A mountain view has a way of slowing everything down. Layer upon layer of ridges, each a little paler than the last, draws the eye into the distance and makes a room feel bigger than it really is. Whether you're drawn to soft watercolour peaks, ink-wash abstracts in amber and teal, vintage lakeside scenes or playful designs for kids, the right mountain wallpaper can turn an ordinary wall into a calm, restorative view. And because so much of its effect comes from that sense of distance, it can open up a small room just as well as it anchors a large one.
In this guide, we'll explore six mountain wallpaper styles and the rooms each one suits best, then share 21 of our favourite mountain mural wallpaper designs, from misty abstracts to storybook scenes. You'll also weigh up light against dark, work out exactly where the horizon line should sit on your wall, and pick up practical styling tips to bring the whole look together.
What Are The Different Mountain Wallpaper Styles?
The main mountain wallpaper styles are watercolour, ombre, abstract, hand-drawn, vintage landscape and kids' designs. They range from soft, misty ridges that feel calm and airy to detailed scenes with lakes, forests and wildlife, so the right style depends on how much drama you want on your wall.
Watercolour Mountain Wallpaper
If you're drawn to calm, airy interiors, watercolour mountain wallpaper is the gentlest way to bring a mountain view indoors. Soft brushstrokes blur the peaks into mist, so the design reads as texture from across the room and shows its detail up close. Pale grey and stone palettes suit Scandinavian, Japandi and minimalist rooms. Because most of the wall stays light, this style is a safe choice for smaller or north-facing spaces. Many watercolour designs leave a band of plain sky above the ridges, which stops a low ceiling from feeling heavy.

Ombre Mountain Wallpaper
Layer upon layer of ridges, each a shade deeper than the last, is what gives ombre mountain wallpaper its sense of distance. The darkest tones sit at the bottom and fade to a pale sky above, which grounds the room and draws the eye upwards at the same time. It's a graphic, modern take on mountains that suits living rooms, bedrooms and home offices. Because the darkest band sits at skirting level, check it against your floor first. A mid-brown timber floor can merge into deep plum or charcoal ridges, so a lighter floor or a pale rug keeps the layers distinct.

Abstract Mountain Wallpaper
For those who love the idea of mountains more than a literal view, abstract mountain wallpaper suggests peaks through washes of colour, soft edges and drifting mist. Ink-wash designs in stone, taupe and amber feel quiet and grown-up, closer to a large painting than a landscape. Abstract styles also handle corners well. With no single focal point to break, you can wrap the design across two walls without anything looking cut off. That makes them a strong choice for living rooms and bedrooms where you want the whole space to feel enveloping, not just one wall.

Hand-Drawn Mountain Wallpaper
Whether you appreciate fine illustration or simply want something a little different, hand-drawn mountain wallpaper brings the character of a sketchbook to your walls. Pencil-like linework picks out rocky ridges and snowfields, often with birds or small details that reward a closer look. Because the drawing is delicate, it works best where people spend time near the wall: along a hallway, behind a console or in a reading corner. Keep the furniture in front low and simple, like a floating sideboard or a slim bench, so the linework isn't hidden.

Vintage Mountain Landscape Wallpaper
Looking for warmth and a sense of history? Vintage mountain landscape wallpaper takes its cue from old oil paintings and scenic murals, with lakes, sailboats, trees and hazy hills in rich, muted colour. It adds instant depth to traditional and eclectic interiors. It's especially effective hung above a painted lower wall or dado rail, where it frames the scene like a painting. Brass lamps, deep teal or navy textiles and dark timber pick up its tones. Bedrooms and dining rooms suit it best, because in both you sit facing the wall.

