Wallpaper - Ibis Light Lilac

Created by designer Nina Leth, our Ibis Light Lilac wallpaper combines graceful ibis birds with stylised botanical motifs set against a subtle, textile-inspired woven background texture. The composition brings together curved reeds, imaginative floral shapes, and delicate foliage in soft tones of muted slate blue, gentle lilac, and cool grey neutrals. Because the tonal contrast remains low across the entire design, the intricate pattern creates a calm, decorative atmosphere rather than overwhelming the eye. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical paper structure.

In the room

We especially like this design for spaces where you want visual detail without high chromatic contrast. In a bedroom or dressing room, the gentle tonal palette creates a serene, enveloping feel across all four walls or behind a headboard. The repeating rhythm of the standing birds and tall foliage also works naturally in a living room, where the design provides an elegant backdrop behind lower furniture without feeling crowded.

For a powder room, nursery, or dedicated home office, the scale of the pattern offers plenty of graphic interest up close while staying soft from a distance. Because the tonal transitions between the background and botanical illustrations are understated, you can easily wrap this wallpaper around alcoves, corners, or full rooms without creating visual clutter.

Styling it

The heritage-inspired botanical illustration and textile-like visual background make this wallpaper easy to pair with both classic and contemporary interiors.

• Pair with painted furniture in chalky off-whites, cool dove greys, or muted charcoal to anchor the room without competing with the detailed pattern.
• Incorporate matte ceramic lamps, soft wool rugs, or woven linen cushions to complement the gentle visual texture of the wallpaper.
• Choose dark or muted timber finishes, such as smoked oak or antique mahogany, if you want to bring a touch of traditional warmth to the cool slate and lilac backdrop.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is built around soft lilac, slate blue, and pale greyish neutrals. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or cabinetry, we recommend working with cool off-whites, chalky stone greys, or deep inky navies.

If you prefer a softer, tonal look, painting adjacent skirting boards and doors in a muted slate or lavender-grey creates a seamless, considered transition. For a slightly bolder contrast that still feels balanced, accents in deep charcoal or dark indigo pick up on the shadowy contours in the botanical foliage.
