Wallpaper - Kites

Created by Michael Clark, our Kites wallpaper captures the joyful movement of kites drifting across a bright, cloud-brushed sky. Painterly strokes and soft watercolor-like textures give the sky backdrop a lively, airy quality, while diamond, box, and novelty kites in vivid shades of orange, golden yellow, warm coral, and deep red add striking geometric rhythm. Long tails dotted with colorful bows twist throughout the composition, creating a dynamic sense of upward flight. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure that brings warmth to any room.

In the room

We love how this pattern brings a sense of open-air freedom indoors. Because the kites soar across a soft blue and white expanse, the design naturally lifts the visual height of a space. It works wonderfully in a nursery, toddler room, or playroom, creating a cheerful atmosphere without overwhelming the senses. For a truly imaginative setting, we also love seeing this design applied to ceilings, transforming the overhead plane into a sunlit sky filled with colorful kites. Across an accent wall in a kids' bedroom, the flowing tails draw the eye upward and keep the room feeling energetic and bright.

Styling it

To balance the animated movement and vivid tones of the kites, we suggest pairing this design with simple furniture lines and quiet, natural finishes. Light painted furniture in soft off-white or gentle cream keeps the focus on the artwork while maintaining a lighthearted, uncluttered feel. If you prefer natural wood, lighter species such as birch or light ash bring warmth without clashing with the sky tones. Soft textiles in unbleached cotton or brushed canvas work beautifully to complement the painterly texture on the walls, grounding the playful energy of the motif.

Color combinations

The primary backdrop of this wallpaper is a clear, painterly sky blue blended with soft white clouds. The kites introduce warm, energetic accents of marigold yellow, burnt orange, terracotta, coral pink, and deep plum-red, with small touches of royal blue along the tail bows. When choosing surrounding paint colors, soft warm whites and muted pale sky tones on adjacent walls allow the mural to be the centerpiece. If you want to highlight the warmer details, subtle apricot, pale buttercup, or muted terracotta accents on cushions, bedding, or storage bins create a harmonious, cohesive palette.
