The Composition

What the mural describes.

Feel the monumental calm as rows of stepped pyramid silhouettes rise before you, each perfectly symmetrical form ascending in measured increments. From the deep Pharaoh Black ground, each tier graduates from the warm Dark Bronze at its base to a luminous Sand Gold at its apex. Occasional, precious accents of Lapis Blue appear like inlaid jewels at the peak of select pyramids, catching the light as if at dawn. It is a scene of profound stillness, where the ziggurat, the oldest monumental form, meets the sleek lines of Art Deco, creating a vision that is both ancient and thrillingly futuristic.

This mural imbues living rooms, bedrooms, studies, and hallways with an atmosphere of sophisticated grandeur and quiet power. Printed on matt non-woven paste-the-wall paper, each numbered panel is crafted precisely to your wall’s dimensions, ensuring a seamless and enduring installation.

Questions

Asked of the studio.

What is the inspiration behind the Stepped Pyramid mural?

The Stepped Pyramid mural draws inspiration from the global fascination with ancient Egypt following the 1922 discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb. This led to the stepped pyramid motif becoming a defining symbol of Art Deco, bridging ancient architecture with futuristic design.

How is the colour palette used in this design?

The palette features a deep Pharaoh Black ground, with pyramids graduating from Dark Bronze at the base to luminous Sand Gold at the apex. Lapis Blue acts as a precious accent, appearing as inlaid jewels at the peaks of select pyramids, adding a touch of vibrant contrast.
