Wallpaper - Cryptid Tourism II

Our Cryptid Tourism II wallpaper by Omar Escalante brings a playful mid-century travel poster aesthetic into the home. The graphic illustration captures a stylized Nevada desert scene beneath a starry night sky, complete with a crashed flying saucer half-buried in the sand. Glowing orange mountains, cacti, and desert brush create striking contrast against the dark sky, framed by retro typography celebrating Area 51 and Rachel, Nevada. With its screenprint-inspired look, earthy tones, and bold graphic shapes, this design makes an expressive statement. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure and PVC-free.

In the room

Because this mural wallpaper functions like a large-scale graphic artwork, we like giving it a dedicated accent wall where the full composition remains visible. In a teenage room, home office, or hobby room, placing the design behind a desk or low seating ensures that the central crashed saucer and desert foreground stay in full view. In a den or living room, it acts as an immediate visual anchor, creating a distinct mid-century sci-fi atmosphere without overwhelming the entire space.

Styling it

We recommend letting the bold poster composition lead the space by keeping surrounding furniture clean and grounded. Low-profile mid-century modern pieces, such as a teak or walnut desk, sit naturally alongside the 1950s aesthetic. To balance the graphic nature of the print, introduce warm, tactile accents like a simple woven wool rug or matte painted shelving, avoiding overly busy decorative patterns that might compete with the illustration.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper balances deep night-sky tones and olive greens with warm, glowing orange and earthy desert browns. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or woodwork, muted terracotta, warm ochre, or earthy olive shades tie directly into the landscape elements. If you prefer a lighter, quieter surround, a warm desert sand or off-white lets the rich contrast of the central mural stand out clearly.
