Wallpaper - Medicine Bow Moose II

Medicine Bow Moose II brings a quiet wilderness atmosphere into the home through timeless photographic portraiture. Captured by Nathan Larson, this wildlife design centres on a large moose standing in an open field, defined by its broad antlers, dark textured coat, and distinctive dewlap. The photographic composition balances the strong presence of the animal against a softly blurred backdrop of grass and foliage, lending natural depth to the scene. Rendered in a rich palette of sepia, earthy brown, and dark chocolate tones, this mural wallpaper offers a nostalgic 19th-century photographic character. Like all Wallism wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure, PVC-free, and printed on paper with a subtle surface structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the moose commands considerable visual presence, we see this wall mural working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the full photograph can be appreciated without being broken up by doorways or tall shelving. In a living room, placing it behind a low-profile sofa allows the animal's antlers and the open horizon to sit comfortably within the line of sight. The peaceful, earthy character also suits a cosy lodge-style sitting room, cabin retreat, or a quiet study area. In rooms with gentle, indirect natural light or warm evening lamps, the tonal transitions between the dark chocolate coat and the warm sepia background feel especially grounding and enveloping.

Styling it

To balance the photographic depth of the design, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture relatively straightforward and grounded in character:

• Choose warm or medium-toned natural timber furniture, such as stained pine, reclaimed wood, or antique oak, which naturally echoes the earthy heritage mood of the sepia photograph.
• Introduce understated upholstery in heavy woven textiles, such as tweed, wool, or matte leather in muted tan, charcoal, or forest green to complement the rustic Americana feel.
• Keep wall decor on adjacent walls minimal to allow the photographic mural to serve as the central visual anchor in the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is grounded in a cohesive monochromatic palette of warm sepia, dark chocolate, and earthy brown shades. When choosing paint colours for surrounding walls, skirtings, or woodwork, we suggest looking to soft off-whites with warm undertones, muted oatmeals, or warm mushroom greys to maintain an open and calm interior. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel across the entire room, deeper shades of umber, bitter chocolate, or smoky taupe on adjacent surfaces will create a seamless, cohesive backdrop that frames the design naturally.
