Wallpaper - Chicken in the Sun I

Our Chicken in the Sun I wallpaper brings an intimate, photographic study of farm life right into your home. Captured by Nathan Larson, the design presents a striking close-up profile of a white rooster lit by warm natural sunlight. Vivid red combs and wattles contrast against crisp white plumage, a sharp yellow beak, and an expressive amber-orange eye, while the softly blurred background in muted earthy browns and greens keeps the focus squarely on the bird. Printed as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical texture in the paper, this piece introduces rustic warmth and distinct character to any accent wall.

In the room

Because this is a large-scale photographic mural wallpaper, we see it working exceptionally well as a dedicated feature wall where the portrait has room to be appreciated up close. In an open-plan kitchen or next to a dining room table, the composition brings immediate warmth and life without overwhelming the space. The soft depth of field behind the rooster ensures the background recedes naturally, which helps smaller eating nooks or breakfast corners feel grounded rather than crowded.

We would position this design on an uninterrupted wall where cabinetry or tall shelving does not cut across the subject's head and eye. When natural daylight hits the wall from a nearby window, the photographic highlights across the white feathers and bright red wattles feel especially vivid and true to life.

Styling it

The rustic photographic character of our wallpaper pairs naturally with relaxed country, modern farmhouse, and warm eclectic interiors. We recommend keeping nearby cabinetry and major furniture simple so the bold portrait remains the focal element of the room.

• Pair with warm natural woods, such as honey pine, reclaimed barnwood, or natural white oak, to echo the golden and earthy undertones in the lighting.
• Select matte black, antique brass, or cast-iron hardware to complement the crisp contrast and rustic roots of the imagery.
• Choose simple, unpatterned ceramics and neutral stoneware across surrounding tables and countertops so the visual detail stays on the wall.

Color combinations

The central palette within our wallpaper revolves around clean feather whites, bold crimson reds, golden yellows, and rich backdrop tones of warm olive green and soil brown.

To build a balanced room scheme, we suggest pulling from the backdrop tones for adjacent painted surfaces. Soft off-whites, warm linen tones, or muted olive and moss greens on surrounding walls create a seamless, enveloping atmosphere. For trim or lower kitchen cabinets, a deep espresso brown or a muted terracotta works beautifully to anchor the vibrant red accents of the rooster's comb.
