Wallpaper - From the Butcher II

Designed by Courtney Prahl, our From the Butcher II wallpaper brings a whimsical, graphic collage to life across an off-white background. The central silhouette of a pig is constructed from distinct patterned paper cut-outs, combining bold typography in vibrant orange, blue, and cream with polka dots, soft pink painterly sections, newsprint clippings, and grey textured shapes. We love how this playful patchwork approach references traditional butcher charts while keeping the mood light and artistic. Printed on made-to-measure, PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this design makes an expressive statement across any residential feature wall.

In the room

We see this design working naturally as an accent wall in a kitchen, dining area, or breakfast nook. Because the artwork centres on a single detailed, graphic pig motif set against an open background, we recommend placing it on a wall that is relatively clear of tall cupboards or bulky appliances so the complete silhouette remains visible. It works especially well behind a kitchen dining table or along a pantry wall where its culinary theme feels right at home. In smaller spaces or open-plan living areas, the generous negative space keeps the room feeling open while providing an artistic focal point.

Styling it

To let the mixed-media character of the artwork stand out, we would pair it with straightforward furniture and warm finishes:

• Combine with painted wooden cabinetry or dining furniture in warm neutral shades or deep navy to anchor the brighter colours in the paper.
• Introduce rustic details such as a natural wood dining table or butcher-block surfaces that complement the artisanal theme of the print.
• Keep wall decor minimal on adjacent walls, allowing the graphic collage to serve as the main visual feature in the room.

Colour combinations

The collage motif brings together a lively palette of bright orange, blush pink, denim and navy blue, charcoal grey, and aged paper tones against an off-white backdrop. For surrounding painted walls, we suggest a warm off-white, light cream, or gentle taupe to extend the background tone throughout the room. If you prefer a bolder contrast, pulling the deep blue or warm slate grey onto kitchen cabinets, trims, or an adjacent accent area will highlight the rich graphic elements within the print.
