Behind the mural
Tracy Park
Private client, South Gloucestershire 2026
Elli was commissioned to design and paint a large scenic mural traversing three flights of stairs in the entry hall staircase of this historic, Grade II listed stately home.
The mural takes inspiration from the property's 240 acres of ancient oak parkland and incorporates the abundant wildlife residing there. The ground floor section begins with washy, leafy foliage in muted green hues in a style reminiscent of a 16th century tapestry, paying homage to the tudor-gothic style of the rear façade of the house. They eye is drawn up to the first landing where ancient oaks frame the doorway blending into meadow leading to a hill on the right of the large wall spanning the second flight of stairs. Tall Scots pine trees frame the doorway to the master bedroom and the classical front façade of the house itself is depicted centrally to the top of the large wall which meets the horizon line of the third level section. The ceiling surrounding the skylight features baroque clouds and wraps around to meet the landscape where tall poplar trees, willow and a bucolic pond scene frame the upper landing.

Chelsea Townhouse Project
Charlotte Säve, London 2025
This mural was commissioned by the Swedish interior designer, Charlotte Säve, for the Chelsea Townhouse project she designed.
Elli worked with Charlotte to design a tonal scenic mural in vibrant greens which would work within the space to add warmth and depth to the setting. An English oak tree features in one corner of the room, with a silver birch and a pine tree on the other side. Native trees which would not look out of place in the English countryside were chosen, while giving a subtle nod to the Scandinavian landscape. The foliage extends up over the cornicing and ceiling in areas to achieve harmony in the space – a feature that is unique to bespoke murals which cannot be achieved with traditional wall coverings.

Ludwig Bemelmans-inspired
playroom mural
Private client, London 2025
This mural was inspired by the work of the Austrian-American writer and illustrator, Ludwig Bemelmans. Well-known for creating the "Madeline" picture books, Bemelmans completed an iconic series of murals during the late 1940s in the bar of the Carlyle Hotel. His work has inspired numerous interior designers and artists in recent times.
Elli was commissioned to create a whimsical playroom mural in the style of Bemelmans, but telling the clients' story across the walls. Each scene is unique to the clients, paying homage to the places special to them – from Venice, to Naples, Tuscany, Milan and London. The scenes feature family members, pets, family businesses and heritage, designed to transform the space into a truly special and personal place to grow and play.

Woodland Play Area
Aflux Designs, London 2026
Commissioned by Aflux Designs, the brief was to create a cosy woodland corner to provide the backdrop for children's climbing and play apparatus affixed to the wall and ceiling in this London home. Elli was asked to transform the space with illustration-like woodland animals and leaves cascading over the ceiling. Tree and foliage were painted in muted colours in a variety of tones to create the illusion of depth in this cosy corner.

Charlie Mackesy-inspired mural
Private client, London 2025
This mural was inspired by the much-loved children's book "The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse" by Charlie Mackesy, a story about friendship, love, kindness and the courage to be vulnerable.
Elli was commissioned to recreate "the wild" wintry landscape providing the setting to the story, incorporating the clients' three-year-old-daughter with the animal characters, in the nook in her bedroom.
