Wallpaper - Yellow in Blue

Created by Pamela Munger, our Yellow in Blue wallpaper brings an expressive still life into the home with broad, painterly brushwork and rich colour contrast. Warm golden-yellow blooms with deep brown centres fan out from a bold cobalt blue vase, set against a soft, muted beige backdrop. A pale green pear rests quietly on the white foreground table, anchoring the composition with an understated balance. As with all our wall murals, this design is custom made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making it a distinctive artistic focal point.

In the room

Because Yellow in Blue has the composition and presence of an expansive canvas, we like using it on a main feature wall where its painterly forms can be appreciated without feeling crowded. It works beautifully in a dining room behind a table or across a focal wall in a living room, drawing the eye immediately to the interplay between the warm floral tones and the vivid blue vase. In a kitchen or breakfast nook, the still-life subject feels completely at home, adding warmth and personality to daily routines. For creative spaces or a home art studio, the expressive brush marks provide an inspiring backdrop.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the centrepiece of the room, we would surround it with relatively quiet, considered furnishings. Painted furniture in off-white or deep navy echoes the palette directly, while warm natural wood adds organic texture without competing with the bold paint strokes. Keep tabletop accessories sculptural and minimal, perhaps picking up on the earthy tones of the pear or the dark floral centres with simple ceramics and matte finishes.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by the striking contrast between sunflower yellow, intense cobalt blue, deep dark brown, soft pear green, and a neutral beige background. When selecting neighbouring wall paints or larger decorative elements, warm cream, linen, and soft beige create a seamless, harmonious transition around the mural. For a more adventurous interior scheme, pulling out the deep cobalt blue or a warm ochre for adjacent woodwork, trims, or upholstery creates a rich, cohesive look.
