Wallpaper - All Around The States

Our All Around The States wallpaper, designed by Laura Marshall, brings an illustrated map of the United States to life with playful character and earthy tones. Across a soft, pale backdrop, regional landmarks, wildlife, and cultural icons are captured in a charming, hand-painted look. From the Golden Gate Bridge and desert arches to woodland bison, city skylines, and coastal details, the composition balances detailed vignettes with calm mint greens, warm terracottas, and gentle neutrals. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free mural wallpapers with a subtle texture in the paper, this design adds a warm, curious focal point to any space.

In the room

Because the design works as an expansive illustrated map, we see it performing best on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full continental landscape and its smaller details can be enjoyed without heavy obstruction. It makes an engaging addition to a children's room, playroom, or study, serving as both decorative wall art and an inviting story map.

In a shared family space or home office, placing this mural wallpaper behind a low desk, a child's bed, or a reading bench keeps the visual storytelling accessible at eye level. The light background keeps the room feeling open, while the spread of illustrated vignettes gives the eye plenty of spots to wander.

Styling it

To let the detailed illustrations take centre stage, we suggest surrounding the wallpaper with clean, understated furniture. Natural wood tones like warm birch, light oak, or painted white joinery pair effortlessly with the relaxed Americana aesthetic.

Simple textiles in soft linen, woven cotton, or muted corduroy help reinforce the friendly, tactile feel of the room without competing with the map. Keeping larger storage units and shelving away from the main illustrated areas ensures all the regional details and city hand-lettering remain in clear view.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is grounded in a muted palette of mint green, soft sage, warm terracotta, sandy ochre, and gentle charcoal grey against a clean, off-white background.

When decorating the surrounding space, you can draw directly from these illustrated accents:

• Soft off-white or light chalky cream on adjacent walls creates a seamless, airy transition that lets the map stand out naturally.
• Muted eucalyptus, pale mint, or sage green on trim, baseboards, or built-in cabinetry harmonises directly with the foliage and landscapes across the map.
• Warm clay, terracotta, or burnt orange accents through cushions, throws, or decorative ceramics echo the desert formations and architectural details in the artwork.
