Wallpaper - Outdoor Beauties III

Created in collaboration with artist Daphne Brissonnet, our Outdoor Beauties III wallpaper presents an intricately etched butterfly study inspired by classic 18th-century natural history illustrations. Fine ink linework captures ornate Rococo-style scrollwork within the wings, framed by delicate botanical notation and plate numbering against a warm, speckled neutral backdrop. The centered composition gives this design the presence of an archival scientific engraving while maintaining an airy, uncluttered feel across the wall. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it brings a quiet sense of heritage and artistic detail to your interior.

In the room

Because the motif is anchored by a single, highly detailed central illustration surrounded by open space, we especially like this design on an accent wall where the entire etching can be seen without heavy visual obstruction. In a study, home office, or library, it creates an elegant focal point behind a writing desk or low shelving. The warm off-white background and classic subject matter also make it a natural fit for a bedroom behind a headboard or an entryway where guests can appreciate the fine line art up close. In smaller spaces like a powder room, the mural wallpaper format turns a compact wall into an engaging gallery-style feature.

Styling it

We recommend letting the detailed linework stand out by pairing this wallpaper with tailored, understated furnishings. Classic mid-tone wood furniture, such as antique walnut or warm mahogany, complements the historic engraving character of the print. To balance the intricate swirls in the butterfly wings, choose simple textiles like unpatterned linens and matte ceramics. Traditional brass or blackened metal hardware on lighting fixtures and cabinet pulls harmonizes naturally with the vintage ink tones.

Color combinations

The artwork is built around deep charcoal and soft black ink strokes over an antique white, speckled paper-tone ground. Around the wallpaper, we suggest carrying through warm neutrals such as cream, ivory, soft stone, or pale biscuit on adjacent walls and trim. If you want to introduce deeper contrasting tones elsewhere in the room, muted forest greens, deep navy, or rich espresso brown provide a grounded, sophisticated backdrop that lets the illustrated butterfly remain the centerpiece.
