Wallpaper - Pretty in Paris II

Captured by Deborah Revell, our Pretty in Paris II wallpaper brings the dramatic interplay of classic and modern Parisian architecture directly onto your wall. The black and white photographic composition juxtaposes the sharp, geometric lattice of the Louvre's glass pyramid against the ornate sculpted stone facades and classical rooflines behind it. Tonal smoke and charcoal grays define the intricate details under a soft, overcast sky, giving the mural a refined, atmospheric depth. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural with a subtle paper structure, this design offers an architectural focal point for contemporary and classic interior spaces alike.

In the room

We see this architectural wallpaper working particularly well on a feature wall in a living room, dining room, hallway, or study. Because the composition features strong diagonal lines from the glass pyramid set against detailed classical stonework, it benefits from a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full geometric scale can unfold naturally. In an entryway or long corridor, the mural adds a sense of perspective and depth, while placed behind a low sofa or credenza in a living space, the upper architectural reliefs and dramatic sky remain clearly visible.

Styling it

To complement the rich architectural contrast in the image, we suggest pairing this wallpaper with furniture that carries clean, confident silhouettes. Modern pieces with crisp profiles or minimalist black metal frames echo the structural geometry of the glass pyramid, while classic molded details or traditional architecture in the room tie naturally into the heritage stonework.

We would keep surrounding furniture relatively understated, avoiding heavy competing patterns on nearby rugs or upholstery so the wallpaper remains the visual anchor of the space.

Colour combinations

The monochrome palette of this mural wallpaper relies on neutral smoke gray, mid-tone slate, and crisp architectural highlights.

To create a balanced interior, we would combine this design with soft off-white, cool gray, or chalky mineral paint shades on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want to introduce depth and contrast, deeper charcoal or rich black trims can frame the mural effectively. For larger furniture or accent pieces, muted neutral textiles, dark stone, or warm timber tones introduce gentle contrast without competing with the grayscale tones of the photograph.
