Wallpaper - Explore the World I

Our Explore the World I wallpaper, created by Veronique Charron, interprets the world map through a soft, painterly lens. Continents emerge in washes of sea green, earthy terracotta, ochre, and muted slate blue against a textured, warm off-white background. Sprinkled dots, subtle dashes, and faint compass rose details in the corners add a gentle sense of exploration without cluttering the composition. Printed to your specific dimensions on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it brings a calm and artistic presence to the wall while remaining straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because a world map naturally invites you to look across its full expanse, we see this mural wallpaper working particularly well on a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall. In a home study or a dedicated home library, positioning the design behind a low desk, reading chair, or low-profile shelving allows the continental outlines and soft colour transitions to remain clearly visible. The relaxed, painterly approach avoids the rigid precision of conventional cartography, giving the room a thoughtful and serene atmosphere rather than a formal academic feel.

Styling it

We would pair this wall mural with natural interior materials and relaxed furniture forms. Lighter woods or mid-toned timber pieces sit comfortably alongside the warm background, while seating upholstered in plain, natural weaves complements the earthy palette without competing with the map. Keeping surrounding wall decor minimal allows the expansive motif to act as the primary visual focus in the space.

Colour combinations

The design features an earthy and sea-inspired palette built around muted sea green, soft terracotta, warm ochre, slate blue, and a creamy off-white backdrop. When decorating around our wallpaper, we suggest drawing out the off-white or soft warm stone tones for adjacent painted walls and woodwork to maintain an open feel. For furniture, textiles, or decorative accents, subtle touches of muted green, rust, or warm terracotta will naturally tie the surrounding room to the continents.
