The wallpaper mural is a simple method to make a bold impact in any room. Rather than employing the help of an artist to paint an entire wall with a detailed design, it combines the simpler process of wallpapering with the unique power of a mural to transform. Gwyneth Paltrow's stunning blue wallpaper mural demonstrates this capability.
We caught a glimpse of her wall mural idea in an Instagram picture taken in her dining room. The shot shows Gwyneth in front of the blue wallpaper, recording her Goop podcast at a white dining table. In the background, we can see the stone fireplace with iron candlestick holders on top. A collection of matte black vases also contrasts the mural.

This beautiful landscape adds drama and beauty to any space. Available in various materials and sizes.
If you prefer bold colors, this blue and white nature design can easily be turned into a mural panel – this one allows you more flexibility with size if you want something wider. Its tiled design feels distinctly European, like something you could find in The Blue City of Porto.
If you want a few mural panels that match, this wall art offers the same effect. This set of three is printed on linen canvas and depicts trees, florals, and birds in a colorful scene.
If you're hoping to replicate Gwyneth's wallpaper idea, focus on the design style that will work best in your home. Chelsea explains: 'When choosing a wallpaper mural, firstly consider the ambience you want to create, and how it will complement the existing furniture or décor. For example, a tranquil nature scene can provide a relaxing feel, making it a perfect option for a bedroom or living room, whereas a bright abstract print can infuse a feeling of energy and excitement into a room, that you would typically look for in kitchens and office spaces.'
If you want to add some boldness to your home without the risks associated with bold design, a wallpaper mural is a great place to start. Take it from Gwyneth Paltrow.
