Wallpaper - First View of the Water

In this design, created by artist Julia Purinton, a painterly rural landscape opens up with soft atmospheric depth. A quiet grassy foreground in earthy greens anchors the lower third, while deep, shadowed tree forms create visual weight across the middle ground. Above, an expansive, misty sky glows in gentle cream and pale off-white tones, accented along the horizon by a delicate line of lilac-tinted haze. Our made-to-measure mural wallpapers feature a subtle paper texture and are PVC-free, bringing an impressionistic sense of open horizon to your interior.

In the room

Because the visual weight of the composition sits primarily along the lower portion, this design works especially well across a main living room wall. Giving the wallpaper a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the soft gradient of the sky to open up the room vertically while the darker tree silhouettes anchor low-profile furniture like a sofa or credenza. The quiet, painterly horizon also suits a dedicated meditation room or quiet lounge corner where a serene, open perspective helps shape a calm visual environment.

Styling it

We like pairing this landscape with furniture that echoes its grounded, natural character without competing with the painted brushwork. Consider low-backed seating upholstered in woven neutral fabrics to keep the view of the horizon clear. Natural timber pieces in warm, understated finishes complement the earthy green tones, while dark bronze or blackened metal accents subtly pick up on the deep silhouettes of the treeline.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres around a gentle palette of mossy greens, deep charcoal-tinted foliage, and luminous cream tones, set off by the faint cool purple along the distant water line. Surrounding walls and architectural woodwork pair naturally with soft warm white, chalky stone, or muted olive paint shades. For larger upholstery or rugs, quiet oatmeal, beige, and deep forest hues create an effortless dialogue with the landscape.
