Wallpaper - Kites

Created by Michael Clark, our Kites wallpaper captures the breezy joy of kites drifting across a bright sky. Painterly strokes and soft cloud textures create an airy, sky-blue background that gives the design its open feel, while geometric kite shapes in warm orange, sunny yellow, terracotta, and soft pink float upward with fluttering bows. The dynamic diagonal composition brings a sense of playful movement to a wall without feeling overwhelming. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings light, color, and cheerful character into your home.

In the room

We love this design in children's bedrooms, nurseries, and playrooms, where its whimsical spirit naturally belongs. Because the motif is set against an expansive blue sky with elements rising at dynamic angles, it gives the room a light and open atmosphere. On a dedicated feature wall, such as behind a crib, low bed, or reading nook, the kites create an engaging focal point that sparks imagination.

The open composition also works wonderfully across multiple walls or even papered onto the ceiling to evoke an open summer sky overhead. In a toddler room or playroom with lower furniture, keeping the upper wall space clear allows the flowing kite tails and floating geometric shapes to be enjoyed in full view.

Styling it

When decorating around this wallpaper, we recommend keeping the surrounding furnishings simple and grounded to let the lively shapes and bright colors lead the room. Clean-lined furniture in light natural wood, warm birch, or soft white complements the airy sky background and lets the artwork stand out.

To create a balanced space, bring in solid textiles such as unpatterned bedding, simple cotton curtains, and neutral rugs. Choosing plain fabrics prevents visual competition with the detailed kite bows and painterly brushwork, ensuring the room remains calm and uncluttered.

Colour combinations

The palette of our Kites design combines a soft sky-blue backdrop with energetic pops of warm orange, golden yellow, blush pink, deep terracotta, and touches of deeper blue on the tails.

To create a cohesive scheme, pull from these accent tones when styling adjacent elements. Painted woodwork or surrounding walls in a soft warm white, pale cream, or a muted sky blue create a gentle transition. For accents like cushions, shelving, or wall hooks, picking up the rich ochre or warm terracotta from the kites adds warmth and ties the whole room together.
