Wallpaper - Poppies in the Sunlight

In our Poppies in the Sunlight wallpaper, artist Danhui Nai brings together a classic floral still life with a gentle, sunlit atmosphere. A clear glass vase filled with vibrant carmine red poppies with dark centres rests upon a warm wooden surface, set against a light pastel backdrop with soft green foliage visible beyond the window. The painted visual texture and delicate brushwork give the composition an artistic, peaceful character with a touch of nostalgic warmth. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, and designed to be straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because this is an artistic still life composition with a clear central focus, we see our design working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall in a dining room, living room or guest room. In a dining area, positioning the wallpaper on the main wall creates an inviting focal point behind a dining table, where the warm light and floral details can be appreciated at eye level. In a living room, placing the mural behind a low-backed sofa allows the upper portion with its soft daylight and delicate foliage to remain in view, giving the space an airy, tranquil feel without overwhelming the room.

Styling it

When styling around this mural wallpaper, we suggest balancing its painterly character with timeless, understated furniture.

• Warm wood furniture, such as natural oak, elm or warm-toned vintage pieces, echoes the wooden surface depicted in the artwork and reinforces its grounded, welcoming feel.
• Upholstery and soft furnishings in soft, unpatterned fabrics allow the vivid red blooms to remain the undisputed focal point of the room.
• Heritage-inspired or traditional decorative accents, like simple glass or ceramic pieces, complement the classic still life aesthetic without competing with the painted details.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on rich carmine red and deep floral centres, balanced by light pastel background tones, soft warm wood notes, and gentle touches of leafy green.

To build a cohesive palette around this design, we recommend looking to the quieter background hues for adjacent painted walls. Soft off-whites, warm pale neutrals, or very gentle muted greens create a subtle, harmonious backdrop that lets the carmine red poppies stand out. For trim, skirting, or larger cabinetry, warm creams or deep muted earthy tones provide a grounded contrast that pairs naturally with the warmth of the composition.
