Wallpaper - Bird and Leaves I

Our Bird and Leaves I wallpaper brings a delicate, hand-painted aesthetic to the wall, featuring an artwork created by Chris Paschke. The design centres on a perched bird painted in warm orange-red tones with dark black tail feathers, resting quietly on an open branch with softly detailed green leaves. Set against a clean white backdrop, the watercolour and ink-inspired brushwork retains an airy, uncluttered feel with plenty of negative space. We produce all our wallpapers made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical paper structure, making it straightforward to introduce a refined botanical motif to your interior.

In the room

We particularly like this design in spaces where its open composition and quiet focus can be fully appreciated. In a bedroom or guest room, it works beautifully on the wall behind a bed, offering a calming focal point without visual clutter. For a home office, study, or living room, the generous white background ensures the wall remains light while giving the bird motif room to breathe. Because the composition relies on open space rather than a dense repeating pattern, we find it works best on an accent wall where larger furniture will not entirely obscure the central branch and bird.

Styling it

To balance the delicate watercolour detailing, we suggest keeping surrounding furnishings relatively simple and grounded. Warm wood tones, such as mid-tone oak or cherry, naturally complement the earthy terracotta and rust tones in the bird's plumage. In living or reading areas, pairing the wallpaper with understated upholstery in oatmeal or soft linen helps maintain an airy, considered feel. You can also introduce small matte black decorative accents to echo the dark ink details in the bird's tail and wing tips, creating a cohesive dialogue between the wall mural and the rest of the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by the contrast between its crisp white background and the focused palette of warm reddish-orange, earthy rust, soft leafy greens, and deep black. When choosing paint colours for adjacent walls or woodwork, soft warm off-whites provide a clean, continuous backdrop that lets the motif stand out. If you prefer more colour in the surrounding space, muted sage greens or warm terracotta tones draw directly from the painted leaves and feathers, creating a cohesive and gently grounded environment.
