Wallpaper - Papillion II, Sunflower

Our Papillion II, Sunflower wallpaper combines vibrant orange and black butterflies with soft lavender flowers and sunflower yellow centers across a dark backdrop. Designed by RNM Arts, the motif features intricate wing details accented with fine white dots, balanced by fresh green foliage in an ink-drawing style. The symmetrical repeat and rich visual contrast give the pattern a playful, whimsical energy that immediately draws focus without overwhelming the room. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because of the dark ground and rhythmic symmetry, we love seeing this design on a feature wall in a living room behind a low-backed sofa, or as an enveloping focal point in a bedroom behind the headboard. The balanced scale of the repeat also works remarkably well in narrower, transitional areas like an entryway, hallway staircase, or powder room, where the decorative detail can be appreciated close up. For a home office or dining room, you can let the wallpaper anchor the space by keeping surrounding large furniture simple in form so the butterflies and floral forms take center stage.

Styling it

We suggest pairing this wallpaper with furnishings that complement its bohemian, 1970s-inspired character while maintaining clean silhouettes. Darker wood tones or painted furniture in matte charcoal and deep espresso help echo the background, allowing the warm orange and bright yellow accents to stand out clearly. When selecting textiles, choose plain, unpatterned fabrics in warm neutral tones or muted greens to keep the visual focus entirely on the mural wallpapers.

Colour combinations

The pattern itself is built around a deep dark background layered with sunflower yellow, warm orange, soft lavender, crisp white, and earthy greens. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or woodwork, a warm off-white or soft muted ochre will bring out the golden centers of the flowers without fighting for attention. Alternatively, pulling out a dusty, muted olive for trim or cabinetry creates a grounded, nature-inspired connection with the leaves in the print.
