Wallpaper - Sunday on the Coast I

Our Sunday on the Coast I wallpaper features a rhythmic composition of stylised sailboats drifting across a textured, woven-look backdrop. What we particularly like about this design by Pela is how each boat carries distinct patterned sails, ranging from geometric mosaic-like tiles and polka dots to delicate floral and semi-circular motifs in shades of navy, denim, and sky blue. The varied boat sizes create a subtle sense of depth across the wall, while the crisp contrast against the off-white background brings a fresh maritime character. Like all our wallpapers, this mural is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, making it easy to hang in any room.

In the room

We see this coastal design working exceptionally well in spaces where you want a relaxed, maritime touch without overwhelming the room. In a child's bedroom, nursery, or playroom, the graphic boat shapes and playful sail patterns offer plenty of visual interest at eye level.

Because of the staggered arrangement of large and small boats, the design sits comfortably on both feature walls and wider, uninterrupted surfaces in a living room, dining area, or holiday home. In a bathroom or powder room, placing this wallpaper above panelling or on a main wall brings a clean, classic New England feel to the space.

Styling it

To complement the graphic nature of the sailboats, we suggest pairing this wallpaper with simple, timeless interior elements:

• Crisp white painted trim or tongue-and-groove wainscoting to echo the clean, coastal aesthetic and anchor the lower half of the wall.
• Natural, light wood finishes such as bleached oak or ash to bring warmth that balances the cooler blue palette.
• Textured linen or woven cotton textiles in neutral tones to mirror the woven visual texture present in the wallpaper's background.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on a maritime mix of navy, cobalt, denim, and soft sky blue against a soft off-white background.

When choosing surrounding colours, warm whites and soft creams work naturally on adjacent walls and ceilings, keeping the room feeling airy. If you want to introduce deeper contrast, a dark navy or ink blue on doors, cabinetry, or window frames picks up the hulls of the larger boats and frames the wallpaper with confidence. For a gentler, more subdued palette, pale coastal greys and muted duck-egg tones also harmonise effortlessly with the blues.
