Wallpaper - Where is Your Happy Place?

Created by James Wiens, our Where is Your Happy Place? wallpaper depicts a quiet lakeside campsite framed by tall pine trees and a dense wooded hillside. A green canoe rests along the shoreline with two golden dogs sitting patiently inside, while an orange tent sits pitched beside the water and geese drift across the calm lake and open sky. Rendered with the gentle brushwork of traditional oil painting, the landscape brings together earthy greens, stone blues, muted slate water, and warm terracotta accents. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made to measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper texture.

In the room

Because this mural wallpaper is composed like an expansive landscape painting, we think it works best on a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full horizon and tall trees have space to unfold. In a living room or open lounge, it creates an atmospheric focal point behind a low sofa, grounding the seating area without feeling visually cluttered.

We also see this design working beautifully in a lake house, cabin, or guest bedroom where you want an inviting, rustic outdoor feel. The dark, tranquil lake surface and deep forest tones give the room a grounded, peaceful backdrop, while the open pale sky in the upper third keeps the wall from feeling too heavy.

Styling it

To complement the nostalgic, heritage character of the scenery, we suggest pairing this mural with warm, natural materials and relaxed furnishings.

• Ground the room with warm wood furniture, such as honey pine, vintage oak, or reclaimed timber, which echoes the wooded landscape and lakeside cabin aesthetic.
• Introduce soft furnishings in textured rust, terracotta, or warm amber to pick up on the tone of the shoreline tent and bring warmth into the lower half of the space.
• Keep surrounding upholstery and curtain fabrics simple in unbleached linen, wool, or muted oatmeal so the detailed scenery remains the clear focal point of the room.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper is built around a calm, nature-inspired palette of deep forest green, stone blue water, pale misty grey-blue in the sky, and warm terracotta in the tent.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls and trim, muted off-whites with a warm undertone or soft stone greys work harmoniously alongside the open sky. If you prefer deeper contrast, a rich slate blue or earthy moss green pulled from the treeline can be used on surrounding woodwork, built-in shelving, or adjacent walls to create a cosy, wrapped-in interior.
