Wallpaper - By the Lake

Our By the Lake wallpaper brings an impressionistic landscape to life, pairing an expansive, cloud-filled sky with an expressive meadow below. Designed by Silvia Vassileva, the artwork balances soft white, grey, and blue brushstrokes across the upper horizon with grounded touches of green, red, and pink across the lower foreground. The painted oil-look finish and open atmospheric perspective give the composition an airy visual depth that naturally draws the eye outward. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

In a living room or a dedicated home library, we like using this design across a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizon line can stretch out naturally. Because the upper two-thirds of the composition is dominated by soft sky and cloud tones, the wallpaper works beautifully behind lower seating arrangements, such as a low-profile sofa or reading bench, without losing the character of the distant hills. In quieter spaces like a meditation room, the gentle tonal shifts create an open, tranquil atmosphere that visually expands the feeling of the room without overwhelming it with heavy contrast.

Styling it

We recommend letting the painterly texture of the design take centre stage by pairing it with simple, grounded furnishings. Mid-toned or darker natural woods work particularly well alongside the earthy base notes of the meadow, while upholstery in muted, unpatterned fabrics allows the colourful brushwork to stand out. Keeping decorative wall art and tall shelving away from the main feature wall helps preserve the feeling of an open horizon across the space.

Colour combinations

The palette within our wallpaper is built on cloud grey, soft sky blue, and muted white, anchored by earthy green with subtle accents of pink and deep red in the foreground. For adjacent walls and surrounding trim, we suggest pulling out the gentle cloud greys or off-white tones to keep the room cohesive and bright. If you prefer a richer contrast, deeper moss greens or slate-toned textiles will naturally pick up on the darker tones in the distant hills.
