Wallpaper - In the Distance

Our In the Distance wallpaper, created by Maggie Sackmann, captures an abstract landscape defined by painterly depth and broad, expressive brushwork. The upper half features a quiet expanse of soft cloud gray and muted pale tones, while the lower portion blends deep moss greens, earthy ochres, and warm terracotta strokes that evoke distant fields and low-lying coastal terrain. As with all our wall murals, this design is custom made-to-measure to fit your specific wall dimensions and is produced on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because the composition carries a distinct horizontal division, we find it works particularly well on wider, uninterrupted feature walls where the sense of open landscape has room to breathe. In a living room behind a low-profile sofa or in a bedroom behind a headboard, the lower earthy tones ground the space while the open sky section keeps the upper wall airy. It also brings a composed, contemplative presence to a home office or dining room, especially in rooms with generous natural daylight that allows the subtle variations in the brushstrokes to come forward.

Styling it

We recommend letting this design lead the visual character of the room by pairing it with clean-lined furniture and restrained accents. Low-slung silhouettes in warm timber or painted finishes keep the horizon line visible and maintain the spacious feel of the motif. In contemporary or Scandinavian-inspired interiors, surrounding the wall mural with natural textures like woven upholstery, matte ceramics, and understated light fixtures complements the painted appearance without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

The artwork centers on a balanced palette of cloud gray, muted sky blues, deep foliage greens, earthy browns, and soft terracotta. To build a cohesive room scheme around this mural wallpaper, we suggest carrying muted off-whites or soft pale grays onto the surrounding walls and trim. For deeper contrast, furniture or architectural accents in dark olive green, warm taupe, or charcoal harmonize naturally with the grounded brushstrokes along the base of the design.
