Wallpaper - Crow and Golden Sun

Our Crow and Golden Sun wallpaper brings a bold, painterly presence to the wall, pairing detailed wildlife portraiture with graphic colour contrast. Created by Kate Jarvik Birch, the design centres on an expressive crow rendered in rich midnight blues, deep black, and pale slate highlights, set against a warm golden halo on a teal background. The painted brushwork gives the plumage distinct visual texture, while the glowing sun disk creates an arresting focal point. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design is straightforward to hang and adds an artistic, contemporary edge to any interior.

In the room

Because of the strong central composition and prominent circular motif, we see this design working best on an uninterrupted feature wall where the entire portrait has room to command attention. It brings character to a living room behind a low-backed sofa, or as a statement backdrop in a home office, study, or library where a focused, creative atmosphere is welcome. In a bedroom, placing the design behind the headboard allows the deep teal and golden tones to anchor the space. In rooms with ample daylight, the subtle tonal variations in the dark feathers and the teal ground come through clearly, while lower evening light enhances the warm glow of the golden sun.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the primary focus, we suggest balancing the wall with furniture that has clean, grounded silhouettes. Dark wood furniture or matte black metal accents echo the deeper tones in the crow's plumage and frame the space without competing for visual weight.

For surrounding soft furnishings, simple woven textures in neutral tones or deep navy keep the aesthetic refined. If you want to introduce additional warmth, decorative touches in brushed brass or muted ochre naturally reflect the golden sun without overwhelming the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built on a base of rich teal, deep midnight blue, soft sky blue, charcoal black, and a radiant ochre gold. When decorating around it, you can lean into deep teal or inky charcoal paint on neighbouring walls to create a cohesive, moody palette. If you prefer higher contrast and a lighter feel, soft off-white or pale stone on adjacent walls will allow the mural wallpapers to stand out crisply. Warm mustard, amber, or tan leather accents also work naturally by picking up the golden centrepiece.
