Wallpaper - Papillion II, Sunflower

Our Papillion II, Sunflower wallpaper by RNM Arts brings together vibrant orange and black butterflies set against a dark background, surrounded by soft lavender flowers with bright sunflower-yellow centres and fresh green leaves. The delicate dot work on the butterfly wings balances with the leafy repeat, giving this floral insect motif a distinctly playful, artistic rhythm. Produced as custom made-to-measure wall murals, our wallpapers are printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, bringing a lively character to any room where you want an expressive botanical focus.

In the room

In a bedroom or dressing room, this repeating motif works beautifully across the wall behind the headboard or vanity, where the darker ground creates an enveloping, intimate backdrop while the butterflies and sunflower yellows draw the eye. For an entryway or hallway staircase, the rhythmic symmetry gives passing spaces visual energy without requiring complex wall arrangements. We also like using our mural wallpapers in a dining room or home study on a main wall, where the detailed ink-drawn elements can be appreciated up close while grounding the surrounding space.

Styling it

Because the pattern carries strong contrast and rich graphic detail, we suggest keeping the immediate furniture relatively simple. Warm wood tones, such as honey oak or teak, echo the earthy warmth of the design and soften the deep background. Pair the design with understated ceramics, woven natural fibres, or simple painted furniture in muted neutrals so the wallpaper remains the clear focal point of the interior.

Colour combinations

The design itself features rich sunflower yellow, bright orange, deep black, lavender, and botanical greens set over a dark backdrop. When choosing paint for adjacent walls, woodwork, or built-in cabinetry, we recommend pulling out the softer tones from the motif. A muted lavender-grey, warm ochre, or soft moss green will create a harmonious transition, while an earthy off-white or charcoal trim provides a clean, tailored boundary around the wallpaper.
