Wallpaper - Cryptid Tourism III

Designed in collaboration with Omar Escalante, our Cryptid Tourism III wallpaper captures the atmosphere of vintage travel posters and Scottish folklore. The illustration centres on a serpent-like Loch Ness monster emerging from calm waters, accompanied by a small rowing boat, layered pine silhouettes, and rugged mountain peaks. Earthy forest greens and warm orange accents define the palette, complemented by stylised typography referencing the Scottish Highlands. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making them straightforward to hang.

In the room

With its strong graphic framing and narrative composition, this design works especially well as an accent wall in a living room, study, or home library. The retro poster layout naturally draws the eye, making it well suited to a main wall behind a desk, sofa, or reading corner where the central lake scene remains largely uninterrupted. We also see this mural wallpaper fitting comfortably into a den or a teenager's bedroom, offering a playful, adventurous character without overwhelming the surrounding space.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this wallpaper with warm, natural interior elements that echo its vintage, rustic aesthetic. Rich or mid-toned woods work nicely alongside the deep forest greens, while leather seating or understated upholstery keeps the focus on the artwork. Because the design has clear graphic lines and bold vintage typography, keeping surrounding wall decor minimal allows the illustration to hold the room naturally.

Colour combinations

The illustration is built around earthy tones, featuring deep forest greens, muted lake blues, warm ochre orange, and soft off-white text. To create a cohesive palette, we suggest pairing it with surrounding walls in muted moss green, warm stone, or off-white. Furniture and accents in burnt orange, tan, or deep amber can gently pick up on the warmer highlights in the sky and lettering.
