Wallpaper - Three Whales

Our Three Whales wallpaper by Yvette St. Amant brings a clean, graphic marine motif to the wall with three stylized whales swimming across a crisp white ground. Each whale is defined by fluid, brushstroke-like stripes in layered tones of blue and navy, balanced by delicate linear details across the fins and flukes that lend a sense of gentle movement. The open composition gives the design an airy, contemporary feel with plenty of negative space around each figure. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this design is straightforward to hang and brings a considered artistic touch to any living space.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in nurseries, children's bedrooms, and playrooms where its illustrative character adds charm without overwhelming the room. Because the three whale silhouettes are arranged with generous white space between them, the motif breathes easily across a wide feature wall behind a cot or bed. In a family bathroom or downstairs powder room, the clean contrast of navy and white creates a fresh, nautical atmosphere. For living rooms or dining areas in a coastal home, giving this mural wallpaper an uninterrupted wall allows the full sweep of the figures to take centre stage without feeling crowded by taller furniture.

Styling it

To balance the graphic blue forms, we would pair this wallpaper with light, warm timber such as ash or natural birch, which keeps the interior bright and grounded. Simple contemporary furniture with soft curves echoes the fluid contours of the whales, while unpatterned textiles in off-white or washed denim blue keep the focus on the wall mural. Keeping surrounding accessories uncluttered and tactile helps the clean Scandinavian aesthetic of the illustration stand out naturally.

Colour combinations

The design centres on deep navy, ocean blue, and softer slate tones set against a pure white backdrop. On neighbouring painted walls, soft off-white or pale chalky blue extends the airy mood of the wallpaper without competing with the navy strokes. For woodwork, doors, or cabinetry, a deep navy creates a striking tailored frame around the motif, while muted sea-glass greens and soft charcoal accents work harmoniously across cushions and loose furnishings.
