Wallpaper - Birds Flying High, Lilac

Our Birds Flying High, Lilac wallpaper by Lisa Wirenfelt brings a dreamy, graphic rhythm to the wall. Stylised white birds with rounded, cloud-like wings float across a soft pastel lilac backdrop, scattered in varied sizes to give the composition an airy sense of gentle movement. Delicate black spots and tiny orange beaks add charming graphic contrast to the soft shapes. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this design brings a playful, contemporary character to family spaces.

In the room

We especially like this design in nurseries, children's bedrooms, and playrooms, where its whimsical composition adds lighthearted energy without overwhelming the space. The open lilac background creates a relaxed visual environment, while the scattered birds provide plenty of playful detail at eye level. In a toddler room, it works wonderfully across an accent wall behind a cot or low shelving, or wrapped around multiple walls to create an immersive, storybook feel. The pattern also sits comfortably in a family bathroom, where the clean white bird silhouettes bring a fresh, graphic lift to the walls.

Styling it

The clean illustration style and soft pastel palette pair naturally with simple, warm interior choices:

• Balance the lilac backdrop with light wood furniture, such as natural ash or pale pine, to keep the space feeling bright and grounded.
• Echo the white silhouette of the birds through crisp painted storage, plain cotton bedding, or a simple woven rug to maintain visual balance across the room.
• Bring in small accents that pick up on the warm orange details of the beaks, using terracotta plant pots, soft peach textiles, or mustard yellow lighting.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a gentle pastel lilac ground, punctuated by crisp white silhouettes, delicate black details, and tiny touches of orange. For surrounding walls and woodwork, soft off-whites, chalky creams, and muted linen tones keep the focus on the pattern. If you prefer more colour, pale butter yellows, dusty peach, or muted lavender on adjacent painted walls will harmonise effortlessly with the wallpaper's pastel base.
