Believe In The Magic Of The Season

“December brings in the festival season as well as the smell of the winter. It spells its magic in the form of Christmas, snow, family gatherings and a brand new year to start. Hence it inspired me to create this wallpaper which essentially just denotes the month of magic, belief and hope of a good new year.” — Designed by Charuta Puranik ⁷⁹⁰ from India.

Evening In December

“When people think about December, most of them think about celebrating, family, presents,… But I have tried to think differently. I have tried to look at the nature in December. I thought about… a full moon, stars, clouds, snow, wolves, dark nights and conifers. I have tried to display this in my wallpaper.” — Designed by Dean De Beuckeleer ⁸⁴² from Belgium.
