Wallpaper - Birds Flying High, Light Blue

Designed by Lisa Wirenfelt, our Birds Flying High, Light Blue wallpaper pairs whimsical, graphic bird shapes with an airy powder blue backdrop. The abstract white birds float across the wall in varied sizes, detailed with small black spots and light brown beaks that give the composition a lively, artistic rhythm. The flat, paint-drawing aesthetic brings a calm and dreamy feel to the room while keeping the overall look clean and contemporary. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers, each order is custom printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working naturally in a nursery, toddler room, or children's bedroom where the playful shapes create a soothing yet imaginative setting. Because the powder blue background is open and light, the pattern can easily cover all four walls without closing in the space, or serve as an engaging feature wall behind a cot or low bed. In a compact nursery, the upward drift and varying scale of the birds add a gentle sense of height and vertical movement, making the wall feel open rather than boxed in.

Styling it

The clean lines and relaxed character make this wallpaper an easy match for Scandinavian and modern interiors. We would pair it with light, untreated wood such as ash or birch to echo the soft brown tones of the beaks and keep the nursery feeling grounded.

For surrounding furniture and larger items, simple matte white or pale grey pieces allow the graphic birds to stand out as the primary visual element. Soft, unpatterned textiles in off-white, light oatmeal, or washed cotton help balance the flat illustration style without introducing competing patterns into the room.

Colour combinations

The core palette of our wallpaper centres on soft powder blue, crisp white, and small accents of black and warm light brown. When choosing paint for adjacent walls, skirting, or doors, chalky off-whites and pale stone shades sit comfortably against the cool blue ground. If you want to introduce subtle contrast across cabinetry or shelving, muted sandy tones or soft dove grey complement the bird details while keeping the overall room palette serene and cohesive.