Kids' Mountain Wallpaper
Children love a wall that feels like an adventure, and kids' mountain wallpaper delivers with snowy peaks, pine forests and woodland animals waiting to be spotted. Brighter, storybook-style designs suit playrooms and nurseries, while simpler line-drawn mountains grow with a child into their teens. Choose a mural where most of the animals sit in the lower half of the wall, at a child's eye level, so there's plenty to discover from the floor or a small table. In an attic room with a sloped ceiling, put the tallest peaks on the full-height wall so the slope doesn't cut them off.
Featured: Mountain Forest, Animal Mural Wallpaper
Which Rooms Are Best For Mountain Wallpaper?
Mountain wallpaper works best in living rooms, bedrooms, dining rooms and kids' rooms, where one long, uninterrupted wall lets the landscape stretch out like a view. Soft, misty designs suit rooms you relax in, while bolder, more playful scenes bring energy to family and dining spaces.
Mountain Wallpaper For The Living Room
The living room is the easiest place to start with mountain wallpaper, because the wall behind the sofa gives the landscape a wide, uninterrupted stretch to unfold. Roerich Twilight layers misty ridges in warm brown, gold and slate blue, and here it wraps right around the room, including the wall between the windows, so the whole space feels immersive. Before you order, measure the height of your sofa back (usually 80 to 90cm) and make sure the first full ridge line sits above it. Otherwise the most dramatic part of the view is hidden. If you'd rather keep it to one wall, choose the one opposite the window, where daylight falls straight onto the design.

Mountain Wallpaper For The Bedroom
A bedroom calls for mountain wallpaper that feels restful from your pillow, so look for soft edges and a low-contrast palette. Roerich Silence fades amber hills into charcoal mist, which feels warm without being bright. Continuing it onto the side wall makes the bed feel tucked into the landscape. Measure your headboard and check that the hills still rise well above it, so the bed doesn't block the view. Warm bedside lamps around 2700K make amber tones glow at night, while bulbs above about 3000K can turn them flat and grey.

Mountain Wallpaper For The Dining Room
In a dining room, mountain wallpaper gives everyone at the table something to look at, so put it on the wall guests face as they sit down. Roerich Valley blends amber, blue-grey and stone mountains in an ink-wash style, warm enough for evening meals and calm enough for everyday breakfasts. Pendants hang right in front of the mural, so set them around 75cm above the tabletop, where they frame the view rather than slicing through it. Brass or bronze shades pick up the golden tones. In an open-plan home, a mountain mural can also mark out the dining zone without adding a partition.
Featured: Roerich Valley, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Mountain Wallpaper For The Kids' Room
Mountain wallpaper is a natural fit for kids' rooms, because the shapes are simple enough for little ones to recognise and open enough to spark stories. Mountain Ridges draws striped and dotted peaks in black on a white wall, and they can be read as mountains or teepees, so the design stays interesting as children grow. The generous white space keeps a small bedroom bright and lets you change bedding, rugs and toys without clashing. Push the bed against the mural wall so the tallest peaks rise above it like a headboard. Our wallpapers are washable, so crayon marks and sticky fingerprints wipe off with a damp cloth.

Now that we've explored the styles and rooms that suit mountain designs, here are 21 of our favourite mountain wallpapers to bring them to life.
Mountain Wallpaper #1: Carol Mountain, Landscape Mural Wallpaper
For anyone who finds calm in wide open spaces, Carol Mountain, Landscape Mural Wallpaper is a soft, restful mountain wallpaper for bathrooms, bedrooms and living rooms. Rolling ridges are painted in watercolour brushstrokes and calming grey tones, with a fine band of pine trees along the base. The pale palette keeps rooms bright, so it suits compact or north-facing spaces where darker murals would close in. In a bathroom, hang it on the wall furthest from the bath or shower splash zone. Pair it with stone-grey tiles and white fittings for a spa-like finish.
Featured: Carol Mountain, Landscape Mural Wallpaper
Mountain Wallpaper #2: Roerich Peaks, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Roerich Peaks, Abstract Mural Wallpaper is the mountain wallpaper to choose if you want a calm, neutral backdrop rather than a bold statement. Its ridgelines are rendered in muted stone and taupe that dissolve into soft mist, like an ink-wash landscape painting scaled up to fill a wall. The almost monochrome palette suits Japandi, minimalist and Japanese-inspired interiors, and lets your furniture and textures carry the room's personality. It works beautifully in living rooms, bedrooms, home offices and hallways. Chocolate velvet, walnut and woven wool bring out its warmth. Skip cool white paint on the walls next to it, because it makes the stone tones look dull.

Mountain Wallpaper #3: Mountain Landscape, Mural Wallpaper
If you love colour with a sense of drama, Mountain Landscape, Mural Wallpaper brings a sunset glow to living rooms, bedrooms and home offices. Layered ridges in a red ombre move from deep plum-red at the base to dusky rose and a soft grey sky, creating real depth across a single wall. The graphic silhouettes give this mountain wallpaper a modern edge that pairs well with charcoal, blush and warm grey furnishings. It also comes in blue, grey and pink colourways if you'd prefer a cooler or softer palette. Choose a wall that catches warm afternoon light, which makes the rose tones glow.

