Wallpaper - Earthy Anemones

Our Earthy Anemones wallpaper, created in collaboration with artist Shirley Novak, brings an expressive floral still life directly to the wall. Bold, visible brushstrokes define anemone blossoms in clean white, warm orange, soft pink, and muted coral red, arranged with deep leafy stems and yellow centres over a calm artichoke green background. What we especially like about this design is its painterly energy, where thick impasto strokes give the botanical forms an immediate, artistic presence. As with all Wallism mural wallpapers, each order is made to measure and produced on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the composition has an open, dynamic flow and generous areas of soft green background, this design works beautifully across both full rooms and dedicated feature walls. In a living room or dining room, we would give the design a wide, uninterrupted wall behind a low sideboard or sofa so the full movement of the floral arrangement can be appreciated.

The painterly floral motif also sits comfortably in a bedroom or study, where the earthy green backdrop creates a grounded atmosphere while the colourful petals add warmth. In an entryway or hallway, where walls are often viewed from closer proximity, the expressive brush marks and fine details around the flower centres offer rewarding visual depth.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the central focal point, we suggest balancing the expressive floral forms with simple, grounded furnishings. Mid-toned or warm natural woods, such as walnut or oiled oak, complement the earthy palette without competing with the dynamic brushwork.

For surrounding soft furnishings, unpatterned textiles in woven linen or matte wool help anchor the space. Choosing plain drapery and simple upholstered seating allows the rich variety of botanical colours on the wall to stand out clearly.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built on an artichoke green ground, accented with crisp white, bright orange, soft coral pink, warm red, and touches of chartreuse yellow.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, and large surfaces, we suggest drawing directly from the softer notes within the motif:

• Muted sage or artichoke green on adjacent walls creates a seamless, tonal wrap that ties the whole room together.
• Off-white or soft warm cream on skirting boards and door frames echoes the paler petals and keeps the borders fresh.
• Warm terracotta, rust, or ochre accents in cushions or ceramics provide a direct conversation with the orange and red blossoms.
