Wallpaper - The Monarch

Our The Monarch wallpaper captures the quiet grandeur of snow-covered peaks set against a clear blue sky. Photographed by Jim Wiebe, the composition highlights the dramatic contrast between sharp, dark rock ridges and deep snow drifts, with soft clouds drifting naturally between the summits. Scattered alpine trees across the lower slopes add a sense of real scale and depth to the landscape. We make our wall murals to measure, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure that brings out the fine details of the photographic scenery.

In the room

We see this photographic landscape working especially well in a living room, where a wider, uninterrupted wall gives the full mountain ridge space to unfold. Because the composition balances the bright snow and sky with darker exposed rock, it creates an expansive focal point without visually crowding the room. In a holiday home or open living space, placing the wallpaper along a main feature wall behind a sofa allows the natural horizon and crisp blue tones to bring a calm, open-air feeling indoors.

Styling it

To complement the cool alpine palette, we would anchor the space with warm natural materials and grounded furniture shapes:

• Balance the cool whites and blues of the wallpaper with warm timber furniture, such as honey-toned oak or rich walnut, to bring warmth into the living area.
• Choose low-profile seating in soft charcoal, slate grey, or textured cream wool so the mountain horizon remains the primary visual element in the room.
• Introduce tactile accents like brushed wool throws or woven natural rugs that reflect the organic textures found within the alpine scene.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by pure snow white, deep slate grey in the exposed rock faces, and a clean, cool sky blue. To build a balanced palette around the design, we suggest pairing it with warm off-white or soft pebble grey on adjacent walls to keep the transitions natural. Deeper accents in charcoal, navy, or earthy umber drawn from the shadowed crags will give the surrounding decor a cohesive, grounded finish.
