Wallpaper - Teal and Ink II

Designed by Chris Paschke, our Teal and Ink II wallpaper brings expressive abstract energy to an interior with its sweeping brushstrokes and dynamic ink washes. Deep charcoal and black forms anchor the artwork, bleeding softly into watercolor-like gray tones and set off by vibrant splashes of sky blue and teal. Set against a clean white ground, this painterly design balances open negative space with rich visual texture, making it a compelling focal point. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure to fit your room's exact dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

Because of its bold scale and high contrast, we see this design working especially well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the organic sweep of the ink can stretch out without heavy disruption. In a modern living room or behind a headboard in a bedroom, it brings an artistic presence that feels intentional and considered. The crisp white background keeps the room feeling open, while the fluid movement of the charcoal and teal adds depth. It also makes an engaging statement in a home office, study, or entryway, where a single accent wall can set a contemporary, creative tone.

Styling it

To let the dynamic brushwork remain the center of attention, we recommend surrounding it with minimalist furnishings and clean, contemporary silhouettes. Low-profile furniture works nicely to leave as much of the ink motif visible as possible.

• Pair with sleek black metal accents or matte black lighting fixtures to echo the deep ink tones in the motif.
• Choose natural wood elements in light ash or pale oak to introduce warmth without competing with the bold composition.
• Keep surrounding textiles simple and textured in off-white, light gray, or unbleached tones to harmonize with the neutral background.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by its dramatic palette of deep charcoal black, smoky gray washes, and vivid pops of cerulean blue and teal over a crisp white base. When decorating around this design, we suggest pulling the bright blue or teal into small decorative accents like a single throw pillow, a ceramic vase, or a piece of art glass to create a cohesive thread through the room. For larger surfaces such as adjacent walls, trims, or large upholstery, quiet neutrals like soft cool grays, chalky off-whites, or deep charcoal create a balanced and sophisticated atmosphere.
