Wallpaper - Junk

Captured by Jan Becke, our Junk wall mural presents a traditional red-sailed junk boat gliding across the open waters of Victoria Harbour against the towering Hong Kong skyline. The composition balances the detailed architectural skyline and Victoria Peak with the soft, warm glow of sunset breaking across the water. Cool aquatic blues and neutral urban tones are punctuated by the rich terracotta-red sails, creating a scenic view with remarkable atmospheric depth. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

This panoramic mural wallpaper naturally establishes a focal point in a living room or home study. The wide horizon line and expansive water in the foreground give the design an open, airy presence on an uninterrupted feature wall. In a living room, placing this design behind a low sofa keeps the harbour scenery visible while allowing the skyline to rise comfortably above eye level. In a dedicated study, positioning the mural along a main accent wall brings an expansive, contemplative atmosphere to the workspace.

Styling it

To complement the rich architectural detail and coastal tones of the wallpaper, we recommend pairing it with streamlined furniture that lets the harbour vista take centre stage. Clean-lined silhouettes in dark wood or charcoal metal echo the vertical forms of the skyscrapers without competing with the overall scene.

For surrounding textures, opt for smooth, unpatterned fabrics or subtle woven upholstery in cool grey or navy. Keeping large decorative elements understated ensures the striking silhouette of the red sails remains the clear anchor in the room.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design centres around atmospheric ocean blue, pale sky tones, neutral greys, and the distinctive terracotta-red of the sails. On surrounding walls, adjacent joinery, or skirting boards, softer muted tones such as pale coastal grey, warm off-white, or slate blue will blend seamlessly with the mural's edges. If you wish to draw out a subtle accent note, smaller decorative pieces in terracotta or warm rust will tie directly back to the boat sails.
