Wallpaper - Birds in the Mist

Our Birds in the Mist wallpaper captures a tranquil coastal scene photographed by Deborah Revell. A group of white birds stands resting in shallow, mirror-like water, where soft reflections and subtle ripples bring gentle movement across the surface. Broad stretches of ecru, muted brown, and misted neutral tones create a quiet horizon, grounded by textured impressions of wet sand in the distance. The composition feels expansive and airy, bringing a grounded natural character to living spaces and bedrooms. Like all our wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure and PVC-free with a subtle paper structure that handles smoothly during installation.

In the room

In a living room, we see this design working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted accent wall behind a sofa where the calm expanse of the water and horizon line can stretch out naturally. Because the tonal contrast is gentle and the composition relies on open space, the mural wallpapers do not overwhelm a room, making them equally suited to a quiet bedroom behind a headboard or a home office where you want a visually uncluttered backdrop. In spaces with soft, diffused daylight, the delicate shifts between warm ecru and muted earthy tones create a soothing, open atmosphere.

Styling it

The minimalist, wabi-sabi character of the photography pairs naturally with low-profile furniture and unrefined, tactile textures. We would pair this wallpaper with low-sheen light wood furniture, textured woven rugs, and washed linen upholstery to mirror the earthy simplicity of the shoreline. Keeping furniture silhouettes clean and avoiding high-gloss finishes allows the natural balance of the wall mural to anchor the entire room.

Colour combinations

Our design is built on a base of soft ecru, muted sand brown, and hazy off-white neutrals. Around the room, we suggest extending these warm, pale undertones onto adjacent walls with shades of chalky oatmeal, warm stone, or washed taupe. To add subtle depth without introducing sharp visual breaks, incorporate deeper accents of driftwood grey, charred oak, or soft umber through textiles and decorative objects.
