Wallpaper - Graceful Peony

Our Graceful Peony wallpaper, created in collaboration with Kristy Rice, centres on a large white peony rendered with the soft, fluid character of a watercolour painting. Delicate grey and blush-pink lines trace the layers of petals, opening outward from a warm yellow centre detailed with fine red accents. Rich green leaves with subtle veining and warm brown edges frame the bloom, set against an abstract backdrop of blended greens, pale beige, and soft blue washes. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this floral mural brings an artistic, botanical presence into the home.

In the room

Because the main bloom has such an expansive, painterly presence, we see this working particularly well as an accent wall in a bedroom or a living room. On a wide wall behind a headboard or a main sofa, the full scale of the peony and its softly drifting background washes have space to breathe without feeling crowded. The earthy, muted palette also sits comfortably in quieter areas of the home, such as a dedicated meditation space or a reading corner, where the gentle contrast between the eggshell white petals and the abstract background provides visual interest without dominating the entire room.

Styling it

To let the watercolour detail remain the primary focal point, we suggest pairing this design with furniture that has clean, classic lines and minimal visual weight. Southern traditional and heritage-inspired interiors work naturally alongside the botanical theme, especially when anchored by painted wooden furniture in soft off-white or warm, muted tones.

When choosing textiles, smooth woven fabrics in pale cream, soft sage, or muted blue echo the painterly background washes. Keeping decorative accents simple, such as unadorned ceramic vessels or subtle brass details, ensures the delicate line work of the flower takes centre stage.

Colour combinations

The palette begins with the eggshell white of the petals, balanced by soft grey, faint pink, rich botanical greens, and an earthy mix of beige and pale blue in the background. Around the wallpaper, we recommend working with adjacent walls painted in warm off-white, soft stone, or pale biscuit to let the mural wallpaper transition smoothly into the rest of the space. Muted moss green or dusty blue drawn from the background washes also make handsome accents for painted woodwork, upholstery, or curtains.
