Wallpaper - Somersault Gray

Designed by Mike Schick, our Somersault Gray wallpaper brings a bold, painterly composition into the home. Broad, expressive colour fields in coral pink and soft warm grey sit against an off-white painted background, overlaid with fluid, vertical black brushstrokes that run through the height of the piece. The painterly texture and visible brushwork give the design an expressive, contemporary character with plenty of visual movement. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working particularly well in a contemporary living room or a dedicated creative home studio where its large-scale abstract forms have room to breathe. Because the composition relies on open space and tall vertical lines, giving it a wider, uninterrupted feature wall lets the balance between the bold pink shapes and the dark gestures unfold naturally. In rooms with good daylight, the softer tonal transitions within the grey and coral paint layers become especially noticeable.

Styling it

The expressive nature of this design pairs well with clean-lined contemporary furniture that lets the wall mural act as the main focal point. We would lean towards minimalist seating in neutral upholstery, paired with light or medium wood tones to ground the warmth of the pink and grey tones. Keeping surrounding accessories relatively simple, with perhaps a few matte black accents to echo the dark vertical lines in the artwork, creates a cohesive, modern interior without visual clutter.

Colour combinations

The palette of our design centres on vibrant coral pink, muted pastel rose, and a balanced neutral grey against a warm off-white canvas. When painting adjacent walls or selecting larger furniture, we recommend pulling out the muted warm grey or using a soft, neutral off-white to keep the room feeling open. If you want a more daring combination, deeper charcoal elements or muted terracotta accents complement the coral tones without competing with the original artwork.
