Wallpaper - Going it Alone III

In this landscape design by Nathan Larson, a solitary, rugged desert mountain rises calmly above a sweeping plain. The composition carries an open, atmospheric stillness, with muted earth tones, soft lavender-grey shadows across the ridges, and a pale, hazy sky. The low foreground scrub and subtle horizontal tilt-shift blur give the scene gentle depth without overwhelming contrast. Our made-to-measure mural wallpapers are PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure, making them straightforward to hang while creating a serene, expansive focal point in your home.

In the room

We see this wall mural working particularly well on an open, uninterrupted wall in a living room, bedroom, or quiet home office. Because the motif is anchored by a broad mountain horizon, giving it generous wall width allows the full expanse of the landscape to breathe. In a bedroom, placing this design behind a low headboard creates a restful, open backdrop that draws the eye across the room. In a living room or dining area with ample natural daylight, the softer tonal shifts between the dusty purples, warm beige, and pale sky become especially clear.

Styling it

To complement the calm, open character of this design, we would pair it with low-profile furniture that keeps the horizon line prominent. Low-slung seating in tactile, neutral fabrics such as unbleached cotton or textured wool works beautifully against the soft plains in the foreground.

For surrounding materials, we like bringing in warm, understated timber, like light oak or ash, alongside matte blackened metal or stoneware ceramics. Keeping the decorative objects simple and grounded prevents the space from feeling cluttered, allowing the quiet scale of the scenery to lead the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself features a refined palette of muted desert tones: dusty mauve, warm sand, pale taupe, and hazy off-white in the sky. When painting adjacent walls or trim, soft limestone, chalky off-whites, or warm greys will create a seamless, cohesive backdrop. If you prefer to draw out the deeper shadows of the ridge, accenting nearby joinery, cushions, or artwork frames with earthy charcoal, deep espresso, or warm tobacco brings a considered, grounding depth to the overall space.
