Bring the tropics to your walls, no passport needed!

Bring the tropics to your walls, no passport needed!

There’s something magical about tropical wallpaper. It’s bold, lush, and undeniably charming, bringing a sense of adventure to any room. But what makes ours truly special isn’t just the design – it’s the story behind it.

Where old books meet new walls

Some of our tropical wall murals started their journey in dusty 19th-century botanical books and vintage illustrations. Back then, naturalists and artists painstakingly sketched and painted the wonders of the jungle. Fast forward to today, and we’re giving these forgotten treasures a fresh purpose.

We carefully restored these illustrations, enhancing every leaf, vine, and flower while preserving their vintage charm. Then, we enlarge them to mural proportions – think wall-sized works of art where every detail stands out. The result? A stunning fusion of history and design that turns your wall into a conversation starter.

Take, for example, our Hymn of Hummingbirds mural. This panoramic wallpaper began as a historic 19th-century book The Temple of Flora illustration by Philip Reinagle (1743-1833). He was a renown Biritish painter, who´s works were celebrated for his detailed depictions of flora and fauna. The Hymn of Hummingbirds It features blooming Calliandra houstoniana flowers – also known as Mimosa Grandiflora (isn’t that the most beautiful plant name?) – set against a picturesque hilly landscape. Delicate hummingbirds flutter gracefully among the vibrant flowers. Today, the wallpaper is available both in sepia beige and in full colour.

Tropical style: forever in fashion

Let’s clear something up: tropical wallpaper isn’t just for beach houses or warm climates. In fact, it’s the perfect antidote to cold, gray days. Picture this: a lush jungle mural in your living room while snow falls outside. It’s like your walls decided to go on vacation without asking – and took you along for the ride!

Whether it’s vibrant palm leaves or elegant florals, tropical wall murals never go out of style. They bring a sense of elegance to any space, whether you’re in a city apartment or a countryside house.

How to style your tropical escape

Adding a tropical wall mural doesn’t mean turning your home into a rainforest retreat. It’s all about balance. Here’s how to make it work with your modern interior:

  • Let the wall be the star: use the wallpaper just for the feature wall. Keep furniture and accessories neutral. Think soft greys, whites, or beiges that let the wall mural do all the talking.
  • Add natural textures: Pair the feature wall wallpaper with rattan chairs, woven baskets, or wooden accents. These little touches echo the natural theme without going overboard.
  • Layer in greenery: A few potted plants an make the mural feel like it’s part of a lush indoor garden.
