Wallpaper - Royal Birds on White

Created by Farida Zaman, our Royal Birds on White wallpaper brings together charming crowned birds, fluttering butterflies, and playful floral sprigs across a crisp white backdrop. We particularly like the painterly, gouache-inspired feel of the illustration, where warm saffron, soft pink, coral, and pops of turquoise create an inviting, storybook rhythm. The loose scattering of motifs gives the design an airy, lighthearted character that feels wonderfully fresh on the wall. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a handcrafted, artistic warmth to any room.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in nurseries, toddler rooms, and dedicated playrooms where its whimsical, cheerful energy can take centre stage. Because the motifs are spaced across an open white background, the pattern introduces plenty of colour and narrative without making a room feel visually crowded. On a feature wall behind a cot or a low toddler bed, the playful birds naturally draw the eye and create a gentle focal point. In larger play spaces, our mural wallpapers can easily wrap across multiple walls to build an immersive, imaginative environment that feels bright and welcoming throughout the day.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we prefer to let the expressive character of the artwork lead the space while keeping larger furniture relatively grounded. Light, natural wood furniture or clean painted white pieces complement the soft backdrop beautifully without competing with the lively figures.

For surrounding accents, we like picking up on the smaller painted details rather than introducing brand new palettes. Soft woven storage baskets, muted coral or saffron cushions, and simple cotton curtains in warm neutral tones tie the room together naturally. Keeping surrounding patterns minimal allows the illustrated birds, flowers, and butterflies to remain the clear visual story of the room.

Colour combinations

The design features a rich mix of saffron yellow, warm coral, blossom pink, turquoise, and deep berry against a clean white ground. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or woodwork, a soft warm white or pale parchment creates an effortless continuation of the wallpaper's base. If you want to introduce more colour into the surrounding space, a gentle blush pink or a soft sage green drawn from the leafy stems creates a calm, cohesive balance alongside the brighter primary elements.
