The Shining wallpaper

#wallpaper #Freebies

LMNT made a version called The Overlook Hotel that is an improvement in pretty much every way.

The Shining wallpaper is a nod to one of the greatest horror movies of all time: Stanley Kubrick's The Shining. There are versions of the background available for a handful of resolutions.

The original carpet was brighter and higher contrast which made it difficult on the eyes, so I tweaked them a bit. It's probably still too strong to be used in every context but it's a good starting point.

If this isn't enough of a The Shining fix for you, check out The Overlook Hotel. Coudal Partners' Stanley Kubrick archive is also worth a visit.
