Wallpaper - Sole Purpose

Our Sole Purpose wallpaper, created by Kate Jarvik Birch, brings a bold, painterly energy to the wall. The composition captures crossed legs pointing upward in high-gloss red stilettos and playful polka-dot tights against a muted, brush-textured teal-grey backdrop. We love how the vivid crimson shoes immediately draw focus, balanced by the graphic repetition of the dark spots and the soft, expressive background brushwork. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our design makes a striking, confident focal point.

In the room

Because of its expressive scale and strong vertical focal point, we see this wall mural working especially well on an accent wall where the motif can be viewed without heavy visual interruption. It feels right at home in a creative dressing room, a vibrant walk-in wardrobe, or a lively hallway where the bold red and polka dots can set an upbeat tone. In a bedroom or a living room, placing this wallpaper on a feature wall behind a low bed frame or alongside a minimalist sofa gives the artwork the space it needs while keeping the surrounding room balanced.

Styling it

When styling around Sole Purpose, we suggest letting the mural carry the primary decorative rhythm while keeping major furniture pieces grounded.

• Pair the artwork with clean-lined furniture in painted black or deep charcoal to echo the graphic polka dots and maintain a crisp, modern contrast.
• Introduce warm red or deep cherry accents in smaller decorative objects, such as a sculptural table lamp or a ceramic vase, to pull the vibrant shoe colour into the room without overwhelming it.
• Choose understated textiles in cool grey or washed linen for curtains and upholstery, giving the expressive, painterly backdrop room to breathe.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on glossy cherry red, deep navy-black polka dots, and a gentle, slate-toned teal-grey background. To create a cohesive scheme, we recommend pairing it with surrounding wall paint in soft off-white, light cool grey, or an understated muted teal that picks up the background brushstrokes. For trim, skirting, and doors, a crisp clean white or a striking dark charcoal creates a sharp boundary that frames the mural beautifully.
