Wallpaper - From the Butcher Dark II

Created by Courtney Prahl, our From the Butcher Dark II wallpaper brings an artistic collage motif to life against a textured charcoal gray backdrop. The central pig silhouette is composed of vintage-inspired paper cutouts, featuring varied typography fragments, muted floral patterns, warm earthy paper tones, and speckled gray segments that give the artwork a layered, handcrafted feel. Set against a deep, weathered-look chalkboard surface with subtle scuffs and smudges, this wallpaper creates a graphic focal point full of personality. Our wall murals are made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and are printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a kitchen or a relaxed dining area where its playful reference to classic butcher-shop charts can be appreciated up close. Because the collage sits in the center against an expansive dark charcoal field, the design functions beautifully on a primary feature wall where the central silhouette can remain unobstructed. Placing it above low countertops, a dining banquette, or along an open kitchen wall allows the intricate typography and paper textures within the pig figure to draw the eye without feeling visually overcrowded.

Styling it

The rich, chalky background pairs naturally with warm wood cabinetry, open shelving, and understated kitchen furniture that let the artwork stand out. Matte black hardware, vintage ceramics, or simple industrial pendant lights complement the nostalgic, graphic character of the collage without competing with its details. Keeping adjacent storage simple and uncluttered helps maintain the visual balance, giving the central motif room to breathe.

Colour combinations

The palette within our wallpaper blends charcoal gray, soft off-white, kraft paper brown, muted purple accents, and aged newsprint tones. Around the wall mural, we suggest pairing these shades with warm stone tones, soft off-whites, or deep charcoal paint on surrounding surfaces and trim to echo the background. For a richer, more cohesive interior, muted earthy tones like taupe or weathered timber seamlessly reflect the collage pieces within the silhouette.
