Wallpaper - Flying Whale & Air Balloons

Our Flying Whale & Air Balloons wallpaper brings a gentle sense of story to the wall, featuring a smiling light blue whale floating through a soft sky beneath three pastel balloons in blue, beige, and grey. Delicate white clouds and small beige stars surround the crowned character, while the soft jade green undertones and airy background keep the entire scene open and tranquil. We produce our wallpapers made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, giving children's spaces a distinct decorative feature that remains calm and easy to live with.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a nursery, toddler room, or young child's bedroom where you want an imaginative motif that does not overwhelm the space. Because the illustration has generous breathing room around the central whale and floating balloons, it works wonderfully across an uninterrupted main wall behind a cot or toddler bed. In a smaller nursery, the soft pastel palette and open sky background help maintain a light visual feel rather than closing the room in.

Styling it

To complement the lighthearted Scandinavian character of the illustration, we would keep the surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Light, natural wood finishes such as pale birch or beech pair naturally with the soft beige accents in the stars and balloons. For textiles, quiet neutrals, muted cream bedding, or soft jade green accessories help draw out the tones in the artwork without competing with the central illustration.

Colour combinations

The motif is built around a gentle palette of light blue, soft jade green, pale grey, warm beige, and white. Around the room, we would lean into matching off-white or soft warm grey walls to let the mural wallpaper transition smoothly into the rest of the space. For painted furniture or shelving, a muted stone beige or a dusty pastel blue creates a harmonious, cohesive environment.
