Wallpaper - Two Birds in The Clouds

In our Two Birds in The Clouds wallpaper, artist Kate Jarvik Birch captures two swallows soaring across a vivid blue sky filled with soft, painted white clouds. Their wide wings display detailed patterns of black, white, and blue, while subtle bright red markings on their faces bring warmth and dynamic contrast to the composition. The painted watercolor style lends the artwork a gentle fluidity, balancing open sky with lively detail. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love how this design brings an uplifting, airy feel to residential spaces without overwhelming them. In a bedroom, we see this working beautifully on the wall behind the headboard, where the expansive sky creates a calm visual backdrop while the swallows add gentle movement above eye level. In a nursery, toddler room, or home study, the balance of open blue sky and expressive birds offers an engaging focal point that feels both playful and artistic. Because the motif relies on a broad sky with distinct focal subjects, it works particularly well on an uninterrupted wall where the flight path of the birds has room to breathe.

Styling it

To complement the classic, painterly character of the artwork, we would pair this wallpaper with traditional or cottage-inspired furniture. Natural timber with warm undertones, such as honey pine or antique oak, balances the cool sky tones, while painted off-white or soft cream joinery keeps the room light. For upholstery and bedding, unpatterned fabrics allow the detailed swallows to remain the central focus. A few subtle red or rust accents in smaller decorative objects, like a ceramic vase or woven cushion piping, can subtly pick up the red detailing on the swallows' faces.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on vivid sky blue and soft cloud whites, anchored by the deep black and navy blues of the bird plumage and accented with touches of bright red. When choosing paint for adjacent walls and woodwork, warm whites, soft creams, or very pale stone shades create a gentle transition that prevents the blue from feeling too cold. If you prefer a richer, more heritage look, deep navy or slate blue on trim or shelving can echo the darker wing feathers while letting the sky motif take centre stage.