Mountain Wallpaper #4: Danone Mountain, Landscape Wallpaper
Art lovers will find plenty to admire in Danone Mountain, Landscape Wallpaper, a hand-drawn mountain wallpaper for living rooms, studies and entryways. Layered illustrations in the soft grey of graphite pencil build an expansive mountain range, with birds gliding over the peaks. Hung across every wall of a room, it creates a panoramic landscape that feels light and open rather than heavy. The pale background keeps it airy enough for smaller spaces, while rattan, pale oak and dried grasses echo its natural feel. The detail is fine, so place it somewhere you'll see it up close.
Featured: Danone Mountain, Landscape Wallpaper
Mountain Wallpaper #5: Roerich Twilight, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Whether you're styling a living room, bedroom or reading corner, Roerich Twilight, Abstract Mural Wallpaper wraps the space in a quiet, mist-covered mountain range. Layered peaks are painted in warm sienna and gold that fade into cool blue-grey shadow. The hand-painted texture gives this mountain wallpaper real depth and gentle movement. It complements Japandi, Scandinavian, wabi-sabi and warm contemporary interiors, and bouclé upholstery, burl wood and natural stone accessories ground its earthy palette without competing. To bring out the gold, light it with a warm pendant or lamp in the evening rather than cool overhead lights.
Featured: Roerich Twilight, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Mountain Wallpaper #6: Mountain Forest, Animal Mural Wallpaper
Little explorers will love Mountain Forest, Animal Mural Wallpaper, a storybook mountain wallpaper for nurseries, kids' bedrooms and playrooms. Towering pine forests rise towards snow-capped peaks, while deer, foxes, bears and birds hide among the trees, turning the wall into a game of spot-the-animal. Soft, natural tones and hand-painted detail keep it calm enough for bedtime, and it's just as at home in a reading nook, cabin or nature-inspired living room. Natural wood furniture and toys suit the palette best. Keep tall shelving to one side so the animals in the lower half stay visible.

Mountain Wallpaper #7: Roerich Valley, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Bring the warmth of a sunlit valley indoors with Roerich Valley, Abstract Mural Wallpaper, a golden mountain wallpaper for dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms and home offices. Rolling peaks are rendered in honeyed gold, amber and soft sienna, with cool blue-grey undertones layered beneath. The hand-painted gradient reads as one continuous vista rather than a repeat pattern, which is why it looks so natural wrapping around a corner. It suits Japandi, minimalist, warm contemporary and modern Scandinavian interiors. Travertine, brass and warm timber bring out its earthy glow, and walnut joinery beside it makes the gold feel even richer.

Mountain Wallpaper #8: Swan Lake, Nature Mural Wallpaper
With its quiet, storybook charm, Swan Lake, Nature Mural Wallpaper is a graceful mountain wallpaper for nurseries, bedrooms and calm living spaces. Swans glide across a tranquil lake ringed by tall coniferous trees, with soft hills on the horizon and a flock of birds overhead. The dark grey colourway has fine, engraving-like detail in black and white, and there's also a dark blue version if you'd like a touch of colour. The swans and trees sit low on the wall, so keep the furniture in front light and open, such as a ladder shelf or clothes rail, and the scene stays easy to read.

Mountain Wallpaper #9: Roerich Silence, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Quiet, moody and deeply calming, Roerich Silence, Abstract Mural Wallpaper suits living rooms, bedrooms, home offices and dining rooms where you want to slow down. Golden, sunlit peaks fade into deep charcoal shadow, and the wide tonal range from pale amber haze to a near-black foreground gives this mountain wallpaper a contemplative depth without ever feeling loud. It complements Japandi, minimalist, Japanese-inspired and warm contemporary interiors. Dark wood, linen and textured upholstery in olive or taupe keep the mood grounded. If the room gets little daylight, add a floor lamp near the mural so the amber bands don't fall into shadow by late afternoon.

Mountain Wallpaper #10: Safe Heaven, Landscape Mural Wallpaper
For a living room with old-world charm, Safe Heaven, Landscape Mural Wallpaper turns a whole wall into a vintage painting. Sailboats glide across a serene lake framed by green mountains, with lush trees in the foreground drawing you into the scene. This timeless mountain wallpaper brings a sophisticated mood to living rooms, bedrooms and dining rooms, in traditional and contemporary homes alike. A light grey sofa and white panelling let the colours stand out, while green velvet and mustard cushions echo the foliage. Run it across the full width of the wall so the lake reads as one continuous view.

