Wallpaper - Sitting

Our Sitting wallpaper brings an intimate photographic portrait by Jim Dratfield into the home. Rendered in warm, sepia-toned shades, this design captures a calm Labrador sitting in a fabric armchair, with a close perspective that puts the texture of its snout in clear focus while soft eyes look forward into the room. In the background, softly blurred foliage introduces gentle, earthy depth. Printed as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it creates a personal, grounded feature on any wall.

In the room

Because of the photographic scale and close perspective of the subject, we see this working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room, where the Labrador's gaze can naturally engage the seating arrangement. The warm, earthy palette allows our wall murals to ground spaces without feeling visually heavy. In a creative home studio, art studio, or a relaxed teenage room, placing the design on a wall opposite natural light helps bring out the tonal gradations between the warm sepia foreground and the muted green background. The large-format portrait format means giving the mural an uninterrupted stretch of wall will keep the subject's calm expression and posture fully visible.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we prefer pairing it with unvarnished, warm woods and simple, tactile textiles that echo the relaxed, vintage feel of sepia photography. A low-profile credenza or a comfortable reading chair placed alongside the wallpaper keeps the focus on the central portrait without blocking the view.

To keep the balance in the room, we would lean toward furniture with clean, understated silhouettes. Matte black or muted bronze metal accents on reading lamps or side tables work well with the photographic depth of the sepia tones without distracting from the dog's gentle expression.

Color combinations

The core palette of our wallpaper rests on sepia, warm chestnut, biscuit tones, and soft olive greens in the blurred background.

Around the room, we suggest working with warm off-whites, oatmeal, or muted cream on adjacent walls to maintain an airy, welcoming feel. If you prefer deeper contrast, accents in forest green, warm charcoal, or rich tobacco brown draw directly from the shadowed areas in the portrait and help frame the wall mural naturally.
