Wallpaper - Falconiformes

Our Falconiformes wallpaper, designed by Julia Dreams, features an illustrated repeat of owls rendered in graphic, monochromatic tonal gray and soft smoke shades across a neutral warm stone ground. What we particularly like about this design is the balance between stillness and motion, alternating between perched owls gazing forward and owls captured in mid-flight with outstretched wings. The expressive brushstrokes and subtle block-print-inspired feel give the motif a classic, storybook quality that feels both calm and artistic. Like all of our wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working beautifully in a home library, study, or bedroom where its calm, reflective mood can set the tone for the entire room. Because the motif is spaced comfortably across a neutral background without feeling overcrowded, it works well across all four walls in an intimate space, as well as on a dedicated accent wall behind a desk or headboard. In a living room or teenager's room, the open repeat ensures the wall never feels busy, allowing artwork or lower furniture to sit naturally in front of the pattern without competing with the soaring owls.

Styling it

The heritage and English country character of the design invites furniture with visual substance and warmth. We would pair our wallpaper with rich, darker wood tones like antique walnut or deep oak, alongside classic upholstery in soft wool, velvet, or natural linen. Because the motif is entirely monochromatic, you can introduce tailored architectural details such as traditional painted wainscoting, matte black metal accents, or warm brass lighting to accentuate its classic character without overwhelming the delicate feather illustrations.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built on a quiet palette of smoke gray, charcoal, and soft pale gray set against a warm, neutral off-white backdrop. When building a color scheme around the room, we suggest pulling in complementary muted tones like warm ecru, deep forest green, slate blue, or rich espresso brown on woodwork, baseboards, and surrounding textiles to create an enveloping and grounded atmosphere.
