Wallpaper - Across the Border II

Across the Border II brings the dramatic photographic work of Nathan Larson into the home, capturing a single, weathered tree standing resiliently against an expansive open landscape. Printed in rich monochrome, our wallpaper balances the deep charcoal and ink tones of the dense foliage with soft, silvery greys across the terrain and open sky. The strong central silhouette and detailed textural contrast give the mural wallpaper an unmistakable visual presence, creating an evocative landscape feature that draws the eye without overwhelming the room. Each piece is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure that lends depth to the photographic print.

In the room

Because of the strong central subject and broad scenic scale, we see this wall mural working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the full composition can unfold naturally. In a living room, placing the design behind a low sofa or credenza anchors the seating area while preserving the clarity of the tree's silhouette against the open sky. In a bedroom, it creates a serene, grounded backdrop behind the headboard. The balanced black and white tones mean the wallpaper integrates comfortably into both light-filled spaces and darker, moodier rooms, where the deep charcoal shadows retain their graphic weight under softer evening light.

Styling it

The graphic clarity of this photographic design pairs naturally with spaces that appreciate clean lines, natural materials, and architectural simplicity.

• Pair with contemporary furniture in warm woods or blackened metals to echo the tonal contrast within the photograph without competing for visual attention.
• Incorporate tactile fabrics such as wool throws or textured weaves in muted neutrals to soften the crisp monochromatic lines of the mural.
• Keep wall decor on adjacent surfaces minimal so the primary landscape remains the clear focal point of the interior.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design consists of rich blacks, charcoal, mid-tone greys, and crisp off-whites. Around the wallpaper, we suggest keeping adjacent walls in soft chalky whites, warm off-whites, or gentle mid-greys to maintain an airy, cohesive feel. If you prefer a richer atmosphere, pairing the mural with deep slate or muted charcoal trim can create a striking, enveloping interior that highlights the photograph's tonal depth.
