Wallpaper - A Place I Dreamed Of

Our A Place I Dreamed Of wallpaper, created by Jocelyn Elizabeth, brings an expressive abstract composition to the wall through broad painted planes and delicate mark-making. Soft ballet slipper pink and chalky white areas provide an open, airy backdrop, grounded by rich moss and forest green blocks alongside gentle lilac washes and fine scribbled blue line details. The painterly character gives the impression of layered oil paint and crayon on a textured canvas, offering artistic depth while remaining visually calm. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

Because the composition balances large quiet areas of pale pink and white with focused areas of green and purple in the lower and side sections, we see this working particularly well across a wider uninterrupted wall. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard allows the deeper green tones to ground the lower half of the space while the lighter washes lift the room upward. It also feels very much at home in a creative studio, dressing room, or living room, where the abstract painterly movement can act as a generous focal point without overwhelming the surroundings.

Styling it

To complement the modern, expressive character of the design, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean-lined and understated. Contemporary or Scandinavian-inspired pieces with simple silhouettes prevent the space from feeling visually crowded alongside the textured brushwork. Natural wood tones, particularly pale ash or light oak, pair effortlessly with the soft pastel tones, while matte ceramic accents or simple woven upholstery introduce subtle material warmth without competing with the wall art.

Colour combinations

The artwork is built around a palette of ballet slipper pink, lilac, deep moss green, off-white, and understated hints of slate blue. For adjacent walls, choosing a soft chalky white or an airy blush pink creates a seamless, tonal transition that lets the mural carry the visual weight. If you prefer more contrast, incorporating deep olive or forest green into accents, cabinetry, or painted woodwork will pick up on the boldest brushstrokes in the design and anchor the entire scheme.
