Wallpaper - Closer to the Heart

Our Closer to the Heart wallpaper by Pamela Munger brings together expressive, gestural brushstrokes across a soft blush pink backdrop. What we particularly like about this design is the confident balance between deep forest green, warm earthy brown, rich black, and layered tones of pink, white, and subtle lilac. The composition has the visual character of an abstract oil painting, pairing broad, sweeping sweeps of colour with defined edges and painted textures that give the wall genuine artistic depth and rhythm. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the scale of the brushwork is broad and expressive, we think this wallpaper works wonderfully on a larger, relatively uninterrupted feature wall in a living room or behind a bed in a master bedroom. The fluid movement of the strokes draws the eye across the space, giving the room a natural focal point without feeling chaotic. In a dining room or a dedicated home office, the interplay between the deep greens and soft pastel pinks introduces warmth and creative energy. For dressing rooms or wider hallways, we find the painterly quality adds an immediate sense of curated personality, especially where the wall can be viewed from several angles.

Styling it

We recommend letting the expressive painterly forms of the mural wallpaper set the tone, surrounding it with furniture that has clean, grounded silhouettes. Mid-century modern sideboards or contemporary Scandinavian seating with low profiles ensure the artwork remains the primary visual focus.

To complement the rich contrast in the pattern, we would pair the wall with warm natural woods like walnut or mid-toned oak. For surrounding soft furnishings, matte woven textiles in muted oatmeal or deep forest green balance the soft blush ground beautifully, while subtle blackened metal or aged bronze accents pick up on the darker gestural marks within the design.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on a delicate blush pink background layered with deep evergreen, rich cocoa brown, charcoal black, and gentle hints of lilac and off-white.

When choosing colours for adjacent walls, woodwork, or cabinetry, soft chalky off-whites and pale blush tones keep the room light and cohesive. If you prefer a more cocooning scheme, drawing out the deep green or warm earth brown for surrounding trim or built-in joinery creates a sophisticated, design-led contrast.
