Wallpaper - Bright Bold

Our Bright Bold wallpaper, created in collaboration with artist Chris Paschke, pairs dramatic, ink-blot-inspired abstract forms with textured gold-toned accents across a clean white ground. The composition relies on asymmetrical, organic silhouettes in deep black and dark slate gray that create a strong visual presence without overcrowding the wall. The open white background provides plenty of negative space, allowing the expressive brushwork and metallic-looking details to stand out naturally. Our wall murals are made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a living room or home office, we like to see this design given a wider uninterrupted wall where the full scale of the abstract shapes can unfold without being cut off. The high contrast between the dark ink-like elements and the light ground makes it an excellent choice for a feature wall behind a low-profile sofa or along the main desk wall in a study. Because the motif balances heavy dark forms with generous negative space, it creates an artistic focal point while keeping the room feeling open. In spaces with good natural daylight, the fine differences across the dark slate gray tones and gold accents become particularly distinct.

Styling it

We recommend keeping the surrounding furniture relatively minimalist and low in profile so the wallpaper remains the primary visual statement. Clean-lined contemporary pieces in warm wood tones, such as natural walnut or white oak, complement the organic flow of the black shapes while grounding the room. For accents, simple matte black elements or subtle warm metallic hardware echo the tones in the artwork without competing with its bold presence.

Colour combinations

The design features deep black and dark slate gray paired with warm gold accents against a crisp white ground. When painting adjacent walls, soft warm whites or pale neutral grays keep the room bright while allowing the wallpaper to take center stage. For a moodier and more cohesive look across woodwork or cabinetry, a deep charcoal or dark slate gray drawn directly from the ink shapes creates a striking, considered frame around the wall.
