Wallpaper - Petal Play II

Our Petal Play II wallpaper, created in collaboration with artist Haley Knighten, brings together sweeping, loosely painted floral shapes drifting across a warm beige background. We love how the painterly brush marks combine rich caramel brown, muted green, and soft earthy tones to create an expressive yet gentle abstract composition. The layering of tones gives the botanical forms a subtle sense of depth and fluid movement without overwhelming the eye. Like all Wallism mural 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

Because of the generous scale and open rhythm of the painted petals, we particularly like this design on a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the fluid forms have space to breathe. In a living room, it works wonderfully behind a low-profile sofa, allowing the upper botanical brushwork to create a natural visual focal point. For a bedroom, placing this mural behind the headboard grounds the space in warm, earthy tones while keeping the overall atmosphere soft and restful. If you have a dedicated home art studio or creative workspace, the expressive brush strokes and organic shapes provide an inspiring, art-led backdrop that feels thoughtfully curated.

Styling it

To complement the organic modern feel of this design, we suggest pairing it with furniture and accents that share its soft, grounded character:

• Choose furniture in warm wood tones such as oak or mid-toned timber to echo the earthy caramel notes within the painted petals.
• Keep surrounding seating and upholstery simple in tactile, unpatterned fabrics like bouclé or woven wool in off-white, oatmeal, or soft stone.
• Introduce ceramic vases, stoneware, or matte terracotta accents that reflect the handcrafted, painted nature of the motif.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by caramel brown, muted sage green, and soft sandy beige. When selecting paint colours for adjoining walls and woodwork, warm off-whites and creamy oat tones create a seamless, cohesive transition. For a slightly richer contrast, drawing out the deeper caramel or soft clay shades on interior doors or skirting boards frames the mural beautifully. If you prefer a cooler botanical accent, pulling the muted green from the leaves into surrounding textiles or painted cabinetry adds gentle contrast while maintaining a grounded, nature-inspired palette.
