Wallpaper - Parrot Paradise II

Designed by Katie Pertiet, our Parrot Paradise II wallpaper combines vivid macaws and parrots with an intricately drawn historic 18th-century world map background. The vintage cartographic backdrop features aged parchment tones, sepia script, navigational lines, and coastal topography, providing an authentic heritage feel. Overlaid across the chart are perched parrots in striking combinations of turquoise blue, sunny yellow, vibrant scarlet, and emerald green. The repeating composition brings together old-world exploration with tropical natural history, creating an artistic accent for your home. Like all our wall murals, this design is made to measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a living room, this design creates a lively focal point behind a main sofa or across a dedicated reading wall. The contrast between the neutral, antique-toned map and the richly colored plumage gives the pattern enough character to anchor a room without overwhelming the space. Because the map detail is fine while the birds are bold and distinct, the mural rewards close viewing while remaining clear and recognizable from across the room. We also see this working especially well in a vacation home, where the relaxed tropical theme and nostalgic map details feel right at home.

Styling it

To let the detailed vintage illustration take center stage, we suggest balancing the wall with furniture in warm wood tones, such as honey oak, walnut, or teak. Classic colonial or mid-century silhouettes complement the heritage look of the map without competing for visual attention.

For surrounding elements, simple woven textures like rattan, jute rugs, or unbleached canvas upholstery introduce a natural feel that pairs effortlessly with the tropical motif. Brass or antique bronze lighting fixtures and hardware echo the warm sepia ink tones of the cartography, adding a subtle nod to classic nautical and exploratory design.

Color combinations

The background of our wallpaper relies on warm cream, antique parchment, and muted sepia brown lines. The birds introduce vivid pops of cobalt, turquoise, golden yellow, ruby red, and rich foliage green.

For adjacent walls and woodwork, we recommend pulling directly from the map’s paler tones using soft ivory, warm off-white, or light sandy beige to maintain an airy atmosphere. If you want to introduce more color elsewhere in the room, muted forest greens, deep navy, or warm terracotta in your cushions, throws, or accent seating will draw out the bird feathers while keeping the overall palette grounded.
