Wallpaper - Glimpse of Gold II

Our Glimpse of Gold II wallpaper, created in collaboration with artist Chris Paschke, brings an expressive painterly presence to the wall. Thick sweeps of white paint build an abstract, layered visual surface, punctuated by scattered gold accents and subtle undertones of beige and grey. The interplay between broad painterly strokes and lighter passages gives the composition a gallery-like character with generous movement and visual depth. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our mural wallpapers are straightforward to hang and make a distinctive artistic statement in any interior.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as a focal point in a living room or bedroom where the full scale of the composition can unfold across a wider wall. In a living room, placing our wallpaper behind a low sofa allows the sweeping brushstrokes and gold highlights to remain fully visible, drawing the eye without overwhelming the layout. In a bedroom, installing it across the wall behind the headboard creates an inviting, artful backdrop. Because the palette relies on soft white, warm beige, and gentle grey tones alongside the gold, the design maintains an open, airy feel even across larger continuous surfaces.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the central element in the room, we would pair our design with furniture that features clean, modern profiles and uncluttered silhouettes. Contemporary and organic modern interiors suit this composition naturally, where the expressive brushwork contrasts pleasantly with calm architectural lines.

When it comes to materials, we would lean towards warm wooden finishes such as natural oak or walnut to complement the warmth of the gold accents. For surrounding seating and upholstery, simple woven fabrics in neutral shades help anchor the room, while subtle brass or brushed gold lighting fixtures can pick up the metallic tones within the motif without feeling overdone.

Colour combinations

The core palette of our wallpaper is built on clean white, muted beige, and soft grey, enlivened by warm gold elements throughout. When painting adjoining walls or woodwork, soft warm off-whites and pale stone shades will create a cohesive, seamless transition. For a slightly higher contrast, deeper charcoal or warm slate tones on adjacent trims, doors, or accent furniture can add structure to the room while allowing the lighter passages of the wall murals to stand out clearly.