Mountain Wallpaper #11: Roerich Light, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
If you'd rather your walls feel like a gallery piece than a backdrop, Roerich Light, Abstract Mural Wallpaper is a dramatic mountain wallpaper for living rooms, dining rooms, home offices and entryways. Near-black foreground mountains rise through jewel-toned teal-blue forest to a soft golden sky, and the high contrast gives the ink-wash design real depth. It complements Japandi, Japanese-inspired and modern eclectic interiors, and pairs naturally with dark wood, brass and richly textured upholstery. The darkest tones sit at the base, so a charcoal or chocolate sofa blends into the mural instead of cutting across it, leaving the teal ridges and gold sky as the focus.

Mountain Wallpaper #12: Forest Landscape, Ombre Mural Wallpaper
Ideal for Scandinavian and rustic interiors, Forest Landscape, Ombre Mural Wallpaper layers rolling hills and pine-covered ridges in soft bands of colour. Each ridge fades into mist before the next one rises, which gives this mountain wallpaper a calm, receding depth, like looking out over a forested valley. It comes in three ombre colourways (dark green, dark blue and crimson), so it's easy to match to your furnishings. Weathered timber, linen and slate-blue cushions suit the green version especially well. Position it so a pale band of mist sits just above the sofa back, which gives the furniture a clean line to sit against.

Mountain Wallpaper #13: Roerich Hills, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Moody rooms are where Roerich Hills, Abstract Mural Wallpaper really shines. Deep navy-teal peaks roll into near-black shadow beneath a pale, misty sky, giving this mountain wallpaper the presence of statement art rather than a traditional wallcovering. It complements Japandi, Japanese-inspired and modern dramatic interiors, and suits bedrooms, living rooms, home offices, powder rooms and dining rooms. Painting the panelling, skirting and ceiling in a matching dark teal, as shown here, wraps the room in colour and makes the mural feel seamless. Ochre velvet, aged brass and a faded rug keep all that depth feeling warm rather than cold.

Mountain Wallpaper #14: Morning Haze, Blue Landscape Wallpaper
Whether your style leans Scandinavian or simply calm and uncluttered, Morning Haze, Blue Landscape Wallpaper fills a room with the stillness of early morning. Trees rise from rolling hills and plains wrapped in soft mist, all in soothing shades of blue, so this gentler take on mountain wallpaper feels more like a view at dawn than a dramatic peak. It's ideal for bedrooms, living rooms and quiet reading corners. Pale floorboards and a soft green rug keep the palette airy. Blue can read cold in north-facing rooms, so balance it with warm accents like mustard cushions and a warm-white bulb.

Mountain Wallpaper #15: Velvet Horizon, Landscape Mural Wallpaper
Picture early morning mist settling over a lake: that's the mood of Velvet Horizon, Landscape Mural Wallpaper, a hazy, waterside mountain wallpaper for dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms and home offices. Soft mountain silhouettes are reflected in a misty teal lake, painted in gentle washes of aqua, sage and warm grey. It complements Scandinavian, coastal and minimalist interiors, and its watery palette pairs beautifully with bouclé, warm oak and brass. As a full-room mural it feels enveloping, while a single feature wall keeps things light. A sage sofa or green ceramics pick up the colours without adding contrast.

Mountain Wallpaper #16: Mountain Ridges, Mural Wallpaper
Playful yet grown-up enough for shared spaces, Mountain Ridges, Mural Wallpaper scatters striped, dotted and colour-blocked peaks across a pale wall. Children can read them as majestic mountain ranges or cosy camping teepees, which makes this mountain wallpaper a favourite for kids' bedrooms and playrooms. The multicolour version, in dusty pink, sky blue, green and ochre, is cheerful enough for a family dining area too, while the dark grey version keeps things monochrome. Bold furniture, like a lilac table, can pick up the colours without competing, because the white background gives every piece room to breathe.

