Wallpaper - Tribal Lilies I

Our Tribal Lilies I wallpaper brings a soft, painterly floral composition to the wall through large, expressive lily forms rendered with a watercolor-like appearance. Created by Chris Paschke, the design blends rich burnt orange, warm apricot, and deep earthy terracotta tones with delicate hints of olive green and subtle yellow accents in the stamen details. Fluid color washes bleed gently into one another, while fine, calligraphic contour lines loosely define the petals and give the artwork an airy, abstract rhythm. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an inviting and artistic focal point for the home.

In the room

Because of the generous scale of the floral forms and the soft, expansive nature of the watercolor washes, we see this working particularly well on a main feature wall in a bedroom or living room. In a bedroom, placing our wallpaper behind the bed creates an enveloping, warm backdrop that does not overwhelm the space, thanks to the soft transitions between shades. In a larger living room, giving the design an open, uninterrupted wall allows the gentle movement and sweeping strokes of the petals to be appreciated from across the room. The warm terracotta and orange tones also respond beautifully to shifting natural light, looking bright and luminous during the daytime and taking on a cozier, richer feel under soft evening lamplight.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we prefer pairing it with quiet, understated elements that let the expressive brushwork remain the center of attention. Furniture in warm natural woods or simple painted finishes complements the earthy undertones of the wallpaper without competing with its movement. For upholstery and textiles, smooth woven fabrics in neutral off-white, oatmeal, or muted taupe help balance the vibrancy of the orange washes. Keeping surrounding decorative objects relatively minimal and sculptural allows the artistic character of the wall to stand out naturally.

Color combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centers on rich burnt orange, warm blush, and terracotta, balanced by touches of muted olive and gentle yellow highlights. To create a cohesive look across adjacent painted walls and woodwork, we suggest drawing out the softer background tones with warm cream, sand, or light biscuity neutrals. If you prefer a moodier, more enveloping space, deeper tones like muted olive green, warm rust, or earthy chestnut on trim and cabinetry tie in seamlessly with the darker accents in the floral motif.
