Wallpaper - Crow and Golden Sun

Our Crow and Golden Sun wallpaper brings together bold graphic composition and rich, painterly detail. Created by artist Kate Jarvik Birch, the design presents a close portrait of a crow rendered in deep midnight blues, inky black, and fine white highlights along the plumage. Behind the bird, a warm golden sun disc rests against a solid teal backdrop, creating a striking colour contrast that gives the motif its graphic presence. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural with a subtle paper texture, this design offers an expressive focal point that works especially well on a feature wall.

In the room

Because the motif centres around a prominent circular sun and a detailed portrait, we would give this design an uninterrupted wall where the full composition can be appreciated. It functions exceptionally well as a feature wall behind a bed, in a dedicated home office, or in a library and reading nook. In a living room, placing it on the primary accent wall brings visual depth without overwhelming the rest of the room. The balance between cool teal and warm gold allows the mural wallpapers to anchor both compact study spaces and larger reception rooms.

Styling it

We recommend letting the bold artwork lead the room and pairing it with understated, grounded interior elements. Mid-to-dark wood furniture, such as walnut or smoked oak, echoes the depth of the dark feathers and provides a natural counterbalance to the teal background. For hardware and decorative accents, aged brass or matte black finishes complement the warm gold disc and sharp graphic lines of the crow. Keeping large upholstered pieces in quiet, neutral textiles ensures the wallpaper remains the clear visual centrepiece of the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a vivid palette of deep teal, radiant ochre gold, inky blue, and slate tones with crisp white brushwork. When choosing surrounding wall colours or woodwork, deep muted teals and soft navy shades create an immersive, wrapped effect. Alternatively, warm off-whites, pale stone, or soft biscuit tones on adjacent walls will allow the golden sun and dark crow to stand out with crisp, contemporary contrast.
