Wallpaper - Found A Way Out

Created by Kate Jarvik Birch, our Found A Way Out wallpaper brings a playful, artistic character to the wall with an inquisitive ginger tabby cat peering through a torn paper opening. The artwork features a hand-painted look, rich with warm ginger, terracotta, cream, and deep brown brushstrokes, contrasted by wide, luminous green eyes and a pale, cool blue background. As with all Wallism wallpapers, this mural wallpaper is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because of its expressive focal point, we see this wall mural working particularly well as an accent wall where the motif can command attention. In a bedroom, hallway, playroom, or home office, placing the cat's gaze on an open wall area allows the trompe-l'œil character of the torn paper to feel deliberate and engaging. We suggest keeping larger, taller furniture away from the centre of the design so the full expression and painted details remain visible.

Styling it

To complement the playful yet artistic nature of the design, we would pair it with simple, warm interior elements that do not compete for attention. Light or mid-toned warm woods in furniture pieces harmonise naturally with the ginger and honey tones of the cat's fur. Choosing understated, solid-colour upholstery or bedlinen ensures the wall remains the standout feature, while minimalist decorative accents let the illustration's charm lead the room.

Colour combinations

The design centres around rich, warm ginger, chestnut brown, and soft peach tones, framed by cool torn-grey edges and a pale sky-blue field. For surrounding walls and woodwork, soft off-whites, warm creams, or gentle muted greys create a balanced backdrop. If you prefer to draw out the warmer notes, earthy terracotta accents or muted olive greens echo the warm coat and striking eye colour beautifully.
