Wallpaper - Peace on Earth

Our Peace on Earth wallpaper, designed by Kathleen Parr McKenna, captures a quiet winter village glowing under a deep navy night sky. Illustrated with a gentle watercolour-like appearance, the scene centres on a tall village church with a colourful stained-glass window, surrounded by snow-covered houses with warm yellow light shining from their windows. Delicate wisps of smoke rise from stone chimneys into a starry sky, while evergreen pines and a decorated Christmas tree bring festive detail to the cold landscape. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free mural wallpapers with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this design brings narrative charm and winter atmosphere to any interior.

In the room

In a family living room, we see this wall mural working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the village composition has ample space to unfold across the full width. The deep navy sky at the top balances the snow-laden rooftops and landscape below, making it an evocative backdrop behind a main seating area. We also like this design in a playroom or cosy reading snug, where the detailed storytelling of lit cottages, starry skies, and evergreen trees can be enjoyed up close. Because the illustration carries a clear horizontal landscape structure, keeping taller storage furniture against adjacent walls allows the church spire and rising chimney smoke to remain visible.

Styling it

We suggest pairing this design with traditional or cottage-inspired furnishings that echo its nostalgic, storytelling character. Soft, warm lighting from table lamps or wall sconces helps pick up the glowing window tones in the artwork, creating an inviting ambience as daylight fades. Painted timber furniture in muted cream, navy, or soft grey works naturally alongside the village architecture without competing with the illustration. Simple, understated textiles such as woollen throws or plain woven cushions allow the illustrative details of the wallpaper to remain the visual centrepiece of the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a deep navy blue night sky, crisp winter whites, and soft yellow highlights in the glowing windows, accented by forest greens and subtle multi-coloured details in the church's stained-glass window. For adjacent painted walls, woodwork, and skirting, we recommend muted off-whites, creamy parchment tones, or a deep midnight blue that extends the sky's depth around the room. Accents of warm ochre, muted forest green, or cranberry red in surrounding decor will naturally draw out the festive and architectural details of the scene.
