Wallpaper - Little Houses IV

Designed by Sarah Adams, our Little Houses IV wallpaper brings a playful village scene to life through bold graphic shapes and charming mid-century illustration details. The motif features three distinctive homes, from a black-roofed house with pink windows to a taller building with a scalloped yellow roof and a red-roofed cottage with dormer windows, all framed by stylized oversized blooms and lush green foliage. Set against a warm textured beige backdrop, this cheerful design offers a wonderful focal point for family spaces. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in a nursery, toddler room, children's bedroom, or dedicated playroom. Because the three houses form a distinct horizontal composition, we recommend placing this wall mural across an open, relatively uninterrupted feature wall where the entire architectural story can unfold naturally. In a child's bedroom, it makes a lovely backdrop behind a low bed frame or a reading nook, keeping the detailed illustrated facades and flowering plants fully in view. The warm beige background provides enough visual calm that the design can ground the room without overwhelming the space.

Styling it

When styling around this mural wallpaper, we suggest keeping the surrounding furniture clean-lined and understated so the playful graphic illustration remains the primary visual feature. Light, natural wood furniture such as birch or pale ash complements the mid-century illustration style and matches the warm undertone of the background.

For surrounding accessories, simple painted finishes in soft off-white, light cream, or muted green work beautifully. Rather than introducing busy patterned textiles, opt for solid fabrics in smooth woven cottons or knit blankets that allow the distinct shapes and joyful character of the little houses to take center stage.

Colour combinations

Our design is built around a warm beige background layered with lively accents of sunny yellow, clear red, soft pink, deep black, and vibrant leafy greens.

To create a balanced and welcoming palette throughout the rest of the room, you can draw directly from the artwork:

• Soft warm white or creamy oatmeal on adjacent walls will keep the room bright while matching the textured background.
• Muted sage green or mossy olive accents on trim, shelving, or storage boxes echo the stylized foliage and ground the brighter hues.
• Small touches of mustard yellow or dusty pink in cushions and soft furnishings tie back to the rooflines and window details without creating visual clutter.
