Wallpaper - Perception

Designed by Jocelyn Elizabeth, our Perception wallpaper brings dynamic painterly energy to your interior through expressive, layered brushwork. Sweeping strokes of cornflower blue, turquoise, and deep navy establish a rich aquatic foundation, punctuated by lively accents of soft pastel pink, pale yellow, and crisp white. Visible canvas and painted textures give the abstract composition an authentic, artistic appearance that feels fresh and modern on a grand scale. Printed custom to your dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design makes a confident statement while remaining straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because Perception has such a fluid, sweeping movement, we love seeing it on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full breadth of the brushwork can unfold. In an open living room or a dedicated dining space, it serves as a captivating focal point behind a sofa or dining table, giving the room an immediate artistic presence.

The balance of cool blues with warm yellow and pink highlights makes it equally fitting for a contemporary bedroom or a creative home office. In a bedroom, placing this mural wallpaper behind the bed frame anchors the space without overwhelming it, especially in rooms that receive generous natural daylight to illuminate the lighter pastel tones. For hallways or entryway walls, the sweeping upward and diagonal strokes create a welcoming sense of motion as you move through the space.

Styling it

When styling around such an expressive abstract design, we recommend letting the wallpaper command the visual attention while keeping surrounding furnishings clean and grounded.

• Pair with contemporary furniture featuring clean, low profiles and solid upholstery so the shapes do not compete with the fluid strokes on the wall.
• Introduce natural light wood tones, such as pale oak or birch, to echo the warm yellow and cream brushwork without adding visual clutter.
• Incorporate subtle matte black or dark navy metal accents in light fixtures or table legs to tie in with the darker anchoring marks in the artwork.
• Use understated solid-color textiles in muted linen or soft cream to create a calm, balanced atmosphere that complements the energetic wall surface.

Colour combinations

The palette of our Perception design is built around cool, vibrant tones balanced by soft warmth. The dominant background blends deep navy, cornflower blue, and vivid turquoise with frothy white highlights. Interspersed throughout are contrasting brushstrokes of blush pink, buttery yellow, and soft beige.

To create a cohesive interior, we recommend drawing from the softer background hues for adjacent painted walls and woodwork. Warm whites, soft chalky creams, or a very pale powder blue create a seamless transition around the room. If you want to lean into a more dramatic, intimate feel, picking up the deeper navy for surrounding trim or built-in shelving provides a striking contrast that beautifully frames the wallpaper.
