Wallpaper - Not All Who Wander Are Lost

Our Not All Who Wander Are Lost wallpaper, created by Omar Escalante, brings an atmospheric mountain landscape into the home with a clear narrative focus. The composition centres on a lone hiker gazing across a winding lake, framed by pine forests, soft rolling hills, and distant mountain ridges under an open sky featuring the subtle quote across the top. Graphic silhouettes of deer and birds lend fine detail to the foreground, while the palette combines earthy fern greens, soft blues, and muted teals with the hiker's warm orange jacket. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as an expressive feature wall in a study, teenage room, or home art studio. Because the artwork builds depth from a grounded foreground up towards airy mountain peaks and sky, giving it a wide, uninterrupted wall allows the full perspective to open up the room. In a home office or study, positioning the wallpaper behind a desk keeps the work area visually grounded while maintaining a calm, spacious view across the wall. The vertical lines of the pine trees also help draw the eye upward, making it a natural fit for rooms with standard or higher ceilings.

Styling it

The balanced mix of graphic illustration and calm landscape tones makes this wallpaper easy to style alongside both modern and classic pieces. We suggest pairing it with clean-lined furniture in warm wood tones, such as ash or light oak, which naturally pick up on the earthy outdoor aesthetic. To keep the focus on the mountain vista, surrounding furnishings are best kept relatively simple and unpatterned. Choosing a desk, shelving, or soft seating in muted charcoal, deep forest green, or neutral grey lets the central orange and green elements of the mural wallpapers stand out without visual clutter.

Colour combinations

The illustration is defined by base fern greens, earthy forest tones, cool sky blues, and soft alpine teals, with a distinct pop of warm orange on the traveller's jacket. On adjacent walls, we recommend softer off-whites, pale mist greys, or muted sage paint colours to keep the atmosphere calm and cohesive. For accents in cushions, upholstery, or desk accessories, bringing in touches of rust, burnt orange, or deep charcoal creates a satisfying visual link back to the key details in the artwork.
