Wallpaper - Broken Tales

Captured by photographer Andreas Agazzi, our Broken Tales wall mural captures the dramatic expanse of rugged salt flats reaching towards distant mountain ridges. The composition balances the intricate, crystalline ridges of cracked earth in the foreground with a dense, cloud-filled sky illuminated by a subtle sliver of warm dawn light on the horizon. Rendered in atmospheric dark slate, charcoal, and cool grey tones, this landscape photograph brings striking perspective and depth to interior spaces. Printed to order on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, our wallpapers are made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions.

In the room

The sweeping horizontal perspective of this mural wallpaper makes it particularly effective on wide, uninterrupted walls where the depth of the landscape can unfold naturally. In a living room or home office, installing it behind a sofa or low desk keeps the dramatic cracked foreground visible while allowing the distant mountain horizon to open up the room visually. It also creates a contemplative backdrop for a dedicated reading area or home library, where the moody atmosphere and dark palette add quiet character without visual clutter.

Styling it

Because this design carries strong visual interest through its detailed foreground and moody sky, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture relatively quiet. Low-profile seating and streamlined desks work particularly well, ensuring the wide horizon remains the focal point of the space.

Combining this mural with clean, contemporary silhouettes allows the organic, jagged textures of the landscape to stand out. Simple blackened steel or dark bronze architectural elements echo the deeper tones in the clouds, whilst upholstery in smooth, unpatterned fabrics creates a balanced contrast against the rugged landscape motif.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design centres on deep charcoal, slate grey, and dusty white salt deposits, punctuated by a thin band of soft amber along the distant horizon. When choosing colours for surrounding walls and woodwork, muted off-whites, cool greys, or rich charcoal tones create a seamless, cohesive backdrop. If you wish to bring out the subtle warmth at the horizon, small accents in warm rust, ochre, or burnt orange in cushions or decorative ceramics will highlight that delicate break of light.
