Wallpaper - Spiced Nature XI

Created by Lisa Audit, our Spiced Nature XI wallpaper presents an elegant horizontal row of illustrated bird feathers set against a soft, wood-grained backdrop with delicate script along the base. The design showcases watercolours with fine ornamental detailing, combining rich terracotta, warm rust, soft teal, dusty blue, and earthy browns. Each feather displays distinct patterns, from speckled textures to gold-toned filigree accents. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free material, this design brings an artistic, botanical touch to interior walls with subtle physical paper texture.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully as a focal point across a main living room wall, behind a bed in a restful bedroom, or along a study wall where its detailed craftsmanship can be appreciated up close. Because the composition is arranged in a clear horizontal sequence, it suits wider, uninterrupted wall spaces where the full collection of feathers can stretch across the room without being obscured by tall furniture. In a hallway or staircase landing, the rhythmic spacing of the feathers creates a gentle sense of movement along the wall.

Styling it

To complement the painterly character and natural motifs of this design, we suggest pairing it with furniture that echoes its earthy warmth. Natural timber pieces, particularly in mid-toned woods such as walnut or warm oak, sit very naturally alongside the background tones.

For soft furnishings, textured textiles in muted terracotta or washed linen in teal shades help draw out the richer pigment notes from the feathers without overpowering the quiet elegance of the artwork. Keep wall decorations on neighbouring surfaces minimal to allow the mural wallpaper to serve as the primary artistic statement.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper centres on an earthy palette of rust red, terracotta, soft teal, slate blue, and warm ochre against a neutral timber-toned background. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or large decorative pieces, we recommend picking up on the softer undertones:

• Warm neutrals, soft stone, or pale biscuit on adjoining walls to maintain an airy, cohesive backdrop.
• Muted teal or deep slate for painted trims, panelling, or accent furniture to echo the cooler feathers.
• Rich terracotta or burnt cinnamon in smaller accents to bring out the vibrant warmth in the pattern.
