Wallpaper - By My Side

Our By My Side wallpaper mural by Jeanette Vertentes brings an expressive, painterly energy to the wall through two prominent abstract blooms at the centre of the composition. Painted with visible, textured brushstroke character, the petals layer vivid shades of pink, white, yellow, and blue against surrounding foliage in rich green, purple, and deep blue tones. A softly blended, multicoloured backdrop in cream and white gives the artwork depth and movement, creating a vibrant focal point. Our made-to-measure mural wallpapers are printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making them straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because of the scale and expressive weight of the central flowers, this wallpaper works wonderfully on a wide, uninterrupted feature wall where the full composition has room to breathe. In a living room or larger bedroom, placing the motif behind a main sofa or bed frame anchors the space with an immediate artistic focal point. For a dining room or a dedicated creative home office, the energetic brushwork adds visual interest across a main dining wall or backdrop, especially where surrounding walls are kept relatively quiet. In rooms with ample natural daylight, the distinct layering of the yellow, pink, and deep green strokes stands out with crisp clarity.

Styling it

When styling around such a colourful, abstract artwork, we suggest balancing the expressive energy of the wall with simpler, grounded furnishings. Mid-century modern or contemporary furniture silhouettes with clean, defined lines provide an effective structural counterpoint to the freeform, painterly brushstrokes.

To keep the room cohesive without feeling busy, consider selecting one or two secondary accent tones from the artwork, such as a muted olive green, soft blush pink, or warm ochre, and carrying them across decorative cushions, throws, or painted wooden pieces. Natural, warm-toned woods like oak or walnut sit comfortably alongside the organic floral theme, letting the vivid floral motif remain the clear centre of attention.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a vibrant core palette of bright pink, sunshine yellow, crisp blue, and pure white petals, balanced by deep forest greens, soft purples, and an off-white cream background.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, doors, or skirting boards, an off-white or soft warm cream provides a seamless, calming backdrop that echoes the lightest areas of the print. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, pulling out the deep leafy green or a dusty slate blue on adjacent walls or joinery creates an intimate, modern gallery atmosphere.