Mountain Wallpaper #17: Mountain Ridges and Stars, Mural Wallpaper
Bedtime becomes an adventure with Mountain Ridges and Stars, Mural Wallpaper, a whimsical mountain wallpaper for kids' bedrooms, nurseries and playrooms. Layered mountain ranges in shades of blue rise beneath a sky scattered with colourful stars, giving the cosy feeling of sleeping outdoors. Because the mountains fill the lower half, it works beautifully behind a bed, or inside a house-shaped bed frame as shown here. Mustard and navy bedding picks up the stars and peaks, while plain white walls elsewhere keep a small room feeling bright.

Mountain Wallpaper #18: Flowing Hills, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
For a soft, earthy room that feels quietly grounded, Flowing Hills, Abstract Mural Wallpaper brings sweeping, rounded silhouettes that evoke misty mountain ridges or rolling meadows. A wet-on-wet watercolour technique pools pigment at the crests, so the colour gathers low on the wall and leaves the upper portion open and airy. That makes this mountain wallpaper especially good in rooms with exposed beams or sloping ceilings, where you want weight at the bottom and light at the top. It pairs effortlessly with linen slipcovers, rattan and rustic textures, and comes in blue, green and brown.

Mountain Wallpaper #19: Misty Jungle, Landscape Mural Wallpaper
Not every mountain view needs a peak, and Misty Jungle, Landscape Mural Wallpaper proves it with a forested hillside disappearing into fog. Dense green treetops fade into a dreamlike haze, giving this mountain wallpaper a calm, immersive feel for dining rooms, home offices and living rooms. The soft greens suit white furniture and dark timber floors, because the contrast keeps the room crisp. A large indoor plant beside the mural blurs the line between wall and room. The mist lightens towards the top, which makes it a good choice for rooms with lower ceilings.

Mountain Wallpaper #20: Graphic Hills, Pattern Mural Wallpaper
When you want pattern to whisper rather than shout, Graphic Hills, Pattern Mural Wallpaper is the subtlest mountain wallpaper in this collection. Soft, flowing contours inspired by rolling landscapes and layered terrain are printed with a crinkled-paper effect, adding gentle movement and texture without overpowering the space. The white colourway reads almost like a textured plaster wall, while the black version is more graphic. Pale linen sofas, rattan and paper lanterns keep the look calm. It's also a good backdrop for art, because framed prints sit comfortably on top of the low-contrast pattern.

Mountain Wallpaper #21: Twilight, Ombre Mural Wallpaper
Pared back to its simplest form, a mountain wallpaper can be a single hill under a glowing sky, and that's exactly what Twilight, Ombre Mural Wallpaper delivers. A sky blending from blue into warm red sits above a soft white hill and a green horizon, capturing the glow of a sunset. The bold colour blocking suits modern, eclectic and retro-inspired interiors, and gives a bedroom or meditation space a warm, relaxing focal point. Keep furniture slim and low so the gradient stays visible, and paint the skirting to match the green band for a seamless finish.

