Wallpaper - Codfish

Our Codfish wallpaper brings a lively school of illustrated blue fish across the wall, drawn with fine ink-like details across their scales, textured fins and curious eyes. Each cod faces in unison with tails curved gently upwards, accompanied by delicate drifting bubbles on a soft, light background. What we particularly like about this design by RNM Arts is the balance between playful illustration and considered rhythm, where the powder blue tones keep the repeating motif open and easy on the eye. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in spaces where you want to introduce movement and personality without overpowering the room. In a bathroom or downstairs powder room, the aquatic motif feels right at home, especially when wrapped around multiple walls to create an immersive, cheerful setting.

In a kitchen or breakfast area, we like the idea of running the design along a feature wall or above low cabinetry. The light powder blue backdrop maintains an airy atmosphere, while the rhythmic spacing of the fish allows the repeat to flow smoothly around door frames, mirrors or windows without losing its visual structure.

Styling it

To complement the illustrated ink style and maritime feel of our Codfish design, we recommend pairing it with clean, tactile surfaces that do not compete with the pattern.

In a bathroom or powder room, clean white sanitaryware and simple chrome or brushed stainless steel fixtures ground the playful character of the fish. If you are decorating a kitchen or dining nook, pale wooden elements such as ash or bleached timber furniture echo the light, relaxed feel of the background. Keeping larger furniture and wall fixtures relatively understated lets the illustrated linework remain the focal point.

Colour combinations

The design is built around soft powder blue, deeper navy blue ink accents, and a clean, light base.

To keep the room feeling fresh, pair this wallpaper with crisp whites, off-whites, or very soft chalky greys on surrounding woodwork and ceilings. If you want a bit more contrast, dark ink blue painted cabinetry or doors draw out the deeper tones in the scales and fins, creating a cohesive, well-anchored scheme.
