Wallpaper - Big Sur

Our Big Sur wallpaper captures the rugged drama of McWay Falls and its secluded coastal cove, where towering cliffs and coastal trees frame a clear turquoise bay. What we particularly like about this photographic design is the rich contrast between the vivid aquamarine water, the sandy shoreline, and the warm, earthy tones of the rocky headlands. Mist resting above the forested crest adds a quiet atmosphere to the upper horizon, creating a balanced landscape with strong visual depth. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our mural wallpapers bring an expansive sense of open nature into the interior.

In the room

Because this coastal landscape relies on wide perspective and sweeping scenic scale, we see it working especially well across a larger, relatively uninterrupted living room wall. Placing it behind a main sofa or along an open dining area lets the full view of the bay and waterfall unfold without being heavily broken up by tall furniture.

In a vacation home or a dedicated lounge, our wall murals establish a calm, grounded focus while visually opening up the space. The balance of warm cliffside tones below and mist-softened sky above ensures the design does not overwhelm the room, sitting comfortably with natural daylight during the day and taking on a warmer, moodier depth under low evening lamps.

Styling it

To let the coastal photography remain the clear focal point, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture simple in silhouette and grounded in natural materials. Low-profile seating in neutral upholstery lets the turquoise water and rugged rocks hold visual priority.

Warm timber finishes, such as natural oak or warm-toned walnut, echo the earthy cliffs and foreground foliage naturally. You might also introduce matte ceramic accents or simple stone surfaces to complement the rugged coastal textures without adding competing visual pattern.

Colour combinations

The design itself centers on vibrant aquamarine and turquoise blues, balanced by sandy beige, warm terra-cotta cliff tones, and deep forest greens.

When choosing paint colours for adjacent walls or woodwork, soft warm whites, muted sand tones, or warm pebble greys create a seamless, cohesive transition. If you prefer to draw out the deeper elements of the scenery, a deep muted olive or a rich terracotta accent on adjacent joinery or soft furnishings will reinforce the grounded warmth of the coastal landscape.
