Wallpaper - New Mexico Calling I

Photographer Nathan Larson captures the vast expanse of the desert southwest in our New Mexico Calling I wallpaper. Anchored by rugged mountain ridges and arid plains along the lower edge, the composition opens up into a sweeping sky layered with dramatic, sunlit clouds and deep teal-tinted blue tones. The cinematic scale and warm, earthy horizon create an open, atmospheric perspective across a wall. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this mural wallpaper is designed to be straightforward to hang while bringing a distinctive landscape view into your interior.

In the room

Because the dramatic visual weight of the mountains sits in the lower portion while the sky expands upward, we see this wall mural working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted wall in a living room, bedroom, or dining area. In a living room, positioning a low-profile sofa along the base lets the rocky peaks rise naturally above the seating, while the expansive cloudscape draws the eye upward to enhance the feeling of vertical space. For a bedroom, installing the wallpaper behind a headboard frames the room with a grounded, grounded landscape view that feels quiet and expansive. It also works beautifully along an open dining wall where long sightlines allow the wide desert horizon to be appreciated in its entirety.

Styling it

When styling around this photographic landscape, we like to complement the raw, natural character of the desert scenery with simple forms and tactile materials.

• Choose low-profile furniture in warm woods or muted matte finishes to keep the visual focus on the distant horizon line.
• Introduce unbleached linen, wool, or canvas upholstery in warm sand and cream shades that echo the cloud formations and sunlit desert floor.
• Complement the cinematic, slightly vintage color grading with understated accents in patinated bronze or matte blackened metal.
• Keep wall decor on adjacent surfaces minimal so the scenic perspective remains the primary visual focal point of the space.

Color combinations

The palette in this wallpaper is defined by a striking contrast between the warm, sandy ochre and dusty terracotta of the desert basin and the deep slate teal and cream tones in the sky. To build a cohesive room around it, we suggest pulling the warm, muted desert tones onto adjoining walls through soft off-white, warm sand, or gentle clay-tinted neutrals. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, deeper slate blues or dusty teal trim can draw directly from the upper atmosphere of the photograph. Surrounding fabrics in warm oatmeal and stone help balance the deep contrasts within the sky.
