Wallpaper - Pacific Surf I

Our Pacific Surf I wallpaper brings the raw motion of ocean swell into interior spaces through fine photographic detail by Nathan Larson. The composition captures a surfer cutting across a breaking wave, surrounded by white sea spray, deep ocean teal, and softer seafoam tones against a quiet, overcast sky. The horizontal momentum of the wave gives the design a natural rhythm that works across both wide and compact walls. Produced as made-to-measure wallpaper murals, each piece is printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making it straightforward to install and tailored to your room dimensions.

In the room

In a living room or open-plan living area, we would place this design along a main uninterrupted wall where the full expanse of the wave can stretch out naturally. Positioning it behind a low sofa or dining table keeps the central surge of the wave in clear view while grounding the room with deep oceanic tones.

For a bedroom, home office, or teenage room, our mural wallpapers work well as a dedicated feature wall behind a desk or bedhead. The pale, muted sky at the top of the frame keeps the upper wall visually light, while the darker waters anchor the lower half of the space. In areas with plenty of natural daylight, the subtle differences between deep teal, frothy white crests, and cool sea-grey tones come through clearly.

Styling it

Because the photographic scene has its own visual movement, we like to keep surrounding furniture relatively clean in silhouette. Low-profile seating and unadorned shelving allow the horizontal line of the wave to remain the main focal point of the room.

To balance the cool, fresh palette of the ocean, we recommend bringing in warm wood tones such as teak, warm oak, or birch. Light, relaxed fabrics like unbleached cotton or washed linen cushions complement the coastal atmosphere without feeling overly nautical or themed.

Colour combinations

The design itself is built around a palette of deep ocean teal, slate blue, crisp sea-spray white, and soft overcast grey.

When choosing paint colours and materials for adjacent walls, trim, or larger furniture, we suggest:

• Soft off-white or chalky pale grey to echo the muted sky and keep adjoining walls bright.
• Muted navy, charcoal, or deep petroleum blue on skirting boards, doors, or accent pieces to pull out the darker depths of the wave.
• Muted sandy beige or warm canvas neutrals to add warmth and contrast naturally against the cool water tones.
