Wallpaper - Through the Snowstorm

Through the Snowstorm captures the silhouette of a wild goose in mid-flight against a textured sky filled with falling snow. Designed by Nathan Larson, this photographic wallpaper relies on a stark, atmospheric contrast between the dark form of the bird and the mottled grey and off-white tones of the winter atmosphere. The speckled grain of the snowflakes creates a dense visual texture that softens the background, giving the scene quiet motion and graphic presence. Our mural wallpapers are made-to-measure and PVC-free, with a subtle structure in the paper that complements the photographic detail.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room, bedroom, or home study where the solitary silhouette can serve as an expressive visual focal point. Because the bird is positioned off-centre, surrounded by generous open sky and falling snow, the composition benefits from an uninterrupted wall space where the full flight path has room to breathe. In a bedroom, placing this wallpaper on the wall behind the headboard allows the upper composition to remain visible while anchoring the room in calm, monochromatic tones.

Styling it

The monochromatic palette and photographic grain make this wallpaper exceptionally versatile across contemporary, minimalist, and Nordic-inspired interiors. To balance the cool greys and graphic black silhouette, we suggest pairing it with warm, natural wood furniture, such as light oak or walnut, which softens the visual crispness of the scene.

Keep surrounding upholstery and textiles relatively quiet in texture and tone, opting for neutral greys, charcoal, or off-white wool and linen weaves. Matte black accents in lighting fixtures or minimalist metal frames will subtly echo the silhouette of the bird without overwhelming the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is grounded in a restrained palette of deep charcoal black, soft cool greys, and muted off-white. When painting adjoining walls, a soft chalky white or a pale warm grey creates a gentle transition that lets the mural take centre stage. For a bolder, more enveloping feel, dark charcoal or slate grey paint on adjacent trims and doors can echo the deepest tones of the flying bird.
