Wallpaper - Cryptid Tourism II

Our Cryptid Tourism II wallpaper mural, designed by Omar Escalante, captures the retro charm of mid-century travel posters with an intriguing sci-fi twist. Set against a deep, starry night sky, the stylized desert composition highlights a downed flying saucer nestled into the sand dunes beneath glowing orange mountain ridges and silhouette desert flora. Vintage-inspired typography featuring "The best stargazing's at AREA 51" and "RACHEL, NEVADA" anchors the bold graphical artwork. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural with a subtle paper texture, this design brings narrative flair and playful mid-century style to any accent wall.

In the room

Because this mural functions as a large-scale retro graphic poster, we see it performing at its best on a wide, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. In a teenage room, home theater, or a dedicated hobby den, placing the wallpaper behind a low sofa or desk setup ensures that the central crashed saucer, the starry night sky, and the stylized lettering remain fully visible.

In a home office or study, the warm desert horizon balanced by the deep navy sky creates an engaging visual backdrop without overwhelming the space. The bold horizontal layers of desert sand and mountain peaks naturally draw the eye across the room, making it an excellent anchor for creative workspaces and casual living areas alike.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this graphic mural with mid-century modern or relaxed contemporary furnishings that echo its vintage character. Low-profile furniture in warm woods or matte black finishes allows the bold silhouette of the artwork to take center stage. To balance the vibrant illustrative style, choose clean-lined pieces with simple forms rather than heavily ornate decorations.

Color combinations

The artwork centers on deep midnight blue, glowing desert orange, earthy browns, and muted olive greens. To build a cohesive palette around the wallpaper, consider pulling out the dusky sky tones with dark navy or charcoal accents on adjoining trim and built-in shelving. For a warmer, sun-drenched feel, warm ochre, rust, or sandy neutral tones on adjacent painted walls create a seamless transition from the printed desert sands into the rest of the room.
