Wallpaper - New Mexico Calling I

Our New Mexico Calling I wallpaper mural, created with photographer Nathan Larson, captures an expansive desert landscape beneath a dramatic, cloud-filled sky. A distant rugged mountain range stretches across the horizon, grounding the wide desert plains below in earthy sand and warm ochre tones. Above, sweeping vintage-toned teal and muted blue skies are layered with soft, atmospheric clouds. The composition has an open, cinematic scale that brings an expansive sense of horizon into the home. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this mural is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because of its broad panoramic composition and strong horizontal horizon, we see this wall mural working particularly well across a wider, uninterrupted wall. In a living room, dining room, or bedroom, placing the design behind a low-profile sofa, dining table, or headboard allows the mountain ridge and vast sky above to remain completely in view. The open vertical expanse of clouds draws the eye upward, making it an engaging focal point in rooms with standard or high ceilings.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this landscape wallpaper with low-slung, grounded furniture that does not compete with the low horizon line of the desert plain. Natural, warm-toned woods such as walnut or aged oak echo the warmth of the desert terrain, while simple matte black metal accents or darkened iron can pick up on the deep shadowy contours of the distant rock formations. Keeping surrounding upholstery in textured neutral weaves or warm terracotta tones creates a balanced, cohesive interior.

Colour combinations

The palette in this design balances warm sand, dusty ochre, and deep mountain neutrals with moody teals, muted slate blues, and soft off-white cloud highlights. For surrounding walls and woodwork, we suggest warm off-whites, stony neutrals, or soft desert sands to gently extend the mural's natural ground. If you want a deeper contrast, pulling out the muted teal or charcoal tones from the mountain shadows onto adjacent trim or cabinetry adds depth without overwhelming the space.
