Wallpaper - Palm Tree Looking Up II

Our Palm Tree Looking Up II wallpaper, photographed by Debra Van Swearingen, captures a low-angle perspective looking directly into the canopies of tropical palm trees. Rendered in monochromatic tones of charcoal grey, deep black, and pale sky grey, the photographic composition emphasizes the graphic silhouettes and delicate fronds against an open sky. We produce our wallpapers made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, offering a striking photographic focal point for residential interiors.

In the room

Because of the upward angle and strong vertical lines of the palm trunks, we see this wall mural working particularly well on a wider, uninterrupted wall in a living room. The large scale of the fronds creates an expansive feel, drawing the eye upward and giving the room a sense of vertical height. In an open-plan lounge or a holiday home living space, placing the design behind a low-profile sofa allows the palm silhouettes to remain visible and uncluttered.

The monochrome contrast makes it an effective choice for a feature wall where you want strong visual character without introducing multiple competing colours. In rooms with generous natural daylight, the fine textures along the palm fronds stand out crisply against the lighter sky tones in the background.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this photographic design with clean-lined contemporary furniture and restrained accents to let the graphic palms take centre stage.

• Choose low-slung, streamlined furniture to keep the vertical perspective open and prevent larger pieces from obscuring the lower trunk.
• Introduce dark metal or matte black frames and hardware to echo the deep charcoal and black tones in the palm silhouettes.
• Balance the sharp photographic detail with textured woven fabrics such as bouclé or unrefined linen in neutral grey or off-white.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built on a clear monochromatic scale, featuring deep black, rich charcoal grey, and pale, slightly cool off-white sky tones.

Around the wallpaper, we suggest keeping surrounding painted walls in soft off-whites or pale cool greys that tie directly into the background of the photograph. For trim and architectural details, crisp white or deep charcoal creates a sharp, cohesive frame. When introducing furniture and accent colours, natural stone tones, soft taupe, and deep charcoal will maintain a serene, modern aesthetic that supports the monochrome nature of the mural wallpapers.
