Wallpaper - Lakeside Reverie

Our Lakeside Reverie wallpaper, created in collaboration with Julia Purinton, captures the tranquil mood of water lilies resting on a quiet pond. Painted with soft, impressionistic brushstrokes, the motif blends layers of earthy fern green with subtle reflections of purple and blue in the water. Delicate white lilies with warm yellow centers provide gentle points of focus across the surface, giving the composition an expressive, painterly depth. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

In a bedroom, we see this design working beautifully on the wall behind the bed, where the fluid horizontal movement of the water creates an expansive, restful backdrop. Because the pattern relies on soft tonal shifts rather than sharp geometric repeats, it also suits a quiet home library or a dedicated meditation space. On a larger, uninterrupted wall, the full painterly scene has space to breathe, allowing the eye to travel across the lily pads and soft watery reflections.

Styling it

To complement the classic impressionist aesthetic of this wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with furniture that shares its organic, grounded quality. Warm, unvarnished wood tones such as aged oak or walnut sit naturally alongside the earthy fern green palette without competing with the painted texture. Keep surrounding upholstery and large textiles relatively quiet in unbleached neutral fabrics to let the wall mural remain the primary visual focal point of the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself is defined by deep fern greens, mossy undertones, soft hints of lavender-blue, and warm cream and yellow in the lily blossoms. When choosing colors for adjacent walls, trim, or larger cabinetry, warm off-whites, muted stone, or pale biscuit shades create a harmonious transition. For a deeper, more enveloping feel, drawing out a dark olive or a soft slate blue for painted woodwork complements the cooler reflections in the water.
