Wallpaper - Mint Cottage Days III

Our Mint Cottage Days III wallpaper mural, created by Elizabeth Urquhart, captures a serene coastal scene defined by open water and gentle movement. A white sailboat glides across an expansive turquoise ocean under a pale, soft sky, with subtle ripples catching the light across the water. The clean horizon line divides the composition with calm balance, giving the seascape an open and airy feel. Rendered with a soft, watercolour-inspired character, this wall mural brings a peaceful maritime presence to interior spaces. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our wallpapers are designed to be straightforward to hang in your home.

In the room

We see this seascape design working especially well across a main feature wall where the unbroken horizon has space to stretch out. In a living room, placing the mural wallpaper behind a low-profile sofa lets the sailboat and open sky remain fully visible, creating a refreshing focal point that naturally draws the eye across the room. The cool turquoise and pale blue palette also suits a bathroom, introducing a clean, airy atmosphere without overwhelming smaller spaces. Because the visual weight is concentrated in the lower turquoise portion while the upper sky remains minimal and light, the design helps maintain an open, uncluttered feel even in rooms with standard ceiling heights.

Styling it

To complement the breezy coastal character of this mural, we suggest pairing it with furniture and accents that keep the room light and grounded:

• Choose pale or natural timber furniture, such as light ash or bleached wood, which echoes the maritime feel without competing with the vibrant turquoise tones.
• Incorporate relaxed white or unbleached neutral fabrics for seating and upholstery, creating a clean contrast against the cool blue backdrop.
• Keep wall decor minimal on adjacent walls to allow the wide expanse of sea and sky to serve as the clear focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a refreshing palette of clear ocean turquoise, pale sky blue, and crisp white details on the sailboat and sails. To build a balanced palette around the design, we recommend soft off-white or chalky white on neighbouring walls and woodwork to maintain the bright, breezy character. Soft sandy beige or muted grey tones on larger furniture pieces provide a gentle neutral foundation that balances the cool blue water, while subtle slate or navy accents in smaller decorative pieces can echo the deeper ripples in the ocean.
