Wallpaper - Oak Hill Slumber, October

Our Oak Hill Slumber, October wallpaper captures an illustrative woodland scene centred on a grand oak tree where a sleeping fox rests inside the trunk hollow. Designed by Irina Chikati, the composition balances gentle narrative details across a meadow landscape, featuring a raccoon lounging on a branch, two owls tucked together, and bees drifting around a hanging honeycomb. A soft autumn sky with a drifting kite and colourful bunting crowns the top, while wildflowers border the lower ground. Sized to your specific wall dimensions, this made-to-measure wallpaper is PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love this design on a primary wall in a nursery, toddler room, or children's playroom where the full height of the oak tree can unfold. Because the visual storytelling spans from the wildflowers along the bottom to the kite and sky higher up, the design works best across an open, relatively uninterrupted wall area. In a child's bedroom, placing the motif behind a low bed or cot allows the resting animals and tree branches to stay in clear view, serving as a charming storybook backdrop. The balanced pastel tones and soft green backdrop keep the room feeling calm and welcoming across larger surfaces.

Styling it

To complement the storybook character of the design, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Natural, pale wood furniture such as light birch or ash pairs nicely with the woodland setting without competing with the illustrated tree. For textiles, soft washed cottons or unpatterned wool blankets in warm neutral tones help balance the colourful bunting and wildflower details. Choosing plain, low-profile storage keeps the floor-level flora visible and allows the mural wallpaper to remain the natural focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

The artwork brings together a delicate palette of soft greens, sky blue, warm burnt oranges, deep reds, and earthy bark browns against pale pastel background tones. To build a cohesive room around this wallpaper, look to surrounding walls in gentle off-white, muted warm grey, or a very pale sky blue drawn from the upper backdrop. For painted furniture or skirting, soft sage greens or warm terracotta accents pick up the fox and foliage colours beautifully while keeping the overall atmosphere light and balanced.
