Wallpaper - Almost There

Our Almost There wallpaper, created in collaboration with Danhui Nai, brings an expressive botanical study to life against a deep, moody backdrop. Broad, painterly brushstrokes form clusters of layered foliage, balancing muted earthy tones of mocha, warm taupe, soft grey-blue, and pale cream with dark, shadowy undergrowth. The asymmetric composition naturally frames the wall, leaving quiet negative space in the deep brown background between the dense leaf groupings. Printed as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical texture in the paper, this design offers a calm yet deeply artistic atmosphere suited to contemporary and organic modern interiors.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the scale and asymmetry of the foliage have space to breathe. In a bedroom, placing this mural wallpaper behind a low headboard allows the leafy clusters on either side to frame the bed naturally, creating a grounded, tranquil focal point. In a living room, it sits comfortably behind a sofa or along a main dining wall, where the deep brown base creates depth and intimacy without overwhelming the room. For a quiet home office, the painterly leaves bring an organic rhythm to the space, balancing focused work with an artistic, nature-inspired view. In rooms with generous soft daylight, the subtle tonal variations in the grey and taupe leaves become clearer, while warm evening lamps bring out the richer mocha undertones of the backdrop.

Styling it

To let the artwork remain the primary focus, we would pair this wallpaper with simple, sculptural furniture and quiet surrounding materials.

• Choose furniture in warm, mid-toned woods or soft painted neutrals that complement the earthy brown background without competing with its depth.
• Layer in upholstery and cushions in textured weaves, bouclé, or matte wool in off-white, oat, or charcoal to mirror the varied tones in the painted foliage.
• Select accent pieces with clean lines and organic silhouettes, such as minimalist ceramics or subtle blackened metal details, keeping the overall interior uncluttered and considered.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is grounded in a palette of deep mocha brown, balanced by layered foliage in warm taupe, charcoal, pale beige, and soft tinted grey-blue. On adjoining walls, we suggest continuing the warm undertones with soft oat, warm greige, or a muted stony white rather than a stark, cold white. If you prefer a moodier, more enveloping space, pairing the mural with a deep charcoal brown on surrounding trim or cabinetry creates a sophisticated, continuous feel that ties directly into the base of the design.
