Wallpaper - Crisp

Designed by Kate Jarvik Birch, our Crisp wallpaper brings a vibrant still life perspective to the wall. The composition captures two whole red and golden apples alongside two freshly cut slices resting across a light surface with deep blue and purple cast shadows. Broad, expressive brushwork defines the glossy fruit skins, catching bright highlights in creamy white, turquoise, and warm yellow against rich burgundy and ruby tones. We make all our wallpapers made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, creating an easy-to-hang feature wall that celebrates bold, painterly colour.

In the room

We love the idea of using this design in a kitchen or dining area where its still life subject feels right at home. The oversized scale of the fruit turns a classic tabletop scene into a striking graphic statement, making it an ideal choice for a dedicated accent wall behind a dining table or along a breakfast nook. Because the artwork features strong directional lighting and rich, contrasting shadows, giving it an uninterrupted wall allows the composition to hold the room without competing with tall cabinetry or heavy wall shelving. In an open-plan kitchen and living space, our wall murals like this one define the dining zone with warmth and artistic presence.

Styling it

To let the expressive brushwork and rich palette take centre stage, we suggest pairing this mural wallpaper with simple, clean-lined dining furniture. Mid-tone or darker timber chairs and tables balance the deep blues and purples in the shadows, while smooth painted finishes allow the energetic painting style to stand out. Keep surrounding tabletop ceramics and tableware relatively understated in neutral or matte glazes so the wall remains the main focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

The artwork centres around a rich palette of deep ruby red, warm cider yellow, and vivid highlights of turquoise and soft white, set against bold navy and violet shadow tones. To build a cohesive room around our wallpaper, consider echoing the cool navy or slate blue on adjacent walls, woodwork, or built-in kitchen units. Alternatively, a soft off-white or light putty tone drawn from the tabletop background will create a bright, balanced contrast that lets the red and golden fruit pop.
