Wallpaper - Papillion II, Tomato & Purple

Our Papillion II, Tomato & Purple wallpaper brings together vivid cherry red butterflies, purple blooms with bright yellow centres, and fresh green foliage set against a dark, contrasting backdrop. Designed by RNM Arts, the motif pairs an ink-drawn character with bold, graphic shapes and crisp black and white accents along the wings. The interplay between the deep background and energetic botanical elements gives the repeat a lively rhythm that instantly draws attention across an interior. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working particularly well in spaces where you want visual energy and personality to lead the scheme. In a dining room or living room, hanging the pattern across a main feature wall creates an immediate visual anchor, allowing the vivid reds and purples to frame a dining table or seating arrangement. Because the contrast between the dark ground and the floral elements is distinct, the motif also sits comfortably in more intimate residential settings such as a dressing room, home office, or teenage room. In a dressing space or study, the dense botanical rhythm adds depth without requiring an abundance of wall art.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we prefer balancing the expressive pattern with clean-lined furniture so the wallpaper remains the clear focus of the room.

• Pair the wallpaper with dark-stained timber or painted black furniture to echo the deep backdrop and ground the playful motif.
• Introduce upholstery or cushions in solid, unpatterned fabrics that pick up the warm red or purple tones from the print.
• Choose lighting with simple profiles and warm illumination, which softens the contrast between the dark ground and the vibrant butterflies during the evening.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a palette of cherry red, rich purple, sunny yellow, and leaf green against a dark background. When planning adjacent surfaces, we suggest working with muted charcoal or off-black on adjoining walls or woodwork for an immersive, enveloping feel. If you prefer a lighter contrast, warm off-white or soft putty on architraves and skirtings helps the vivid botanical colours stand out cleanly. For accent furnishings, bringing in deliberate touches of mustard yellow or deep plum draws out the finer floral details in the wallpaper.
