Wallpaper - Chicken in the Sun II

Our Chicken in the Sun II wallpaper by Nathan Larson brings a lively, countryside feel into the home through a photographic close-up of a white chicken in warm sunlight. What catches our attention is the vivid contrast between the bright red comb, the sharp orange eye, and the crisp white feathers set against a soft, earthy brown backdrop. It is a photographic mural wallpaper that adds immediate character without feeling overly busy. Printed as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle structure in the wallpaper paper, our wallpapers are straightforward to hang on your wall.

In the room

We see this photographic design working particularly well in a kitchen or dining room where its natural warmth and rural subject feel right at home. Because the motif is a distinct, large-scale portrait with a soft-focus background, it thrives on an accent wall where the composition can be appreciated from across the room. In a dining area, positioning the mural along an open wall creates a welcoming focal point that naturally anchors the space. In a kitchen, keeping the wall relatively clear of tall wall cabinets gives the bird's profile and the gentle daylight within the image room to stand out.

Styling it

The farmhouse character of this wallpaper pairs naturally with traditional, country-inspired, and rustic interior styles.

• Pair the earthy tones of the background with warm, natural timber furniture such as a reclaimed pine dining table or rustic wooden shelving to reinforce the countryside aesthetic.
• Balance the detailed focal point of the photography by keeping surrounding surfaces relatively simple, choosing plain ceramics or matte stoneware rather than high-gloss modern finishes.
• Draw on the crisp white of the feathers with painted cabinetry or classic tongue-and-groove panelling below dado height to frame the mural cleanly.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on clean white, deep earthy browns, and vivid accents of bright red and warm orange. To complement the design, we suggest pairing it with soft, warm off-whites, creamy neutrals, or gentle muted beiges on adjacent walls and woodwork. For a richer, more grounded look, deeper shades of chestnut brown or warm terracotta can echo the earthy background and highlight details in the portrait.
