Wallpaper - Planning a Trip

Our Planning a Trip wallpaper sets an evocative still life scene that celebrates the romance of travel. The composition centres around an open notebook resting on a vintage world map, flanked by sepia-toned postcards, a classic vintage camera with its lens, black-framed reading glasses, a magnifying glass, and a brown pencil laid across the blank pages. Rendered with photographic clarity, the motif is grounded in rich earthy brown and warm caramel tones that create an immediate sense of depth. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this design brings a nostalgic, story-led character to your interior.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a dedicated home office, study, or private home library. Because the photographic composition carries plenty of detailed visual storytelling, it naturally commands attention across an uninterrupted wall behind a desk or alongside open bookshelves. In a study with quiet, warm lighting, the sepia tones and golden paper textures feel enveloping rather than overpowering. Giving the mural wallpapers space to breathe ensures that smaller elements like the vintage map script and camera details remain easy to appreciate from across the room.

Styling it

To complement the rich 20th-century character of the scene, we suggest pairing this design with furniture that carries some visual substance:

• Introduce warm, medium-to-dark wood pieces such as a teak or stained oak writing desk, which echoes the antique paper tones in the print.
• Choose understated leather or matte black metal accents to balance the dark frames of the glasses and the camera body in the artwork.
• Keep surrounding textiles relatively simple in texture and neutral in tone, allowing the detailed composition of our wall murals to take centre stage.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is rooted in warm earth tones, deep caramel, sepia, and rich leathery browns, punctuated by graphic black accents and the soft off-white of the open notebook pages. On adjacent walls, we would recommend pairing it with muted warm neutrals such as linen, soft oatmeal, or a gentle biscuit beige. For a richer, more enclosed atmosphere in a study, deeper tones like espresso brown or dark charcoal grey on woodwork and shelving pick up the deeper elements of the photograph beautifully.
