Wallpaper - Equine II Industrial

A horse's head emerges from the darkness in this striking design by James Wiens, painted in textured russet and earthy brown tones against a deep black background. The silhouette captures the bold profile of the horse, framed by painted brushwork along the edges that gives the piece an expressive, moody character. The rich contrast between the warm, rust-like orange tones and the solid dark base creates an arresting focal point on the wall. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure and PVC-free, featuring a subtle physical structure in the paper that complements the artwork's painted feel.

In the room

Because this design features a large-scale graphic silhouette with high contrast, we see it working particularly well as a dramatic feature wall. In a living room or a dedicated home art studio, positioning the horse profile on an uninterrupted wall allows the full scale of the artwork to make its visual statement without competing elements. The dark base creates an intimate atmosphere, making it well suited to spaces where you want depth and mood rather than bright, open neutrality.

Styling it

To balance the bold presence of this mural wallpaper, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean in form so the wall remains the primary focus. Low-profile seating and unadorned surfaces work naturally here, allowing the equine silhouette to anchor the room.

Matte black metal accents complement the dark background, while warm, unpolished woods such as smoked oak or dark timber echo the earthy, rust-toned brushwork.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres on rich russet brown, rusty orange, and deep black. To build a cohesive palette around the wall mural, consider pairing it with warm neutrals such as charcoal, warm stone, or muted terracotta on adjacent walls and woodwork. Deep olive tones and burnt sienna also harmonize naturally with the earthy pigments in the horse's silhouette, creating a grounded and sophisticated interior.
