Wallpaper - Makeover I

Our Makeover I wallpaper by Chris Paschke brings a bold, contemporary composition to the wall through sweeping abstract form and graphic contrast. Set against a clean white ground, deep black shapes anchor the piece while an energetic, swirling brushstroke in shimmering gold tones carries visual movement across the centre. The balance between the dense, grounded geometry and the painterly, fluid gesture gives this design its distinct character. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this is one of our wall murals created to bring modern artistic focus to an interior.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room or a dedicated home office. Because the abstract composition relies on a clear focal point and generous negative space, we recommend giving it an uninterrupted wall where the central sweep can unfold without being cut off by tall bookcases or bulky shelving. In a living room, placing this mural wallpaper behind a low sofa or credenza allows the full balance of the black and gold elements to stay visible. For a study or home workspace, positioning it across from the desk creates an inspiring backdrop that defines the room without overwhelming the eye.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the clear protagonist in the room, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined furniture and a considered approach to materials:

• Choose low-profile seating and storage in minimalist or contemporary silhouettes to maintain the openness of the white ground.
• Introduce dark metal accents or warm metallic hardware that echo the tonal character of the gold and black elements in the design.
• Opt for understated upholstery and plain floor coverings so competing patterns do not distract from the central brushwork.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a high-contrast palette of solid black, dynamic gold, and crisp white. To create a cohesive setting around our wallpaper, we suggest keeping adjacent walls in an off-white, light warm grey, or soft parchment tone that complements the background. For larger furniture, deep charcoal, matte black, or warm caramel upholstery will pick up the darker shapes and metallic tones of the artwork, grounding the space beautifully.
