Wallpaper - Kawara Roof II

Our Kawara Roof II wallpaper brings the striking architectural detail of traditional tiled roofing into sharp focus. Photographed by Deborah Revell, the composition highlights sculpted dragon figures along the roof ridges, crowned with a circular decorative ornament and set against textured forest foliage in the background. Soft leaf shadows frame the scene, creating a rich monochrome balance of crisp sculptural lines and organic greenery. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle paper texture, our mural wallpapers offer a distinct focal point for heritage-inspired interiors.

In the room

In a living room, study, or bedroom, we see this photographic design working best on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full span of the roof ridges and dragon sculptures can be appreciated without tall furniture breaking up the composition. The grayscale palette and balanced contrast give it a quiet presence, making it well suited behind a low bed frame or across the main feature wall in a home office. In spaces with ample natural daylight, the tonal gradations between the dark tiles and the soft background foliage become especially vivid.

Styling it

Because the architectural details and dragon sculptures carry significant visual character, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Low-profile pieces in dark timber or charcoal painted finishes echo the tonal depth of the tiles without competing with the detailed ridgework. Clean-lined upholstery in plain woven fabrics like coarse linen or wool complements the structured photographic subject while allowing the wall to remain the primary statement.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is composed of deep charcoals, slate greys, and crisp off-whites, balanced by soft mid-tone grays in the background canopy. When decorating around it, we like pairing adjacent walls with soft stone, pale warm grey, or muted chalky whites. For accent elements, deep graphite, slate, or subtle moss green furnishings tie into the quiet outdoor atmosphere captured in the photograph.
