Wallpaper - Putting Down a Trail

Our Putting Down a Trail wallpaper captures a skier in a bright yellow jacket carving through untouched white snow, sending a fine spray of powder into the clear air. Photographed by Lucas Tiefenthaler, the composition balances dynamic movement with the stillness of an alpine landscape, framed by a jagged rock formation rising beneath a deep blue sky. Soft shadows track across the open snowfield, giving the wide scene depth and clear visual direction. Produced as made-to-measure wall murals on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings crisp mountain perspective directly to a statement wall.

In the room

In an open living room or vacation home, this photographic design works exceptionally well on a broad, uninterrupted wall where the full scale of the mountain slope can be appreciated from across the space. Because the composition contains both expansive snowfields and concentrated action, giving the mural wallpaper plenty of horizontal breathing room keeps the sense of scale intact. We would place the main seating opposite or slightly offset from the wall, allowing the upward diagonal line of the skier and the vertical rise of the rock to draw the eye naturally through the room.

Styling it

We recommend keeping surrounding furniture low and structured to maintain an open view across the snowfield. Clean-lined modern seating in charcoal, dark slate, or navy echoes the cool shadows and crisp sky, while preventing the white expanse from feeling stark. To complement the cool tones of the snow without clashing with the crisp photography, introducing warmth through natural timber furniture or simple wool upholstery creates a balanced, inviting setting. A few small decorative touches in mustard or warm ochre can also pick up on the skier's jacket without overwhelming the clean palette.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by pure snow whites, deep mountain blues, and cool cast shadows, punctuated by the vivid yellow of the skier's jacket. Around the mural, we suggest working with cool neutrals such as slate grey, graphite, and crisp off-white on adjacent walls and baseboards. If you want to introduce deeper contrast, rich navy or deep midnight blue creates a striking frame around the scene, while subtle accents of amber or warm mustard connect naturally with the focal point of the photograph.
