Wallpaper - Making My Mark Blue

Our Making My Mark Blue wallpaper, created by Mary Urban, brings an Asian zen aesthetic into the home through rhythmic circular medallions set against a rich navy blue ground. What we particularly like about this design is the painterly, watercolour-like texture within each white emblem, which softens the crisp geometry of the repeating graphic shapes. The balanced contrast between the deep indigo blue and the textured white markings gives the pattern an orderly, grounded presence. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a dining room or living room where its rhythmic geometry can define the mood of the space. Because the medallions are spaced with generous breathing room on the deep navy backdrop, the repeat creates visual order without overwhelming the eye. On an accent wall behind a dining table or sofa, the high contrast draws immediate interest, while across multiple walls in an intimate dining area it wraps the space in a tranquil, cohesive atmosphere. In rooms with ample daylight, the subtle tonal variations inside the white brushwork become particularly noticeable, while warmer evening lamps enhance the richness of the dark blue base.

Styling it

The clean geometry and painterly quality of this wallpaper pair naturally with both contemporary and Asian-inspired interiors. We would balance the bold graphic pattern with warm, natural materials such as light oak or warm walnut furniture, which soften the contrast between the navy and white.

To maintain a serene, intentional balance, keep large upholstered seating and window drapery in understated, unpatterned neutral tones like off-white, cream, or soft flax. Subtle brass, bronze, or blackened iron hardware works nicely against the deep background, echoing the graphic clarity of the circular motifs without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on deep navy blue and soft, washed white. When decorating around it, crisp white woodwork, ceilings, and architectural trim highlight the freshness of the medallions.

For surrounding walls and larger surfaces, we suggest pairing this design with muted neutral paints such as soft linen, chalk white, or pale slate grey. If you want to introduce subtle tonal depth, surrounding accents in warm ochre, soft denim, or deep charcoal harmonize beautifully with the navy base without disrupting the tranquil feel of the room.
