Wallpaper - Dusk and Pastel II

Our Dusk and Pastel II wallpaper by Chris Paschke brings together fluid watercolour forms and soft horizontal movement, reminiscent of a quiet horizon reflected across still water. Gentle washes of blush pink, peach, and soft green are grounded by deeper navy tones and subtle golden accents, giving the abstract composition a layered, painterly depth. What we particularly appreciate about this design is the balance between its flowing, open areas and the finer textural details throughout the paintwork. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure according to your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We see this design working especially well across a broader, uninterrupted wall where the full horizontal sweep of the watercolour motif can unfold naturally. In a bedroom, placing the mural behind the bed creates an enveloping, tranquil focal point without overwhelming the rest of the space. In a living room or dedicated meditation space, the fluid transitions between pastel tones and deeper navy provide enough visual interest to anchor the room while keeping the atmosphere quiet and composed. Because the pattern relies on soft washes rather than a dense, repeating graphic, it feels open and calm even when used across a larger surface area.

Styling it

To let the artwork set the mood of the room, we would keep the surrounding interior relatively simple and grounded in natural forms.

• Choose low-profile furniture with clean, soft lines so the horizontal flow of the landscape motif remains unobstructed across the wall.
• Pair the design with warm wood tones, such as natural ash or light oak, which complement the peach and blush tones without competing with the darker navy sections.
• Introduce tactile textiles in unpatterned, matte finishes to balance the fluid, painterly texture of the wallpaper.

Colour combinations

The design centres on a delicate palette of blush pink, peach, and muted green, contrasted by darker navy passages and warm gold highlights. When decorating around this wallpaper, pulling the softer blush or pale peach into adjacent painted walls or neutral upholstery creates a gentle, harmonious transition. If you prefer more definition, echoing the deeper navy in a small accent piece or dark woodwork provides a grounding counterpoint that emphasizes the lighter washes of the painting.
