Wallpaper - Puffed and Chuffed

Our Puffed and Chuffed wallpaper, created by Kate Jarvik Birch, brings a charming and characterful portrait of a plump pigeon to the wall. Painted with a gouache-like illustrative texture, the design showcases rich shades of dusty blue, soft lavender, and deep violet across the bird's feathered chest, balanced by warm coral feet and a bright amber eye against a pale lilac-pink background. Like all our wallpapers, this mural is made-to-measure to fit your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

This wall mural works wonderfully as an engaging focal point where its playful subject and illustrative style can be appreciated up close. In a bedroom, guest room, or study, we like placing it on the primary feature wall behind a low bed frame or desk, ensuring the central composition remains visible. It also brings an unexpected, personality-rich touch to a hallway, landing, or entryway, welcoming you with its gentle humour and soft, tonal palette. Because the pigeon stands on a defined ground with soft cast shadows, the mural anchors naturally above skirting boards without feeling ungrounded.

Styling it

To complement the charming, hand-painted feel of this mural wallpaper, we suggest keeping surrounding furnishings understated and approachable. Natural timber furniture in blonde ash, light oak, or painted white wood maintains an airy, relaxed atmosphere that lets the artwork stand out. For soft furnishings, opt for matte textures such as washed cottons or light wool throws in muted lavender, slate blue, or soft stone grey to quietly echo the plumage without overwhelming the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a lovely harmony of cool blues, violets, and lilacs alongside warm terracotta-red accents on the bird's feet. For adjacent walls and trim, we recommend soft off-whites with a faint warm undertone, pale chalky greys, or muted dusty blues. If you prefer deeper contrast in surrounding decor, deep navy or plum accents will draw out the darker brushwork in the pigeon's collar and wingtips.
