Wallpaper - Tempest

In our Tempest wallpaper, created by Pamela Munger, dynamic brushstrokes capture the expressive drama of swirling clouds meeting a turbulent horizon. The composition balances open, airy sweeps of pale gray and off-white in the upper sky with deeper steel blue, slate, and charcoal tones below, enriched by subtle hints of pale orange along the horizon. With its painted oil texture and fluid visual motion, this seascape-inspired mural wallpaper introduces depth and artistic character to an accent wall. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a bedroom or a quiet meditation space where the cool, steel blue tones and broad atmospheric landscape can anchor the room. Because the visual movement flows horizontally across the lower half with deeper pigment before opening into lighter brushwork above, placing it behind a low bed frame or a streamlined sofa allows the full vertical shift in tone to remain visible. In a living room, giving this mural wallpaper a wide, uninterrupted wall allows the sweeping gestures of the sky to stretch out without feeling crowded by high storage units.

Styling it

The expressive painterly style and cool palette connect naturally with organic modern and contemporary interiors. To keep the focus on the artwork, we suggest pairing it with furniture featuring clean profiles, low silhouettes, and unvarnished natural textures. Warm wood tones, such as pale ash or natural oak, create a balanced contrast against the slate and steel blue base, while soft, unpatterned fabrics in off-white or oatmeal echo the lighter brush marks in the upper sky.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design centres on cool steel blue, soft gray, and crisp white, grounded by deep slate and touched with pale apricot and orange near the horizon line. Around the mural, we suggest working with muted neutrals such as chalky off-white, pebble gray, or soft greige on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want to lean into the deeper values, bringing a dark charcoal or navy accent through low furniture or smaller decorative pieces will draw out the rich tones at the base of the design.
