sage green leaves, the crisp black and warm reddish-orange of the bird, and a pure white background.

To create a cohesive scheme around our wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with off-white or soft warm white on adjacent painted walls and woodwork to maintain the open, airy atmosphere. Muted sage green or moss tones work well on larger textiles such as throws or curtains, subtly echoing the painted foliage. For a small touch of warmth, you can introduce accents in terracotta, rust, or burnt orange that pick up the reddish breast of the bird.
