Description
What does the Scholars Garden Chinoiserie Sky design show?
The scene brings together flowering shrub trees, a fruiting pomegranate underplanted with moss, blue-and-white porcelain planters and a scattering of swallows and songbirds against a pale sky. Weathered scholar's rocks and peony bushes sit along the ground line, giving the composition a garden-like progression from one side of the wall to the other.
What colours does this mural use and how will they feel in a room?
The palette rests on a pale, slightly grey-toned blue with deep green foliage and bursts of red from the pomegranate fruit and peonies. Blue and green are the easiest colours to live with in rooms meant for rest, while the red concentrates energy in one area rather than spreading it, so the wall stays calm overall with a lively focal point.
Can this mural run along a long wall without the join showing?
Yes. The scene is set up to tile horizontally, so if your wall is wider than one panel the pattern continues into the next length without an obvious seam. The birds and foliage are spaced so the repeat sits quietly rather than drawing attention to where one panel ends and the next begins.
Which wall in my home suits a scenic mural like this?
A mural like this is composed to be taken in as a whole scene, so it works best on a wall you can actually step back from, such as the one behind a dining table or a sofa, rather than a narrow passage you only glimpse in passing. Give it enough room to read the pomegranate tree and birds together.
Which wall should I choose for this mural?
It is generally worth papering the wall that faces you as you walk into the room, or the one the furniture is already arranged to look at, since that is the wall that gets seen. A wall you only pass without facing it will not show off the scene the way it deserves.
