Wallpaper - Desert Landscape II

Our Desert Landscape II wallpaper mural, created with artist Kristy Rice, presents a painted desert vista layered with expressive watercolour-like brushstrokes. Bold red, pink, and rose mountain ridges rise against accents of warm orange and soft purple, anchored by a sweep of soft green fields with touches of yellow and peach in the foreground. A pale blue sky gently fades into the horizon, balancing the richer hues below. The fluid washes and visible painted texture give the composition an artistic, Southwestern-inspired character across the wall. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our wallpapers are easy to hang and bring an expressive focal point to any interior.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall in a living room, where the expansive horizontal landscape has space to unfold naturally. Because the composition carries strong visual weight in the lower and middle sections with its mountain ridges and colourful washes, placing it behind a low-backed sofa or across a main dining area lets the full horizon line remain visible. In a holiday home or open-plan living space, the scenic depth creates an open, welcoming focal point that draws the eye without overwhelming the rest of the room.

Styling it

To balance the expressive watercolour strokes and layered tones of the mural wallpapers, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean in form.

• Low-profile seating and unadorned architectural lines prevent visual clutter along the lower field of the landscape.
• Warm, natural wood finishes such as light oak or warm pine complement the earthy Southwestern undertones in the mountains.
• Simple, unpatterned upholstery in neutral weaves lets the vibrant red, rose, and green washes remain the clear focus of the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself contains a rich palette of rose pink, vivid red, orange, and soft purple across the peaks, balanced by pale blue in the sky and soft green, peach, and yellow in the foreground. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or woodwork, we suggest pulling out the softer background tones. A warm off-white, light peach, or pale sky blue on adjacent surfaces creates a gentle transition, while an earthy terracotta or muted sage green on surrounding joinery or accents can echo the deeper landscape pigments.
