Wallpaper - Time Lapse I

Created by artist Cheryl Warrick, our Time Lapse I wallpaper brings together abstract organic shapes, delicate oil paint marks, and layered collage textures. The composition balances grounding earthy brown tones with crisp white accents, creating a calm sense of depth and visual history across the surface. What we particularly like is how the fluid forms and painterly details give the impression of an expansive gallery piece. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings an expressive, contemporary character to any interior.

In the room

Because of its painterly depth and layered composition, we think Time Lapse I works wonderfully as a focal point on an open, uninterrupted living room wall where the organic forms have space to breathe. The earthy palette also makes it a natural fit for a study, home office, or quiet reading den, where the artistic marks add interest without overwhelming the room.

In a bedroom or dressing room, placing the design behind the bedhead creates an inviting, grounded backdrop. It also works well in transitional spaces like an entry, hallway, or staircase, where visitors can appreciate the finer textural marks up close as they move through the home. For dining rooms and kitchens, the collage-like character adds an artistic sophistication around dining tables or open shelving.

Styling it

To complement the contemporary and eclectic feel of this design, we suggest pairing it with furniture that balances clean silhouettes and rich textures:

• Choose warm wood furniture, such as walnut, teak, or mid-toned oak, which naturally echoes the earthy brown shapes in the artwork.
• Introduce neutral upholstery in woven fabrics, bouclé, or relaxed linen to keep the overall seating scheme soft and tactile.
• Incorporate subtle black metal or dark bronze hardware and lighting fixtures to ground the lighter areas of the pattern.
• Style with minimalist ceramics and curated tabletop objects that echo the organic, curved shapes of the motif.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on warm earthy browns, soft clay undertones, and bright white highlights. To create a cohesive look across adjacent walls and woodwork, we recommend pairing the design with soft off-whites, warm biscuit neutrals, or muted taupe tones.

If you prefer richer contrast, deep charcoal or warm espresso shades on skirting boards, doors, or cabinetry will pick up on the darker oil paint elements. For accessories and accent textiles, dusty terracottas, muted ochres, and natural unbleached fabrics work effortlessly with the composition.
