Wallpaper - Black Bird With A Berry

Featuring artwork by Kate Jarvik Birch, our Black Bird With A Berry wallpaper presents an expressive portrait of a blackbird set against a rich teal background. The motif captures the bird in profile with a glossy red berry held gently in its bright orange beak, while deep blue highlights give dimension to the dark plumage. A yellow ring around the eye draws immediate focus to the bird's lively gaze, lending the piece a characterful presence. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free design with a subtle texture in the paper, this wall mural brings an artistic focal point into the home.

In the room

Because of its bold scale and strong portrait composition, we find this design works especially well as a focal point on an accent wall. In a living room or dining room, positioning the mural on an uninterrupted wall allows the close-up profile and rich painterly details to be appreciated from across the space. It also suits a study, library, or home office, where the deep teal backdrop establishes an immersive, grounded atmosphere around a desk or reading nook. In a hallway or entryway, the striking composition greets you with immediate character without overwhelming smaller proportions.

Styling it

We recommend letting the expressive nature of the motif lead the room, keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean-lined so the wall remains the primary feature. Mid-to-dark wood finishes, such as walnut or stained oak, sit naturally alongside the bird's deep palette and painterly style. Upholstered pieces in muted woven fabrics allow the artwork to stand out comfortably, while small decorative accents in matte black metal or warm brass echo the defined outlines and glowing beak within the illustration.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres on deep midnight tones and rich teal, energized by vivid accents of bright red, warm orange, and yellow. To create a cohesive palette, consider painting adjacent walls in a muted teal or soft slate blue that mirrors the background tone. For a lighter contrast, warm off-whites and pale stone shades keep the space feeling open while framing the deep colours of the mural. If you want to bring out the smaller details, subtle accents in terracotta, ochre, or berry red in cushions or throws will tie the entire room together.
