Wallpaper - Moon Moth VI

Created by Yvette St. Amant, our Moon Moth VI wallpaper brings a celestial, nature-inspired focal point to interior walls. The design centres on a large, symmetrically rendered brown moth detailed with fine vein-like linework and circular eye patterns across its wings. Positioned directly above, a warm apricot-toned circular moon is overlaid with subtle grey leaf sprigs, flanked by golden-amber foliage, delicate botanical buds, and stylised starry motifs against a solid black backdrop. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this wallpaper is easy to hang and creates an immediate sense of warmth and intrigue.

In the room

Because the composition is built around a bold, central motif with strong contrast between the deep black ground and the golden elements, we especially like this design on a main feature wall. In a bedroom, it sits naturally behind a headboard where the upward reach of the moon and foliage draws the eye vertically. We also see it working exceptionally well in a study, home office, or living room, where the darker ground creates an intimate, grounded atmosphere.

For room proportions, an uninterrupted wall gives the full symmetrical layout the space it needs to anchor the space. In smaller rooms, such as a cosy study or guest bedroom, the deep palette wraps the room in a rich, enclosing ambience without feeling cluttered, as the artwork remains clearly defined and centred.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we suggest balancing the dark, graphic background with materials that echo its warm, earthy undertones. Warm-toned timbers such as walnut, teak, or stained oak complement the rich brown and ochre details within the moth's wings.

To keep the focal point on the wall mural, pair it with low-profile, clean-lined furniture rather than heavy, ornate pieces. Simple upholstery in muted linen or textured woven fabrics keeps the room feeling calm and refined, while subtle brass or antiqued bronze accents in lighting or hardware can softly pick up the warm glow of the painted moon and stars.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper's palette is grounded in a solid black background, layered with warm apricot, golden amber, rich chestnut browns, soft grey, and muted pink botanical stems.

When choosing colours for neighbouring walls, woodwork, or built-in shelving, we recommend pulling directly from these warm secondary tones. A muted, dusky terracotta or warm caramel on adjacent walls softens the transition from the black ground. Alternatively, a deep charcoal or off-black paint on surrounding trim creates a seamless, moody look that allows the glowing amber and apricot details of the wallpaper to stand out clearly.
