Wallpaper - Stay Calm

Our Stay Calm wallpaper brings a playful, retro energy into the home, combining bold 1960s and 70s graphic style with an eccentric sense of fun. Designed by HeyMoonly, the illustration features a colourful frog seated peacefully in meditation atop a vibrant toadstool with a red and yellow spotted cap and purple underside. Above, the words "Stay Calm" curve in warm orange lettering, surrounded by friendly smiling purple flowers, a small bee, and sparkling star details against a rich black background. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural, the paper features a subtle surface structure that lends gentle depth to the bold flat lines and saturated palette.

In the room

Because of its high contrast and centred graphic composition, we like this design best as a dedicated focal point on a main wall. It works brilliantly in a teenage room, a creative playroom, or a casual home meditation nook where the mix of serene subject matter and lively colour creates an engaging atmosphere. The solid dark background holds the composition together, making it especially effective on a relatively open wall where the full illustrated scene can be viewed without heavy disruption from tall cupboards or shelving units.

Styling it

With such a distinct retro aesthetic and strong graphic lines, we would lean into simple mid-century or vintage-inspired shapes that echo the illustration's playful spirit. Clean, low-profile furniture in natural warm wood helps ground the deep black backdrop without competing with the bright illustration. To keep the room feeling balanced, pair the wallpaper with unpatterned, solid-colour furnishings and quirky decorative pieces that mirror the curvy forms of the mushroom and lettering.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is anchored by its deep black base, punctuated by vivid pops of citrus yellow, warm orange, cherry red, and rich purple. When decorating the surrounding space, we recommend pulling directly from these accents for smaller elements such as cushions, painted picture frames, or a single bold lamp base. For adjoining walls, softer warm neutrals, muted off-whites, or even a deep charcoal tone will allow the bright graphic artwork to stand out cleanly without overwhelming the room.
