Wallpaper - Maritime Stars Blue on Blue

Our Maritime Stars Blue on Blue wallpaper brings a playful coastal character to the wall, pairing hand-painted style sea stars with decorative rope-like floral knots. Designed by Daphne Brissonnet, the pattern features turquoise and seafoam starfish alongside soft cream and red-accented knotted motifs across a rich navy blue backdrop with subtle canvas-like visual texture. The balanced, rhythmic repeat gives the design an energetic and whimsical feel without overwhelming the space. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is custom made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, making it straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in spaces where you want to introduce an upbeat, maritime mood. In a children's bedroom, toddler room, or playroom, the lively motifs add personality and cheerful charm. Because the repeating pattern is evenly distributed, it works equally well across all four walls of a smaller room or as an expressive accent behind a bed or low shelving unit.

The rich navy ground also makes it a great candidate for a downstairs powder room or family bathroom, where the coastal subject feels right at home. In a holiday home, summer house, or cabin by the coast, the design creates an instant connection to the seaside. For rooms with plenty of daylight, the contrast between the deep blue background and the bright turquoise stars stands out crisply, while softer evening lighting brings a cosy, enveloping atmosphere to the space.

Styling it

To keep the focus on the nautical motif, we would balance this pattern with clean-lined furniture and light, natural finishes. Crisp white or off-white painted timber furniture keeps the room feeling fresh and open, echoing the cream outlines in the motif. Lighter wood tones like blonde birch or pale oak also work harmoniously, grounding the sea-inspired theme without making the room feel overly heavy.

In bedrooms or play areas, simple bedframes or low storage units in pale neutrals let the wallpaper do the visual storytelling. We recommend keeping larger surrounding textiles relatively plain, opting for solid blues, unbleached cotton, or crisp white bedding and window dressings so the graphic star repeat remains the hero of the interior.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a vibrant marine palette of deep navy blue, bright turquoise, soft seafoam, and chalky white, highlighted by small touches of warm coral-red inside the rope knots.

For adjacent painted walls, woodwork, and skirting, a warm off-white or soft cream is a natural companion that lifts the deep navy background. If you want a more cohesive, immersion-style look, matching the trim to a deep navy blue can create a tailored, jewel-box effect in a small bathroom or hallway. For accent pieces like cushions, throws, or decorative ceramics, bringing in pops of coral, terracotta, or warm sand picks up on the subtle rope details and adds warmth against the cool aquatic blues.
