In the Day colour option stunning shades of deep blue, aqua, and green make up this pictorial landscape scene.

The design can be repeated out to cover further walls by using another roll in the same order (A B C D) until the required area is papered. Depending upon the wall height, the panel can be trimmed at the top, bottom or both to create the desired scene.
