Wallpaper - Around America

Designed by Laura Marshall, our Around America wallpaper brings the map of the United States to life through charming, illustrated vignettes. Across a soft off-white landscape, iconic landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, the Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Rushmore, and the Gateway Arch sit alongside regional wildlife, from Florida alligators to roaming plains bison. Warm accents in coral, soft orange, earthy terracotta, and muted sage give the graphic ink-style illustration a gentle, friendly presence. Our custom wallpapers are made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and are produced on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical texture.

In the room

Because this design functions as a full-scale illustrated geography, we think it works best on a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall where the complete continental composition can unfold. In a playroom or children's study area, it creates an engaging focal point that invites curiosity without overwhelming the space with overly saturated primary colors.

The soft tonal balance also makes our wall murals an appealing backdrop in a casual home office, library, or a creative teenage bedroom. Placing low-profile furniture such as a desk, toy storage bench, or low bed beneath the lower coastline preserves the visibility of the central states, allowing every detail from coast to coast to be enjoyed.

Styling it

We suggest keeping the surrounding furniture clean-lined and understated so the intricate storytelling in the artwork remains the centerpiece of the room. Natural, pale wood finishes such as ash or birch echo the organic, sketched feel of the illustrations. Simple painted furniture in muted neutral tones keeps the space feeling open and organized.

To balance the detailed map graphics, we would keep surrounding textiles mostly solid or subtly textured rather than heavily patterned. A simple woven flatweave rug and plain cotton or linen drapery provide comfortable physical warmth while letting the wall mural set the visual theme.

Color combinations

The wallpaper artwork uses an inviting palette of coral, pastel orange, golden wheat, muted greens, and slate greys set against a soft pale backdrop.

For adjacent walls and painted trim, we recommend pulling out the background off-white or pairing the design with gentle, earthy neutrals like warm sand or pale putty. If you want to introduce a subtle accent color on painted woodwork or shelving, a dusty sage green or a soft terracotta draws directly from the illustrated icons, creating a cohesive, well-rounded room palette.
