Wallpaper - Willow & Birds, Pistachio

Created by Irinia Chikati, our Willow & Birds, Pistachio wallpaper brings a delicate, nature-inspired scene into the home with graceful movement and soft colour. Small birds with detailed brown, white, and black feathers take flight among cascading willow foliage, rendered with a light, watercolour-like touch. The delicate leaves layer soft sky blue and earthy brown tones over a pale pistachio green backdrop, creating a gentle visual rhythm across the wall. Printed to order as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals, our wallpapers feature a subtle paper texture that gives the botanical artwork a beautifully balanced, painted look.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in spaces where you want a restful, welcoming atmosphere. In a bedroom, placing the motif on the wall behind the bed allows the cascading willow branches to frame the sleeping space naturally without overwhelming the room. The airy composition and soft vertical drift of the branches also suit entryways, hallways, and living rooms, where the pattern provides visual interest across longer wall areas or around doorways. For a quiet study or guest room, the gentle contrast between the sky blue leaves and pale green background creates an open, tranquil feel that does not distract from daily routines.

Styling it

Because the pattern carries a rhythmic, classic character reminiscent of chinoiserie, we like pairing it with furniture that has clean or gently curved silhouettes. Warm wood furniture, such as mid-tone oak or walnut, grounds the lighter tones in the motif and echoes the earthy brown details in the willow branches and birds.

To keep the focus on the artwork, we would choose simple woven textiles in off-white, oat, or soft grey rather than competing patterns. Understated brass or antiqued metal hardware on lamps and cabinetry complements the vintage elegance of the foliage while maintaining a calm, cohesive setting.

Colour combinations

The palette within the design combines a soft pistachio green base with delicate sky blue, muted earthy brown, and subtle black and white feather accents.

When choosing paint colours and finishes for adjacent walls, skirting boards, and doors, we suggest leaning into soft, warm whites or creamy neutrals that allow the pistachio tone to transition smoothly across the room. If you prefer deeper contrast, a rich muted olive or soft slate blue drawn from the foliage makes a striking choice for built-in shelving, panelling, or accent seating.
