Wallpaper - Good Side

A striking photographic portrait by Nathan Larson, our Good Side wallpaper presents a close-up profile of a duck set against a moody, textured dark backdrop. The fine detail of the white feathers and the smooth curve of the neck create an arresting focal point, balancing clean natural form with dramatic contrast. Printed as a made-to-measure design on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings an unexpected, artful presence to the wall.

In the room

Because of the close crop and large visual scale of the subject, we see this wall mural working particularly well as an accent wall where the portrait has room to command attention. In an entryway or hallway, it offers an immediate, graphic welcome that feels both characterful and refined. In a living room or a study, placing it on a main wall behind low-profile seating keeps the detailed feather work and expressive eye in clear view without feeling crowded by surrounding furniture.

Styling it

To balance the strong profile and monochrome aesthetic, we would pair this wallpaper with understated, tactile elements rather than competing patterns.

• Choose furniture with clean, minimalist silhouettes in dark wood or matte black metal to echo the deep tones of the background.
• Bring in textured textiles such as unbleached linen or bouclé in off-white tones to complement the soft detail of the plumage.
• Keep wall decor on adjacent walls minimal, allowing the photographic scale of the mural wallpaper to serve as the primary visual anchor in the space.

Colour combinations

The design centres on crisp white, soft ivory, and charcoal grey, set against an atmospheric, deep sepia-tinted dark background. To create a cohesive palette around it, consider painting adjacent walls in a muted off-white, chalky charcoal, or deep olive green. Natural timber tones and neutral stone accents also work well alongside the gentle tonal gradation of the photograph.
