Wallpaper - Diablo Lake I

Photographed by Steve Heap, our Diablo Lake I wallpaper captures the striking turquoise water of a glacial mountain lake framed by dense evergreen pine trees and rugged mountain peaks. The vivid teal water creates a strong visual centre, balanced by deep forest greens and the cool grey tones of the distant slopes under a bright blue sky. What we particularly like about this design is the sense of open landscape it introduces to an interior wall. Our mural wallpapers are made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making them straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because of the panoramic landscape view and the depth created by the foreground pine trees, we recommend giving this wallpaper a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall. In a living room or behind a dining table, it works beautifully as an expansive feature wall that opens up the room. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard allows the vivid turquoise water to become the primary visual accent without overwhelming the rest of the space. It also brings a fresh, scenic character to a home office, study, or library, where the view can serve as an open backdrop behind a desk. For a cabin, lake house, or guest room, the natural mountain scenery fits right into a relaxed, rustic or modern setting.

Styling it

To let the landscape remain the primary focus, we suggest pairing this design with furniture that has clean silhouettes and simple forms. Warm wood finishes, such as natural oak or warm pine, complement the forest tones nicely and ground the bright water. Upholstered pieces in neutral tones, like off-white, light grey, or unbleached canvas, keep the room feeling balanced and airy. Dark metal accents on lighting or table frames can echo the deep shadows of the pine trees without adding visual clutter.

Colour combinations

The standout tone in this design is the distinctive turquoise and teal hue of the lake, supported by forest greens, slate greys, and clear sky blue. For surrounding walls and skirting boards, we recommend soft off-whites, stone greys, or muted pebble shades that do not compete with the lake. If you want to draw out the deeper foliage, accents in deep moss or pine green on cushions or throws work naturally. For a slightly more contrasting approach, warm terracotta or ochre details offer a pleasant earthy warmth against the cool water tones.
