Wallpaper - Forest Study I

Designed by Lisa Audit, our Forest Study I wallpaper captures the tranquil atmosphere of a woodland canopy through an impressionistic, painterly style. Slender birch and tree trunks in warm, earthy browns rise vertically through the composition, grounding the scene. Above, textured dabs of fern green, ochre yellow, soft blue and warm orange form an airy canopy that filters the pale, luminous background. The visible brushstrokes and soft focus create a dreamy, layered sense of depth without feeling heavy. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a quiet, artistic connection to nature onto the wall.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully across a main wall in a living room or a dedicated meditation space. The vertical rhythm of the slender tree trunks naturally draws the eye upwards, making it especially effective in rooms with standard or lower ceilings where you want to add a sense of height. Because the upper foliage is dappled with sky-like blues and soft pale tones, the overall composition remains open and light rather than dense or enclosing. In an open-plan living area, placing this wallpaper on a feature wall behind a low sofa allows the full verticality of the trees to remain visible while anchoring the seating zone.

Styling it

To let the impressionistic artwork stand out, we suggest pairing it with furniture that has clean, understated silhouettes and quiet textures. Low-profile seating in neutral fabrics, such as unbleached cotton or oatmeal twill, complements the soft background tones without competing with the painted foliage. Surrounding wooden furniture in warm, natural tones or lightly stained timber echoes the earthy shades of the tree trunks, while keeping metallic accents minimal and matte preserves the organic, painterly mood.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres around earthy fern greens and warm tree-bark browns, enriched by subtle touches of ochre, soft sky blue and warm amber. When decorating around this wallpaper, we recommend drawing out the pale, muted background with soft off-white or chalky linen tones on neighbouring walls and woodwork. If you prefer deeper contrast, accents in muted olive, moss green or deep forest tones will ground the space and tie directly into the darker leaves of the canopy.
