Wallpaper - Mirage

Our Mirage wallpaper, created with artist Lovisa Burfitt, brings soft watercolor washes together in an airy, abstract composition. Gentle transitions of pastel pink, blue, yellow, and green drift across the surface in fluid, cloud-like layers, creating a light and painterly atmosphere on the wall. What we particularly like about this design is the balance between broad, flowing sweeps of wash and delicate tonal edges that keep the repeat feeling open rather than heavy. Produced made to measure on our PVC-free wallpaper paper with a subtle surface texture, it provides an expressive yet quiet backdrop for a variety of residential spaces.

In the room

In a bedroom or dressing room, we like using this design behind a bed or dressing table where the soft gradients can frame the furniture without competing with it. Because the watercolor forms are broad and organic rather than sharply defined, the pattern feels natural across larger wall areas, making it just as suitable for an entire living room or an art studio. In smaller spaces such as a nursery, toddler room, or playroom, the gentle pastel tones introduce color without overwhelming the room. The subtle shifts in watercolor wash also respond nicely to natural daylight, which brings out the light layering between the cool blue and warm yellow tones.

Styling it

Because the wallpaper has a fluid, artistic presence, we suggest pairing it with furniture that has clean, understated lines to let the wall remain the focal point. Light-toned wood furniture or painted white pieces complement the airy quality of the pastel backdrop, while simple linen or cotton textiles in unbleached, natural tones keep the overall room feeling calm and grounded. If you want to introduce a touch of contrast, slender black metal accents or muted ceramic pieces work well alongside the softer painted forms.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper centers on a gentle pastel palette of soft pink, light sky blue, pale sunny yellow, and muted green watercolor washes. Around the design, we recommend keeping larger adjacent painted surfaces in soft off-whites, pale warm ivory, or a very light chalky grey to maintain the breezy, luminous feel. For accent pieces, pulling out the pale blush or sage green from the motif through cushions, throws, or decorative ceramics creates a cohesive and thoughtful connection across the interior.
