Wallpaper - Dusk Dunes II

Created by Chris Paschke, our Dusk Dunes II wallpaper interprets an abstract landscape through broad, fluid watercolor washes. At the top, soft peach and warm beige tones blend together like a quiet dusk sky, transitioning into central horizontal bands of slate blue and earthy grey that suggest rolling hills or low evening clouds. Towards the base, paler strokes of off-white and light grey ground the composition with an open, airy balance. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a gentle artistic horizon to any interior.

In the room

Because the composition relies on wide, horizontal sweeps of colour, we like giving this design an expansive, uninterrupted wall where the full landscape perspective can breathe. In a living room, it works naturally along the wall behind a sofa, where the darker blue and grey layers sit just above lower seating to anchor the arrangement. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard creates an enveloping visual backdrop without overwhelming the space, especially in rooms with generous natural daylight that highlights the subtle transitions between peach and slate. For a dedicated meditation room or reading corner, the soft gradient offers an uncluttered focal point that sits comfortably across a wider accent wall.

Styling it

To complement the organic modern feel of the brushwork, we would focus on low-profile furniture with clean, unforced lines. Low wooden frames in ash, birch, or pale oak sit harmoniously against the lighter bottom tones of the mural, keeping the visual weight near the floor. Upholstery in natural, unpatterned fabrics such as oatmeal wool or soft linen lets the movement in the wallpaper remain the primary visual feature of the room. A few ceramic accents in matte white, stone, or muted terracotta provide a grounded counterpoint to the fluid forms on the wall.

Colour combinations

The design itself centres on a palette of dusk peach, warm beige, slate blue, soft grey, and off-white. When choosing paint colours for adjacent walls and woodwork, soft neutrals with slight warm undertones, such as parchment or pale stone, echo the upper sky tones and create a cohesive perimeter. For skirting boards or doors where you want a clearer definition, a deep slate grey drawn directly from the darker hill layers adds sharp, intentional contrast. Muted accents in clay or washed indigo throughout cushions and throws also help tie surrounding furnishings into the mural's earthy base.
