Wallpaper - Seafood Shanty White VII

Designed by Anne Tavoletti, our Seafood Shanty White VII wallpaper brings together a crisp horizontal stripe motif with a relaxed watercolour feel. Set against a clean white ground, the pattern layers bands of cherry red, coral, coastal blues, and fine dark dotted lines, creating a rhythmic and cheerful maritime character. What we particularly appreciate about this design is the hand-painted appearance of the washes, giving each stripe subtle variations in opacity and tone rather than a rigid graphic edge. Printed to order on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it is straightforward to hang and adds an energetic coastal presence to any interior.

In the room

The horizontal flow of our striped pattern makes it particularly effective for expanding the visual width of a room. In a kitchen, breakfast nook, or dining space, we love using this design across a main feature wall where the rhythmic red and blue bands can run uninterrupted behind open shelving or seating. Because the repeat combines broad colour bands with delicate dotted lines, it also works remarkably well across multiple walls in more compact areas, providing visual interest without feeling overly heavy.

Styling it

To complement the Americana and coastal undertones of this design, we suggest pairing it with clean, classic elements. Warm white cabinetry, painted timber furniture, and natural wood accents such as light ash or weathered oak provide an easy balance against the crisp red and blue stripes. Keeping larger surrounding furniture relatively simple allows the wallpaper's painted details and varied line weights to take centre stage.

Colour combinations

The palette is anchored by bright cherry red, softer coral tones, sky blue, and deeper ocean blue over a white backdrop, accented by fine dark grey or black dashes. For adjacent walls, woodwork, and cabinetry, we recommend crisp off-whites, soft chalky neutrals, or a pulled-through navy blue to ground the space. If you want to introduce additional warmth, subtle accents in natural woven textures or pale terracotta can echo the red and coral bands nicely.
