Storm of Stones and Shadows
Storm of Stones and Shadows – Autumn Edition by Magnus Gjoen for MaVoix is a fresco-style wallpaper that captures the essence of suspended time, where ruin and rebirth coexist in perfect visual harmony.
Inspired by Piranesi-style engravings from a rare 19th-century edition of Paradise Lost, this mural composition elegantly merges classical architecture with contemporary graphic language, giving life to a layered digital fresco of metaphysical allure.
Diagonal lines crossing the composition create an optical weave, generating a subtle vibration that makes the surface appear alive, shifting, breathing.
Roman columns, capitals, and sculptural shadows emerge as archetypal presences in dissolution, immersed in a tonal haze that renders everything still and dreamlike.
In Gjoen’s language, wallpaper is no longer mere decoration but a narrative act.
Each mark surfaces as a visual echo, a fragment recovered from a classical dream that fades into the present.
The camouflage element, discreet and integrated, introduces a conceptual layer of concealment — history hides beneath the surface, ready to reveal itself to those who truly look.
The Autumn Edition is the most earthy and sensual among the Storm of Stones and Shadows variants.
The composition is enveloped in a sophisticated palette of ochre yellows, muted greens, mustard, and dried-leaf tones, with subtle stone-grey shadows adding depth and atmosphere.
The final effect evokes ruins bathed in the golden light of the equinox, where architecture and nature blur into soft, warm chromatic transitions.
A perfect wallpaper for elegant, artistic, contemplative interiors, where time feels suspended and every wall becomes a narrative.
