Wallpaper - Aurora Borealis Colors

Photographer Jim Wiebe captures the spectacle of the northern lights in our Aurora Borealis Colors wallpaper, where intense ribbons of green and popping pink illuminate a night sky filled with stars. Dark clouds frame the vivid display, while a snow-capped mountain rises along the horizon and a silhouetted forest lines a calm river below. The smooth water mirrors the brilliant sky, creating a balanced horizontal composition with striking visual contrast. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because of the strong horizontal horizon and the mirrored reflection in the water, we see this scenic mural working best across a wider, uninterrupted wall. In a bedroom, placing the design directly behind the headboard allows the snow-capped peak and radiant aurora to become an expressive visual backdrop without competing with tall storage units.

The motif also translates well into a living room or a dedicated meditation room, where the deep night tones and tranquil river create an immersive setting. To keep the full balance between the sky and its watery reflection visible, we suggest keeping lower furniture relatively low-profile. The vivid green and pink tones hold their definition well in spaces with lower evening lighting, while soft ambient light allows the darker silhouette of the forest and clouds to recede naturally into the background.

Styling it

The photographic realism and dramatic night atmosphere pair naturally with organic modern or contemporary interiors. We like balancing the rich, dark tones of the sky with surrounding furniture that keeps shapes simple and uncrowded:

• Low-slung seating or platform bed frames in dark-stained wood or matte black help anchor the lower edge of the landscape without interrupting the reflective river.
• Textiles in neutral charcoals, heather grays, or off-white give the eye a quiet place to rest around the vibrant pink and green ribbons of light.
• Warm accent lighting placed away from the mural surface helps highlight the deep contrast in the evening while letting the landscape remain the primary focus in the room.

Color combinations

Our design is anchored by deep night sky tones, dark forest greens, and bright, popping ribbons of emerald green and vivid magenta-pink, with crisp white highlights across the snowy summit.

When working around this palette, we recommend pairing the wallpaper with deep charcoal, cool slate gray, or soft muted forest green on adjacent walls or trim to complement the shadowed foreground. If you prefer a lighter look elsewhere in the room, off-white or misty pale gray balances the darker values in the scene while echoing the subtle starlight and snow.
