Wallpaper - April Gray III

Our April Gray III wallpaper, designed by Mike Schick, brings a striking abstract composition of geometric curves, bold planes, and soft painterly visual texture to the wall. Large intersecting arcs and clean segments divide the surface in a balanced interplay of slate gray, cool ash, pale cream, warm sand, and off-white, punctuated by subtle hairline accents of teal and crimson. What we especially like about this design is how the broad architectural shapes are softened by visible brushwork throughout each color block. Produced custom to your exact dimensions, our PVC-free wallpapers feature a subtle paper texture and are simple to hang.

In the room

In a living room, dining area, or open entryway, we would place this design on a main uninterrupted wall where the full geometric arcs can expand across the surface. Because the scale of the curved forms is generous, giving the wallpaper a wide expanse allows the visual rhythm between the cool grays and creamy segments to breathe.

In a bedroom or home office, we see this working particularly well behind a low bed or streamlined desk. The design carries strong graphic definition without overwhelming the space, thanks to the muted tonal balance. Natural daylight brings out the quiet variations in the brush-textured gray and sand fields, while softer evening lighting emphasizes the structural lines of the composition.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this wallpaper with furniture that shares its architectural yet grounded feel. Clean-lined mid-century or modern silhouettes in warm oak, walnut, or black metal echo the geometric framing without competing with the curved artwork.

Keep larger upholstery and floor coverings relatively understated in solid, neutral weaves so the wall remains the focal anchor of the room. A few sculptural ceramics or a matte pendant light in minimalist forms will naturally extend the contemporary gallery aesthetic.

Color combinations

The artwork centers around a sophisticated palette of charcoal gray, light stone, creamy beige, and crisp white, with delicate hints of turquoise and red along the boundary lines.

To create a cohesive interior, we suggest pulling the warm cream and pale sand tones into surrounding painted walls, linen drapery, or soft wool rugs. For a higher-contrast, modern look, deep charcoal or slate gray trim frames the wallpaper beautifully, while small decorative accents in muted teal or terracotta can subtly pick up on the fine accent lines within the motif.
