Wallpaper - Sunset on US 163

Our Sunset on US 163 wallpaper captures a dramatic desert panorama at dusk, photographed by Tono Balaguer. The design centres on the distinct silhouette of Southwestern sandstone formations set against a sweeping, atmospheric sky where glowing orange, soft pink and deep purple dissolve into twilight blue. The strong contrast between the dark land in the foreground and the luminous horizon gives this panoramic wall mural a rich sense of depth and scale. Like all our wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because of the wide horizon and bold horizontal composition, we see this working particularly well on a main feature wall in a living room or bedroom. The dark foreground anchors the bottom of the wall naturally, allowing lower furniture like sofas, low shelving units or a bedhead to sit comfortably against it without obscuring the main sky motif. In a meditation room, the balance of deep evening tones and warm sunset hues creates an inviting, grounded atmosphere with a generous feeling of open space.

Styling it

The vivid desert sunset brings plenty of visual character to a space, so we would keep the surrounding decor relatively simple:

• Ground the room with warm, natural timber finishes such as walnut, teak or aged oak, which echo the earthy warmth of the American Southwest.
• Choose low-profile furniture in neutral upholstery to keep sightlines clear across the panoramic horizon.
• Add textured woven textiles like wool blankets or raw cotton cushions in terracotta, sand or muted indigo to complement the desert aesthetic without competing with the sky.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper ranges from fiery amber and desert orange to dusky rose, deep violet and evening sky blue, balanced by the near-black silhouette of the rock formations. To complement this, we would use warm neutrals on adjacent walls, such as sandy beige, soft biscuit or warm off-white. For accents, muted terracotta and dusty blue pick up the tones in the sky, while charcoal or matte black ironwork ties back cleanly to the foreground silhouette.
