Wallpaper - Falconiformes

Designed by Julia Dreams, our Falconiformes wallpaper presents an expressive study of owls in poised perches and sweeping flight. The pattern captures the bird figures through a block-print-inspired graphic style, blending defined outlines with softer tonal shading. Rendered in a monochromatic palette of smoke greys and charcoal against a calm neutral beige backdrop, the repeat maintains a rhythmic, open balance across the wall. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a home office, study, or private library where its heritage character feels right at home. The generous spacing between the owl illustrations gives the wall breathing room, making it equally suited to a full-room installation or a dedicated feature wall behind a desk or bed. In a living room or teenage bedroom, the interplay between the stationary perched owls and those in mid-flight creates an engaging visual rhythm that feels dynamic without cluttering the space.

Styling it

The classic 19th-century feel of this design pairs naturally with English country and heritage interior styles. We would lean into timeless furnishings to complement the illustrative print:

• Pair with rich, dark wood furniture or traditional painted joinery to ground the monochromatic motif.
• Introduce tactile wool upholstery or natural woven textiles to soften the graphic outlines.
• Add warm antique brass accents or bronze table lamps to bring a cosy glow against the neutral background.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself is composed of neutral base tones, ranging from soft grey-beige to smoke grey and deeper charcoal accents. Around it, we recommend working with muted, earthy shades. Deep forest greens, warm taupes, or muted slate blues on surrounding woodwork and adjacent walls help highlight the tonal depth of the owl illustrations without competing with the motif.
