Wallpaper - Palm Trees and Rugs

In this wallpaper design by artist Michael Clark, tall palm trees rise against sunlit architecture and a clear blue sky, while patterned rugs sit along the courtyard wall below. The artwork features a painterly, oil-paint-inspired finish with soft brushwork, deep violet and magenta undertones in the tree trunks, and warm golden ochre across the lower wall. Our made-to-measure mural wallpapers are PVC-free and produced on paper with a subtle surface structure, making them straightforward to hang while bringing an expressive, sun-drenched feel to the room.

In the room

We find this mural particularly effective when given a wider, uninterrupted wall where the full height of the palm trees and the horizontal balance of the architecture can unfold. In an open-plan living room or dining area, it creates a striking focal point that anchors the surrounding space without overwhelming it. The vertical reach of the palms also works naturally behind a low-profile sofa or headboard in a bedroom, where the upper canopy and sky draw the eye upward. Because the composition contains distinct upper and lower zones, it also adapts well to spaces with good natural daylight, such as a garden room, dining room, or a dedicated home office.

Styling it

The architectural lines and relaxed brushwork make this wallpaper well suited to modern bohemian, coastal, and mid-century interiors. To complement the painterly aesthetic, we would pair the wall mural with low-slung furniture in warm timber tones such as teak or oak. Upholstery in natural, unbleached linen or textured off-white weaves keeps the overall arrangement light and airy. Incorporating sculptural ceramic pieces, woven rattan accents, or low-profile planters helps mirror the courtyard atmosphere depicted in the scene while letting the vibrant tree trunks and blue sky lead the visual narrative.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres on an inviting palette of sky blue, warm white, and sandy ochre, punctuated by deeper notes of indigo, violet, and terracotta in the rugs and palm trunks. To create a seamless transition, you could paint adjacent walls in a soft, chalky white or warm plaster tone that reflects the courtyard architecture. If you prefer deeper contrast, accents in muted terracotta, dusty blue, or rich navy in your cushions and drapery will pick up the darker tones within the motif and tie the entire interior together.
