Wallpaper - Squirrel Tree

Our Squirrel Tree wallpaper brings a storybook forest moment into the home, centred on an illustrated squirrel perched along delicate branches laden with golden fruit and autumn foliage. Created in collaboration with NickStudios, the design draws on nineteenth-century ink drawing aesthetics, where fine line work details the squirrel's bushy tail and the curving bark of the surrounding trees. A subtle butterfly flutters alongside the central motif, set against an airy, cream-toned backdrop that gives each illustrated branch room to breathe. Printed to order on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface texture, this made-to-measure wallpaper offers a gentle narrative touch for family spaces.

In the room

We especially like this mural wallpaper as a focal wall in a nursery, toddler room, or children's bedroom. Because the central squirrel motif and curving branches create an organic, balanced focal point, we recommend giving it an uninterrupted wall where the central illustration remains in full view, such as behind a cot or along a dedicated reading nook. In a playroom, the warm autumn tones and playful wildlife motif add visual interest without overwhelming the space, making it easy to keep the remaining walls simple.

Styling it

To complement the classic storybook charm of the artwork, we would pair this design with warm, natural wood finishes like pine, birch, or natural oak. Keeping surrounding furniture lower to the floor helps maintain a clear line of sight to the central squirrel and delicate fruit clusters. Simple woven storage baskets and soft linen or cotton textiles in muted cream or oatmeal help ground the setting without competing with the detailed ink work.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is defined by rich saffron, warm ochre, and soft golden oranges in the leaves and fruit, balanced by gentle charcoal-grey accents and warm wood browns. When selecting surrounding wall colours, soft warm whites, muted buttermilk tones, or pale earthy clays work beautifully alongside the light background. For painted trims, skirting boards, or accent shelving, a deep taupe or soft olive grey will pick up the darker ink outlines in the tree branches.
