Wallpaper - Orange Study I

Created by Mackenzie Nelson, this contemporary design brings a warm and grounded presence to an interior with its painterly still life composition. Two ripe oranges rest amongst deep olive and sage green foliage, set within a blush pink rectangular frame against a soft, painted off-white backdrop. The visible brushwork and earthy palette give our wallpaper an intimate, gallery-like character that works beautifully in dining spaces, kitchens, and welcoming living areas. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free material, our wallpapers have a subtle paper structure that adds fine visual depth to the painted artwork.

In the room

Because the motif is composed as an artful still life study, we find it performs best when treated as the focal element in a room. In a dining room or open kitchen, placing this mural on an uninterrupted wall creates an immediate sense of warmth around the table. The large scale of the painted leaves and fruit draws the eye without overwhelming the surrounding space.

In a living room or bedroom, it works particularly well behind a low sofa or a minimalist bed frame, allowing the central framed artwork to sit naturally within view. For more compact areas such as a hallway or a home office, the warm blush backdrop and rich green foliage introduce personality without requiring extensive decorative clutter around them.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this design with simple, design-led furnishings that echo its contemporary modernist feel. Clean-lined furniture in warm wood tones, such as mid-tone oak or walnut, grounds the earthy tones of the branches and leaves.

To maintain balance, keep surrounding decor relatively quiet. Textured ceramics in neutral tones, minimalist lighting with soft diffusion, and tactile linen upholstery work in harmony with the painted details. Choosing understated furniture ensures the large-scale botanical artwork remains the defining accent of the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper centres on an earthy palette featuring warm terracotta orange, olive and sage green, set against a soft blush pink ground with an off-white border.

When choosing paint colours and materials for adjacent walls, trim, or cabinetry, muted off-whites and soft creams create a seamless transition around the border. If you want a deeper contrast, pulling out the dark olive green on neighbouring woodwork or cabinetry adds striking architectural depth. Soft dusty rose or warm sandy tones also work exceptionally well to extend the welcoming background hue throughout the entire room.
