Wallpaper - Medusa, Cobalt

Our Medusa, Cobalt wallpaper captures the quiet, drifting motion of delicate jellyfish across a rich navy backdrop. Each creature is rendered with a translucent, watercolour-like appearance in shades of soft blue and white, with flowing tentacles that loop and curl naturally through the composition. The contrast between the deep marine ground and the lighter organic shapes gives the motif a floating, luminous character across a room. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our wallpaper creates an expressive, ocean-inspired backdrop that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in a bedroom, where the deep navy ground creates an enveloping, settled mood behind a bed. Because the pattern relies on organic movement rather than a rigid geometric grid, it flows easily across both wide, uninterrupted walls and smaller spaces such as a powder room or bathroom. In a living room, it works wonderfully as an accent wall to anchor a seating area, where the lighter blue tentacles bring visual rhythm to the darker background. Under softer evening lamps, the contrast deepens, while daytime light brings out the subtle tonal shifts in the watercolour forms.

Styling it

To let the fluid forms of the jellyfish take centre stage, we would keep surrounding furniture shapes relatively simple. Low-profile furniture pieces in warm or mid-tone woods provide a natural, grounded contrast to the cool marine palette.

We would pair this design with matte finishes and unpatterned textiles, avoiding competing graphic prints so the wall remains the primary visual element. Crisp white or soft blue details elsewhere in the space help carry the lighter tones of the motif across the interior without cluttering the overall scheme.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper pairs a deep navy base with lighter blues, watery cobalts, and crisp white details.

For surrounding walls and painted woodwork, we would look to off-whites, pale sky blues, or soft muted greys that echo the lighter accents in the tentacles. If you prefer a moodier, fully cohesive look, wrapping adjacent trims or doors in a matching deep navy helps the design blend seamlessly into the architecture of the space.
