Wallpaper - Artifact I Orange

Our Artifact I Orange wallpaper brings together sweeping white curved arcs and partial circles across a vibrant burnt orange background. Created by Mike Schick, this bold abstract design draws on mid-century and retro artistic influences, balancing smooth, saturated warm tones with expressive painted-looking forms. The large geometric scale gives the composition an energetic rhythm that instantly establishes visual character across a wall. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, each order is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in a living room or a dedicated home office where you want the walls to carry confident artistic energy. Because the curved motifs and geometric arches are large in scale, we would give this wallpaper a generous, relatively uninterrupted wall so the movement across the composition has plenty of space to unfold. In a living room, placing it along a main feature wall behind a low sofa allows the sweeping white shapes to remain visible rather than being cut off by tall furniture. In a study or home work space, the warm burnt orange background creates an inviting, characterful setting that feels dynamic throughout the working day.

Styling it

To let the graphic strength of the wallpaper take center stage, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture clean-lined and mid-century modern in feel. Low-profile pieces in warm woods such as teak, walnut, or warm oak echo the 1960s inspiration of the artwork while grounding the vibrant background.

For accents and lighting, matte black metal fixtures or subtle brass details introduce a crisp contrast against the sweeping white curves without competing with the bold forms.

Colour combinations

The palette starts with the deep, warm burnt orange background paired with crisp, textured off-white forms. When decorating the surrounding space, soft warm neutrals, creams, and warm off-whites work naturally on adjacent painted walls and woodwork, picking up the white elements within the design. For a richer, grounded contrast, deep charcoal, espresso, or dark olive green accents across upholstery and cabinetry sit comfortably alongside the burnt orange base.
