Wallpaper - Bird and Leaves II

Our Bird and Leaves II wallpaper brings together fluid watercolour brushstrokes and an airy, minimalist composition created by artist Chris Paschke. The design features a delicate songbird with a dark back and warm reddish-orange breast perched peacefully on an arching branch with soft green leaves, set against an open white backdrop. What we particularly appreciate about this mural is how the generous white space lets each stroke breathe, creating an uncluttered, nature-inspired focal point. As with all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a bedroom or a quiet study, we like positioning this wall mural behind a low bed frame or a writing desk so the branch and bird remain clearly visible above the furniture line. The spacious background prevents the design from feeling heavy, making it an excellent option for compact entryways or smaller living rooms where you want visual interest without overwhelming the space. Because the motif relies on delicate, painterly details and subtle tonal shifts within the sage green leaves, it works wonderfully in rooms with clear, natural daylight where the nuances of the watercolour technique can be fully appreciated.

Styling it

We recommend leaning into a clean, Asian-zen or contemporary aesthetic to complement the expressive simplicity of the artwork. Keep surrounding furnishings light and uncrowded, allowing the negative space of the wall mural to set the tone for the entire room. Low-profile furniture in light ash or pale oak echoes the organic quality of the painted branch, while simple linen textiles and ceramic accents in soft off-white or charcoal help ground the room without competing with the illustration.

Colour combinations

The design centres on a clean white background accented by soft sage green, earthy branch tones, charcoal black, and a warm splash of reddish-orange on the bird. To build a cohesive room scheme around our mural wallpapers, we suggest pairing this design with adjacent walls in muted chalky white or pale grey-green. For furniture, upholstery, and decorative accents, deep charcoal or warm terracotta pieces tie directly into the bird's distinctive plumage, creating a balanced and intentional palette throughout the interior.
