Wallpaper - Across the Sound

Our Across the Sound wallpaper by Carson Overstreet captures a calm lakeside landscape at sunset, painted with an impressionistic sensibility. Soft apricot, orange and pink tones reflect across the water, set beneath a sky that transitions from delicate peach into greyish-blue. On the right, tall dark green trees provide height and structure against soft purple and blue woodland foliage in the distance, while lush green grass anchors the foreground. Made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this landscape wall mural brings a balanced horizon and natural depth to an interior.

In the room

Because the composition features an expansive horizontal view across water, we find this wall mural works exceptionally well on wider, uninterrupted walls. In a living room or dining room, placing the design along the main wall allows the full perspective from the rich foreground grass to the distant tree line to unfold naturally. In a bedroom or guest room, it creates a serene focal point behind a bed frame, where the soft sky tones sit comfortably at eye level. For a study, library or hallway staircase, the combination of earthy greens and sunset hues adds visual interest without overwhelming the space.

Styling it

We recommend keeping the surrounding furniture relatively grounded so the landscape mural remains the focal point of the room. Natural dark wood or warm mid-toned timber pairs naturally with the deep greens and earthy base notes of the trees. For upholstery and larger textiles, matte fabrics in muted clay, soft oatmeal or deep forest green provide a tailored counterpoint to the painterly brushstrokes. To balance the composition, low-profile seating or open shelving allows the horizontal water line to remain visible across the room.

Colour combinations

The palette within the design brings together warm apricot, peach and soft pink sunset reflections with deep woodland greens, purple-blue shadows and earthy grass tones. When selecting colours for adjacent walls, skirting or cabinetry, muted terracotta, warm stone or soft plaster pink will draw out the glow of the sunset sky. If you prefer a cooler, contrasting feel, subtle blue-grey or slate creates a sophisticated dialogue with the water and distant foliage.
