Wallpaper - In Flight II

Our In Flight II wallpaper brings the open, fluid motion of birds moving across a soft sky directly into the home. Created by artist Chris Paschke, this design pairs delicate watercolor brushwork with an airy palette of sky blue, sand, and pale pastel tones. What we particularly appreciate about this mural wallpaper is its sense of rhythm and spaciousness; the loose, calligraphic silhouettes of the birds appear to drift naturally across the wall rather than following a rigid grid. Like all of our wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, creating a light, artistic presence on any wall.

In the room

Because of its open composition and gentle contrast, this design works wonderfully across wide, uninterrupted walls where the full horizon and flight path can unfold. In a bedroom, we like positioning it on the wall behind the headboard to set a quiet, uncluttered tone for the entire room. In a living room or study, placing the mural along a main feature wall adds visual depth without overwhelming the space or competing with surrounding art. The gentle, upward movement of the motif also makes it a compelling choice for higher ceilings, staircases, or entryway walls, where the vertical flow feels completely natural. For smaller areas like a dressing room, library, or powder room, the pale sky tones help keep the perimeter feeling light and expansive.

Styling it

The organic, painted character of this design naturally aligns with contemporary and organic modern interiors. To complement the fluid brushstrokes without crowding the wall, we recommend keeping nearby furniture low-profile and thoughtfully proportioned.

• Choose furniture in pale or warm wood tones, such as natural ash, white oak, or bleached birch, which pick up the warm sand notes in the background.
• Select upholstery and soft furnishings in textured, neutral fabrics like oatmeal linen or washed cotton to echo the soft, matte feel of the watercolor wash.
• Incorporate understated ceramic accents or simple, rounded stone pieces that mirror the organic, handcrafted lines of the artwork without introducing harsh geometric contrasts.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built around a gentle foundation of pale sky blue, subtle pastel undertones, and warm sandy neutrals. When choosing colors for adjoining walls and woodwork, we suggest pulling directly from these light, desaturated shades. Soft off-whites, warm bone, and pale linen tones on baseboards and adjacent painted walls create a seamless, cohesive transition. If you prefer a subtle contrast, consider pairing the wallpaper with muted slate blue, soft clay, or warm taupe accents on larger furniture or textiles to anchor the room while letting the light sky motif remain the focal point.
