Wallpaper - About Face II White

Our About Face II White wallpaper brings a graphic, contemporary sensibility to the wall through a single continuous black line drawn across a clean porcelain white ground. Created by Moira Hershey, the abstract portrait captures the contours of an eye, nose, lips, and ear in one fluid ink-style motion. The generous white space around the motif gives the drawing room to breathe, creating a gallery-like focal point with a restrained, artistic character. Made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this design is straightforward to hang and easy to live with.

In the room

Because the composition relies on an expansive white background balanced by a single continuous line, we find this wall mural works best on a wall where the graphic artwork can be appreciated without heavy visual clutter. In a living room or home office study, placing it on the main feature wall behind a low-backed sofa, credenza, or desk allows the full abstract face to remain in clear view. The high contrast of black on white gives it an immediate presence across larger open-plan spaces, yet the simplicity of the line keeps it from overwhelming smaller rooms or creative art studios.

Styling it

We like pairing this minimalist line art with interiors that celebrate clean forms and honest materials.

• Choose low-profile furniture with clean geometric profiles, such as a sleek low sofa, simple shelving, or a slim wooden desk, to let the scale of the face drawing lead the space.
• Introduce warm wood tones or quiet neutral upholstery to soften the stark monochrome contrast without introducing competing patterns.
• Keep decorative accents deliberate and sculptural, using matte ceramics or subtle black metal details that echo the fluid ink line work of the motif.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper is intentionally pure, defined by deep black line work set against a porcelain white backdrop. When building a palette around this design, we suggest keeping adjacent walls in matching chalky whites or soft neutral off-whites to let the wallpaper feel like a natural extension of the architecture. For furniture and accents, quiet charcoal, warm taupe, or soft grey help bridge the crisp black-and-white contrast, while muted earth tones like ochre, terracotta, or olive can introduce warmth while preserving the design's calm, modern aesthetic.
