Wallpaper - Space to Think

Our Space to Think wallpaper by Mary Urban presents a surreal, portrait-style composition where deep cosmic space replaces the subject's face. Swirling nebulae in rich blues, purples, and starry whites open up within dark styled hair, accented by a delicate floral headband. Grounding the dreamlike celestial imagery, the figure wears a cream-toned shirt patterned with blue and red flowers. Printed on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this made-to-measure design balances expressive art with quiet, grounded details.

In the room

Because of its strong central focal point and deep palette, we see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a bedroom or a dedicated dressing room. Placing the portrait behind a bed or along a main wall gives the cosmic elements room to draw the eye without overwhelming the rest of the space. In a creative home studio or a relaxed living room, the darker navy tones create an intimate, reflective atmosphere. The composition benefits from a relatively open wall where the transition between the floral clothing and the star-filled portrait remains clearly visible.

Styling it

We suggest balancing the surreal character of the mural with understated furniture shapes and clean silhouettes. Low-profile seating or simple wooden pieces keep the visual focus centered on the artwork itself.

To complement the rich navy and floral elements, incorporating painted furniture in muted charcoal or deep blue creates a cohesive backdrop, while brushed metal hardware can subtly echo the brighter points within the cosmic motif. Keeping larger textiles relatively simple allows the pattern in the shirt and the detailed starry center to stand out naturally.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper brings together deep navy, celestial blues, vivid purples, and soft whites within the starry void, balanced by the cream, blue, and red accents of the patterned shirt. For surrounding surfaces, soft off-white or light stone paint helps highlight the lighter tones in the clothing, while a deep navy or muted midnight blue on adjacent walls or trim creates a rich, enveloping room setting. Subtle touches of dusty rose or muted berry in accents can also pick up the small floral details.
