Wallpaper - By My Side

Our By My Side wallpaper by artist Jeanette Vertentes brings an expressive, painterly energy to the wall. At the centre of the composition sit two large, stylised blooms with cream and white petals accented by splashes of vivid pink, yellow, and blue. Thick, textured-looking oil brushstrokes give the surrounding foliage of rich greens, purples, and deep blues a vibrant sense of movement against a dynamic, multicoloured backdrop. Made-to-measure and completely PVC-free, this design features a subtle paper structure that complements its artistic character.

In the room

Because the two blooms form a commanding focal point, we see this wall mural working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the full artwork can unfold without being clipped. In a living room or dining room, positioning the wallpaper behind a sofa or dining table anchors the space with genuine artistic presence. The energetic brushwork and rich palette also suit a bedroom, dressing room, or a creative home office studio, where the bold colours bring an uplifting, expressive mood to the room without feeling visually crowded.

Styling it

We recommend letting the mural wallpapers lead the scheme, keeping larger surrounding furniture grounded with clean, contemporary profiles. Mid-century modern or contemporary eclectic furnishings work wonderfully here, particularly pieces with softer curved outlines that echo the rounded shapes of the petals. Warm wood furniture, such as honey-toned oak or teak, provides an organic balance to the expressive paint textures without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

The design features a rich palette of cream and white lifted by popping pink, sunny yellow, sky blue, forest green, and violet. When selecting surrounding paint colours, pulling a warm cream or soft off-white from the base petals onto neighbouring walls keeps the room feeling cohesive and airy. For a bolder, more enveloping interior, you could draw out the deep botanical green or moody purple for painted woodwork, window trims, or accent textiles.
