Wallpaper - Paper Bag IV

Our Paper Bag IV wallpaper brings a graphic, collage-inspired artwork by Avery Tillmon into the home. At the centre of the composition sits a structured handbag form built from layered newsprint and printed clippings, framed by bold black rectangular handles, oversized graphic lettering, and a small black tag detail. The background layers tones of white, beige, and charcoal grey with visible fragments of printed text, creating a balanced neutral palette with strong visual contrast. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this design offers a distinctive graphic presence while remaining easy to hang.

In the room

Because the design centres on a single, striking graphic motif, we see this working particularly well as a feature wall in a dressing room, home office, or contemporary living room. In a living room or art studio space, giving the wallpaper a wide, uninterrupted wall allows the full scale of the bag motif and surrounding text layers to be seen without distraction. For a bedroom or dressing area, placing it behind a low headboard or opposite a wardrobe area creates a focused visual centrepiece without overwhelming the rest of the space.

Styling it

We suggest keeping the surrounding furniture clean-lined and understated so the graphic detail in the wallpaper takes centre stage. Minimalist furniture with black metal accents or slim silhouettes pairs naturally with the dark handles and typography in the motif. To soften the high-contrast print, combine it with warm neutral upholstery or unpatterned fabrics, avoiding competing busy patterns nearby so the collage structure remains clear and defined.

Colour combinations

The artwork is built around a neutral core of off-white, paper beige, and charcoal grey, punctuated by deep black typographic details. When selecting paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or built-in cabinetry, we like pairing this palette with soft warm whites, muted stone greys, or deeper charcoal tones. If you want to introduce accent colours through accessories, muted ochre, olive, or deep burgundy create a sophisticated dialogue against the monochrome print layers.
