Wallpaper - Walking in Paris

Illustrated by Lovisa Burfitt, our Walking in Paris wallpaper captures an expressive fashion sketch rendered in confident ink-style lines. The motif features a stylish woman in a sweeping black coat and vibrant cherry red gloves strolling with her dog against a sketched Parisian backdrop, complete with the Eiffel Tower, birds in flight, and an Art Nouveau Métropolitain entrance. The high contrast between the monochrome street scene and the popping red details gives this design an artistic, editorial character that immediately draws the eye. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it brings graphic energy and Parisian elegance to the wall.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as an expressive statement in a dressing room, a hallway, or a creative home studio. Because the illustration carries a strong narrative focus and bold vertical movement, we recommend placing it on a relatively clear, uninterrupted wall where the full figure and architectural details can be appreciated without tall furniture breaking the composition. In an entryway or dressing area, the dynamic linework creates an inviting, cosmopolitan feel as soon as you step inside. If you are styling a larger open space or a bedroom, pairing it with simpler adjacent walls allows the bold black, white, and cherry red palette to stand out without competing with the rest of the room.

Styling it

To complement the graphic, fashion-forward mood of our mural wallpapers, we suggest pairing this design with clean-lined contemporary furniture that lets the illustration remain the focal point.

• Combine the wallpaper with sleek black accents, such as a slim console table, a minimal clothes rail, or understated metal frames that echo the black ink lines of the motif.
• Introduce tactile soft furnishings in natural cream, crisp white, or light grey to balance the high contrast of the artwork while keeping the overall setting calm and tailored.
• Echo the cherry red gloves sparingly through a single accent piece, such as a lacquered tray, a sculptural vase, or a statement lamp base, tying the room together without overwhelming the space.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is defined by a striking palette of jet black, soft white, and vivid cherry red. When decorating around this design, we love extending the neutral foundation with warm off-whites, soft charcoal, or pale dove grey on adjacent walls, woodwork, and larger upholstery. These quiet tones let the monochrome architecture and sketchy lines breathe. For an intentionally dramatic touch, small accents in crimson, poppy, or deep berry will pick up on the red gloves and bring added warmth to the space.
