Wallpaper - The Painted Veil

Our Painted Veil wallpaper brings together an expressive floral collage by designer Ludmila Shumilova, where soft pink roses and vibrant red tulips meet warm orange and yellow blossoms. Layered across a subtly textured background with delicate green foliage, the watercolour-inspired composition builds depth through overlapping petals and painterly brushwork. The rich, imaginative character makes this one of our most distinctive floral wallpapers, blending classic botanical beauty with an artistic, modern perspective. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a light, subtle paper structure.

In the room

In a bedroom, we like positioning this design behind the bedhead, where the colourful floral arrangement creates an engaging focal point while remaining soft and welcoming. Because the repeat combines dense floral clusters with open, painterly areas, it also works remarkably well along a wider, uninterrupted wall in a living room. We find that in spaces with plenty of daylight, the nuanced watercolour transitions between petal layers and leaf tones reveal their full visual depth, making the entire wall feel alive and layered without overpowering the room.

Styling it

To let the rich floral collage take centre stage, we suggest balancing the space with understated furniture and clean silhouettes:

• Choose simple painted furniture or muted upholstered pieces that allow the expressive botanical motifs to stand out without competing for attention.
• Introduce tactile accents in natural, unpatterned weaves such as plain linen cushions or a simple wool throw to complement the soft visual texture of the artwork.
• Keep surrounding architectural woodwork and skirtings in a clean, soft neutral to frame the mural wallpaper neatly against the room.

Colour combinations

Our design features a lively mix of rose pink, tulip red, warm orange, and sunny yellow, balanced by muted botanical greens and an earthy, textured backdrop. When selecting paint shades for adjoining walls or surrounding trim, we recommend picking up on the soft, neutral undertones of the background to keep the room grounded. If you prefer a bolder palette, pulling a subtle blush pink or warm terracotta from the floral petals onto adjacent walls creates an enveloping, cohesive atmosphere that ties the entire interior together.
