Wallpaper - Antarctica

Our Antarctica wallpaper brings the stillness of polar scenery into a room through photographic landscape art by Jan Becke. At the centre of the composition, a large iceberg with ridged, weathered contours rests in calm, clear water, revealing luminous aquamarine blue tones beneath the surface and a soft reflection below. Across the distant horizon, snow-covered mountains and smaller ice formations sit beneath an open, clouded sky. Printed as a made-to-measure mural on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an expansive, horizontal view that gives interior walls an airy sense of depth.

In the room

Because of the sweeping horizon and open water in the foreground, we find this landscape works best when given a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall. In a living room, placing it along the main wall behind a low sofa allows the full width of the frozen sea and distant mountain range to remain in view. The horizontal composition naturally draws the eye across the space, making it a fitting feature wall in rooms where you want to introduce visual openness.

In a dedicated home office or study, the calm blue palette provides a quiet, uncluttered background behind a desk or workspace. For smaller rooms or quiet sitting spaces, installing the mural across a wall with minimal tall furniture preserves the balance between the open sky above and the ice formations below.

Styling it

To complement the photographic clarity and cold tones of the landscape, we suggest pairing this design with simple furniture lines and quiet, natural finishes.

• Choose low-profile furniture in light wood finishes, such as bleached ash or natural birch, which echo the airy quality of the sky without competing with the blue tones.
• Layer textiles in unbleached cotton, woven wool, or pale grey knits to introduce warmth and physical texture against the cool landscape motif.
• Keep wall decor and surrounding decorative objects minimal, allowing the sweeping horizon and clean water reflections to remain the main visual focus.

Colour combinations

The palette of this design is defined by cool aquamarine blues, crisp whites, and misty grey-blue tones in the sky and distant peaks. The deeper blue shades in the submerged ice ground the composition, while the pale reflections keep the overall atmosphere light.

When choosing paint colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or built-in shelving, we recommend cool off-whites, soft misty greys, or muted slate blues that pick up the tones of the water. For accent details in cushions, throws, or decorative ceramics, deep navy or charcoal provides a grounded contrast against the bright ice, while warm ivory helps soften the overall cool temperature of the room.
