Wallpaper - Masquerade Ghosts

Our Masquerade Ghosts wallpaper, designed by Yvette St. Amant, brings together playful gothic charm and graphic illustration. Three floating white ghostly figures drift across an intense black background, each disguised in an ornate black masquerade mask detailed with swirling floral patterns. Subtle grey lace-patterned bows float quietly behind the figures, adding delicate depth to the stark, high-contrast composition. The flowing sheet silhouettes give the figures an airy, whimsical quality that balances the darker palette. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wallpaper with a subtle paper texture, this design offers an expressive aesthetic for spaces that embrace eclectic character.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a teenage room, an expressive playroom, or a creative study that leans into a whimsical or eclectic interior style. Because the deep black ground creates immediate contrast with the brilliant white ghost figures, we like using this design on an accent wall where the motif can act as the main visual anchor. In a long or narrow room, placing it on the shorter end wall helps ground the space without overwhelming the surrounding area. The clean graphic silhouettes remain readable even across a wall partly framed by low shelving or a desk, while an uninterrupted surface lets the floating composition show its full theatrical effect.

Styling it

The distinct black and white contrast and theatrical masquerade theme invite a confident approach to interior styling:

• We would pair this wallpaper with contemporary painted furniture in matte black, crisp off-white, or deep charcoal to reinforce the graphic clarity of the design.
• To balance the bold graphic lines, we suggest introducing tactile textiles such as velvet cushions, heavy wool throws, or soft textured curtains that soften the high contrast across the room.
• In an eclectic or maximalist setting, subtle dark metallic accents like blackened steel or aged brass hardware complement the masquerade mask details without competing for attention.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on brilliant white and deep black, softened by gentle mid-grey accents in the lace bow detailing. Around this mural wallpaper, we suggest keeping adjacent painted walls in a soft off-white or light cool grey to let the dark background stand out naturally. For a moodier, enveloping room scheme, matching adjoining surfaces with charcoal or off-black paint creates an intimate backdrop where the white silhouettes take centre stage. Muted jewel tones on upholstery, such as deep plum or dark forest green, also work comfortably alongside this monochrome base.