Should You Choose Light Or Dark Mountain Wallpaper?
Choose light mountain wallpaper if your room is small, low-ceilinged or short on daylight. Choose dark mountain wallpaper if you want a cosy, enveloping space that you mostly use in the evening. Both can feel calm. The difference is whether the walls open the room up or draw it in.
Light Mountain Wallpaper
If your room is compact or doesn't get much direct sun, light mountain wallpaper keeps it feeling open. Pale stone, mist-grey and sand palettes reflect daylight back into the room, and the soft ridges add depth without making the walls feel closer. Light designs are also the most flexible to furnish. Chocolate velvet, olive, rust and black accents all sit comfortably against them, so you can change your sofa or cushions later without repapering. The thing to watch is contrast. Next to a brilliant white ceiling and woodwork, pale taupe can look grubby, so paint the ceiling and trim in a warm off-white taken from the lightest part of the mural.
Featured: Roerich Peaks, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
Dark Mountain Wallpaper
For rooms you mostly use after dark, such as a bedroom, snug, study or dining room, dark mountain wallpaper creates a cocooning, intimate atmosphere. Deep navy, teal and charcoal ridges blur the corners of a room, which can make a small space feel less boxed in rather than smaller. Dark designs look most deliberate when the woodwork joins in. Paint the skirting, panelling and door frames in the mural's darkest shade so the walls read as one continuous scene. Plan your lighting before you paper. Several low lamps at different heights work better than a single ceiling light, which leaves dark walls looking flat.
Featured: Roerich Hills, Abstract Mural Wallpaper
How Do You Decide Between Light And Dark?
Start with the window. Rooms that get little direct sun, or face a neighbouring building, have cooler, flatter light, which suits pale mountain designs and makes dark ones look heavy by mid-afternoon. Rooms that catch strong afternoon sun can carry darker walls, because warm light brings out the depth in layered ridges. Then order a sample and tape it to the wall you plan to paper. Check it in the morning, in the late afternoon and under your evening lamps. Layered mountain designs are worth checking carefully, because each ridge is a different tone and changing light alters how far apart they seem.
Where Should The Horizon Line Sit On A Mountain Mural Wallpaper?
The main ridge line of a mountain wallpaper mural should sit clearly above the tallest piece of furniture on that wall, ideally 20 to 30cm higher, so the peaks stay visible rather than hidden. Because murals are made to measure, you can plan where the landscape will sit before you order.
Measure Your Furniture First
Note the tallest thing that will stand against the wall: a headboard, sideboard, bookcase or high-backed dining chairs. Mark that height on the wall with masking tape, then check where the mural's strongest ridges fall at your wall height. If the most dramatic peaks land below the tape line, they'll be hidden behind furniture. In that case, choose a design whose detail sits in the upper half, or get in touch with our team to talk through the placement. Think about mirrors and wall lights too. A mountain mural rarely needs extra art on top.
Low Ceilings Versus High Ceilings
In rooms with standard or low ceilings (around 2.4m), choose a design with a generous band of pale sky above the peaks. The lighter top edge blurs where wall meets ceiling and makes the room feel taller. With ceilings of 3m or more, let the mountains rise further up the wall, or pick a design where the ridges continue all the way up, so the landscape fills the height rather than leaving a wide, empty band. In rooms with a picture rail, you can stop the mural at the rail and paint above it in a matching sky tone.
Preview The Placement Before Ordering
Every Hello Circus wallpaper is made to measure, so you can see how a mural will sit on your wall before it's printed. Enter your wall's width and height in our Wallpaper Visualiser to preview where the peaks and sky will land, then compare that with your taped furniture line. Pay particular attention to doors and windows. If the highest peak falls right above a door, part of it will be lost, so it's worth discussing the placement with us before you order.
How Do You Style Mountain Wallpaper In Your Home?
Style mountain wallpaper by building the rest of the room from the mural's own palette, keeping furniture low enough for the view to show, and lighting it so the layered tones stay visible after dark. The aim is a room that feels part of the landscape rather than placed in front of it.
Pull Your Colour Scheme From The Mural
Take three colours straight from the design:
- the palest sky tone for the remaining walls and ceiling
- a mid-tone ridge colour for large pieces like a sofa or rug
- the darkest shade for small accents such as a lamp base, cushions or picture frames
Hold paint swatches directly against your sample rather than matching from a screen, because printed mist and gradients rarely look the same on a monitor. Avoid introducing a strong colour that doesn't appear anywhere in the mural. It tends to fight the landscape rather than complement it.
Feature Wall Or Whole Room?
A single feature wall is best for murals with a clear focal point, such as one tall peak, a lake or a sunset, because wrapping them around a corner splits the main scene. Abstract and misty designs with evenly spread ridges are the ones to wrap around a whole room or across two walls, since they have no single point to break. If you're unsure, start with the wall opposite the door. It's the one you see every time you walk in, so it gives you the most impact for the least wallpaper.
Light It So The Layers Show
Mountain wallpaper relies on subtle tonal steps between ridges, and harsh lighting flattens them. Avoid recessed downlights close to the mural wall, because they throw bright scallops across the top and leave the lower ridges in shadow. Use a wall washer or picture light to graze the surface evenly instead, or place floor and table lamps about a metre in front of the wall so the light spreads across the whole landscape. With dimmers, the misty layers gain depth as the evening goes on.
Choosing The Perfect Mountain Wallpaper For Your Home
The best mountain wallpaper is one that reflects the landscapes you love while suiting the light, ceiling height and furniture of your room. Whether you're drawn to soft watercolour ridges, moody ink-wash abstracts, vintage lake scenes or snowy peaks full of woodland animals, a thoughtfully chosen design can turn any space into one of the most memorable rooms in your home. Finish the look with layered lamplight, natural materials like linen, oak and stone, and a palette taken straight from the mural, to create a space that feels both practical and beautifully designed.
