Wallpaper - Rainy Day Paris

Designed by Michael Mullan, our Rainy Day Paris wallpaper brings a charming storybook scene to life through playful collage shapes and mid-century graphic character. The composition features the Eiffel Tower rising into a soft sky dotted with falling blue raindrops, framed by city buildings, stylized birds, and a figure in a bright red coat walking a little dog in a beret. Deep blueberry blues and soft greys ground the light backdrop, while the pop of red adds an energetic focal point. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working wonderfully in children's spaces, from a calm nursery or toddler room to an imaginative playroom or bedroom. Because the motif is structured like a complete illustrated city view, we think it works best on a main feature wall where the height of the Eiffel Tower and the open sky above can be appreciated without too much interruption. In a kids' room or playroom, placing low shelving, a toy chest, or a small cot against the lower portion of the wall still leaves the main figures, falling raindrops, and iconic skyline clearly in view.

Styling it

The 1950s retro illustration style invites simple, cheerful decor that complements the graphic charm of the artwork without competing with it.

• Pair with light or mid-tone wooden furniture, such as natural pine or beech, to keep the space warm, grounded, and child-friendly.
• Choose plain, solid-colour textiles like bedding, rugs, or cushions rather than competing patterned fabrics, letting the storybook illustration remain the centrepiece.
• Introduce small accent accessories in bright primary red to pick up on the coat in the artwork and tie the room together naturally.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is built around a gentle palette of light greys, soft blues, and deep blueberry tones, accented by a striking burst of bright red and clean white highlights. When planning adjacent walls and woodwork, we suggest pulling from the softer background tones. A muted off-white, light cloudy grey, or gentle powder blue on neighbouring walls creates a harmonious, restful envelope around the mural wallpapers. For skirting boards and window frames, a crisp white keeps the overall look fresh and bright.
