Wallpaper - April Gray II

Our April Gray II wallpaper by Mike Schick brings together broad geometric arcs, clean intersecting lines, and painterly brushwork in a quiet neutral palette. Off-white, soft cream, and varying shades of cool slate and charcoal gray meet along curved contours outlined with subtle hints of warm ochre and muted lilac edge lines. The balance between bold abstract geometry and delicate sketch-like pencil marks creates an architectural yet artful presence on the wall. Made to measure for your exact wall dimensions, our wallpapers are PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle physical surface structure that feels natural and refined.

In the room

Because of its generous geometric scale and sweeping curved planes, we see this design working especially well across a wider uninterrupted wall in a living room, dining room, or behind a bed. The large curved segments need horizontal breathing room so the full architectural rhythm of the composition can be appreciated from across the space.

In an open-plan living area or a quiet home office, the restrained tonal contrast keeps the room feeling open and balanced without overwhelming surrounding functional areas. In spaces with ample natural daylight, the subtle painterly texture within the cream and slate gray blocks becomes more noticeable, while under softer evening lamp light, the warmer ivory and ochre edge lines take on a cozier presence.

Styling it

The clean geometry and painterly textures of this mural wallpaper naturally lend themselves to contemporary, mid-century, or minimalist interiors. We suggest pairing it with furniture that has clean, low profiles so the sweeping lines of the design remain visible.

Pieces in warm, light-to-medium woods like natural oak or ash provide a gentle organic contrast to the cool slate tones. For upholstery, textured solid fabrics such as boucle, wool, or woven neutral linens complement the painted character of the wall mural without competing for pattern attention. Simple matte black or brushed bronze metal accents echo the darker gray segments and delicate boundary lines within the artwork.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design centres on soft off-white, light warm cream, chalky gray, and deep slate, with fine contour lines in muted ochre and faint lilac.

To create a cohesive room scheme, we recommend taking cues from the lighter segments and carrying a soft chalk white or warm pale gray across adjacent walls and architectural trim. For larger upholstered furniture or floor coverings, deep charcoal, stony greige, or soft ecru anchor the space naturally. If you want to introduce subtle accent colors, muted terracotta or dusky plum will quietly pick up the delicate line accents hidden along the pattern seams.
