Wallpaper - Color Clef I

Our Color Clef I wallpaper, designed by June Erica Vess, brings together sweeping brushwork and a soft, painterly composition. Broad layers of sky blue and light denim wash across an off-white ground, grounded at the centre by earthy accents of terracotta, olive green, warm taupe, and slate grey. The visual character feels open and fluid, with visible strokes and gentle tonal overlaps giving the artwork artistic presence on a larger scale. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our wallpaper creates an expressive focal point that remains light and easy to live with.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully across an uninterrupted wall in a living room, dining area, or master bedroom. Because the composition is anchored by a cluster of warmer, grounding tones near the middle while the upper areas remain light and airy, it sits naturally behind a low-backed sofa or a bed frame. The scale of the brush marks needs room to breathe, so giving the mural wallpaper a wider wall allows the sweeping movement of the blues and whites to unfold without feeling crowded. In rooms with generous natural daylight, the subtle transitions between the chalky whites and varied blue tones show their full depth.

Styling it

When styling around this wallpaper, we recommend keeping larger furniture pieces relatively simple in form so the expressive artwork remains the visual lead. Low-profile seating in neutral linen, soft grey, or cream upholstery balances the energy of the brushstrokes without competing with them.

To draw out the design's earthy core, introduce warm timber finishes such as light oak, ash, or mid-tone walnut in coffee tables, sideboards, or dining furniture. Smaller decorative touches in terracotta ceramics or muted olive textiles can pick up the central accent tones, tying the whole room together into a cohesive, considered setting.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built on a foundation of sky blue, denim, chalky off-white, and slate, with warm accents of terracotta, muted olive, and soft beige. On adjacent painted walls, soft off-whites, pale limestone, or warm greys keep the surrounding space bright and balanced. If you prefer a richer, more cocooning palette, pull the slate grey or muted olive tone from the motif onto neighbouring walls or interior woodwork to create a sophisticated, tailored contrast.
