Wallpaper - Iris Lake

Our Iris Lake wallpaper mural, created by artist Silvia Vassileva, presents an impressionistic woodland landscape where soft brushwork captures a quiet river drifting through misty trees. The composition balances smokey grey, muted beige, deep blue, and dark green tones with an overcast sky, giving the painted scene an open, atmospheric depth. Printed as a made-to-measure mural on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a serene, painterly feel to walls while remaining easy to hang.

In the room

Because the artwork features a continuous landscape composition rather than a repetitive small pattern, we find it works best on an open, relatively uninterrupted wall. In a living room behind a low sofa or in a bedroom as a calming backdrop behind a headboard, the wider horizontal perspective has the space it needs to unfold naturally. The cool, misty palette also suits a quiet home office, study, or reading library, where the muted contrast creates visual interest without feeling busy or distracting. In rooms with cooler north-facing daylight, the grey and blue tones lean crisp and fresh, whereas warmer indoor evening lighting brings out the softer beige undertones in the sky and riverbank.

Styling it

The expressive, painterly nature of the mural pairs naturally with simple, tactile interior elements that let the artwork take centre stage:

• Pair with light oak, ash, or mid-toned timber furniture to introduce natural warmth that balances the cooler palette of the landscape.
• Choose understated upholstered pieces in textured linen, wool, or soft bouclé in shades of oatmeal, charcoal, or washed navy.
• Incorporate matte black or blackened bronze accents in lighting and table frames to echo the deeper shadowy tones within the forest trees.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a refined palette of smokey grey, cool dark green, deep blue, and soft beige. When planning surrounding walls, woodwork, or built-in cabinetry, we recommend pulling directly from these nuances. A soft off-white with gentle grey undertones or a chalky pebble grey creates a seamless, airy transition on neighbouring painted surfaces. For a moodier, enveloping scheme in a dining room or study, deep slate grey, forest green, or charcoal blue on the surrounding trim and doors frames the mural with striking, grounded contrast.
