Wallpaper - Cockatoos - Cute Baby Animals Series

Three curious baby cockatoos with soft white feathers and bright yellow crests take centre stage in this playful watercolour-look wallpaper designed by Wai Collective. Set against a light, painterly backdrop enriched with gentle pastel splashes of blue, pink, and green, the composition balances sweet illustrative detail with open space. The expressive character of the birds brings a warm, engaging energy to the wall without overwhelming the room. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper featuring a subtle physical structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully in a nursery, toddler room, or children's playroom. Because the three cockatoos peer out from the lower part of the scene with fluid colour splashes rising above them, the wallpaper works exceptionally well on an accent wall behind a cot, low toy storage, or a reading bench. The generous pale background keeps the visual weight balanced, making it just as suitable for smaller nurseries as it is for larger family play areas. In an art studio or dedicated hobby room, the hand-painted watercolour character adds a touch of creativity without competing with surrounding activities.

Styling it

To complement the lighthearted watercolour style, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with pale, natural timber furniture such as blonde ash or birch. Simple, clean-lined silhouettes keep the focus on the charming bird illustrations, while painted furniture in soft cream or muted chalky finishes creates a calm, cohesive environment.

Soft textiles in unbleached cotton or gentle pastel knits will mirror the delicate paint splatters in the background. We recommend keeping larger storage pieces low along the main feature wall so the cockatoos remain fully in view.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a soft white and cream foundation, enlivened by sunshine yellow crests and delicate washes of pastel pink, sky blue, and leaf green.

For adjoining painted walls and woodwork, a warm off-white or creamy ivory creates a seamless transition that lets the wallpaper mural shine. If you want to introduce more colour into the room, soft pastel accents pulled directly from the artwork—such as a muted powder blue, blush pink, or gentle sage green on doors, shelving, or skirting boards—will tie the entire space together naturally.
