Wallpaper - Apres Ski

Designed by Carrie Cantwell, our Apres Ski wallpaper brings a lively, retro 1960s alpine atmosphere straight onto the wall. The graphic, screenprint-inspired illustration captures a skier in a white winter suit holding a mug topped with whipped cream, framed by blue goggles and bold red lips. In the background, a red cable car travels above snow-covered pine trees and red-roofed chalets, while skiers in vivid red and pink carve through snowy slopes under playful clouds and falling flakes. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

This is a narrative, expressive design, so we think it works best where the full scene can unfold without being cut off by high furniture. In a living room or a dedicated game room, placing this mural wallpaper on a main feature wall immediately sets an upbeat, social tone.

Because of its energetic theme and bold illustrative shapes, our design is also a natural fit for a vacation home, cabin, playroom, or teenage room. In a cabin living area, giving the wallpaper an uninterrupted expanse allows the charming details, such as the toasted champagne glasses in the cable car and the racing skiers, to remain clearly visible from across the room.

Styling it

The distinct mid-century graphic style pairs naturally with retro and contemporary interiors that do not take themselves too seriously:

• Ground the bold scene with clean-lined mid-century furniture, such as low-profile credenzas or sofas in warm wood finishes that balance the graphic shapes.
• Balance the playful pop colours with simple, understated fabrics in cream, off-white, or heathered grey so the wall remains the visual focal point.
• Repeat the primary red or warm pink in small doses, like a single lacquered side table or graphic cushion, to tie the seating area into the artwork.

Colour combinations

The palette in this wallpaper is crisp and vibrant, built on clear sky blue, bright snow white, bold cherry red, and vivid pink accents alongside deep forest pine greens.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls and woodwork, a clean, soft white keeps the overall space feeling bright and lets the blue sky of the illustration pop. If you want a moodier, more cohesive look in a smaller room, a muted slate blue pulled from the sky tone creates a cosy, wraparound feel on adjoining surfaces. For painted trim or accent furniture, touches of warm ruby red or forest green echo the cabin roofs and evergreen trees nicely.
