Wallpaper - In the Distance

Our In the Distance wallpaper mural brings the quiet depth of Maggie Sackmann’s abstract landscape into the home. Broad, painterly brushstrokes divide the composition between an expansive cloudy sky in pale grey and soft blue tones and a grounded foreground rich with deep moss greens, earthy ochres, and muted rose accents. The oil paint-inspired visual texture and gentle horizontal flow give our wall murals a calm, contemplative character that opens up the room. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free material, this mural wallpaper adds refined artistic balance to any interior.

In the room

Because the horizon line sits midway across the artwork, this design works especially well on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full breadth of the landscape can unfold. In a living room behind a low sofa or in a bedroom behind a headboard, the darker green and earthy lower section provides a visual anchor while the open sky lifts the upper portion of the wall. In a study or home office, we find the gentle, low-contrast blending creates an engaging backdrop that feels quiet rather than distracting. The composition also suits dining rooms and hallway staircases where longer viewing distances let the painterly brushwork resolve into an atmospheric panoramic view.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this design with furniture that shares its organic, grounded feel. Low-profile seating and streamlined wooden pieces in mid-toned or darker timber balance the heavier greens in the lower half of the mural without competing with the brushwork.

To keep the focus on the artwork, select unpatterned textiles such as soft wool throws or woven upholstery in stone or oat tones. Simple ceramic table lamps or matte black metal accents bring just enough definition to the room while allowing the painterly transitions of the wallpaper to remain the central feature.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a palette of cloud grey, pale sky blue, muted moss greens, deep forest tones, and warm, sandy terracotta.

To create a cohesive scheme around the mural, we suggest pulling the paler grey-white from the sky onto adjacent walls and ceiling surfaces. For a richer, more enveloping feel, deeper olive or moss tones on surrounding woodwork or painted cabinetry pick up the darkest shades in the landscape. Neutral textiles in ecru, oatmeal, or soft grey linen sit effortlessly alongside the motif, while small touches of terracotta or warm ochre in cushions or decorative objects echo the subtle brushstrokes across the foreground.
