Wallpaper - Catching Air

A snowboarder hangs suspended mid-air against an open winter sky in this dynamic photographic wall mural by Max Blakesberg Studios. Frozen at the apex of a jump, the rider grabs their black snowboard clad in a blue, white, and black jacket paired with warm tan trousers. Softly blurred mountain ridges and forested slopes sit low in the frame, lending vertical scale and giving the central jump maximum breathing room. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the primary subject is positioned high with generous open sky above and soft mountain silhouettes below, we would place this design on a main feature wall where the sense of height can fully register. It works brilliantly in a teenage room, a hobby room, or a contemporary living room. In rooms with standard ceiling heights, the upward motion helps draw the eye vertically, while on a wide uninterrupted wall, the clean white backdrop keeps the space feeling expansive rather than crowded.

Styling it

We recommend keeping surrounding furniture clean and unfussy so the visual momentum of the jump remains the focal point. Low-profile pieces, such as a low platform bed or a streamlined sofa, ensure the snowboarder remains completely visible above the headrest or back cushions. Matte black metal accents in lighting or shelving pick up the deep tones of the board, gloves, and helmet, creating a crisp graphic link across the interior.

Colour combinations

The palette within our wallpaper is grounded in clean snow whites, cool slate blues, and deep black, lifted by the warm mustard-tan of the rider's trousers. For adjoining walls, we suggest matching the crisp off-white sky tone for a seamless transition, or introducing a muted charcoal to anchor the room. To draw out the subtle warmth in the clothing, accents in camel, tan leather, or light natural timber create a balanced contrast against the cool alpine backdrop.
