Wallpaper - Two Sails

Designed by Yvette St. Amant, our Two Sails wallpaper brings a serene maritime presence to the wall through an understated, painterly composition. Two white sailing boats rest on gentle, reflective water, defined by slender masts and warm brown outlines that stand out softly against a gradient of pale smoke, soft grey, and muted coastal blue. The open backdrop and subtle horizontal brushstrokes give the artwork an expansive, uncluttered atmosphere that works exceptionally well as a calm focal point. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the composition relies on an open, airy background with two central boats, we find this design performs best on a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full horizon line and gentle water reflections can be seen across the space. In a quiet bedroom, positioning the sailboats behind the bed headboard creates a restful backdrop that does not overwhelm the room with heavy patterning. It also feels very much at home in a living room, open-plan space, or meditation room, especially where generous natural light highlights the delicate transitions between soft grey and pale blue. For rooms with lower ceilings, the tall, slender masts introduce a pleasing vertical line that naturally draws the eye upward without making the wall feel busy.

Styling it

To complement the organic modern aesthetic of our mural wallpapers, we suggest pairing this design with unpretentious furnishings that echo its minimalist, coastal feel:

• Choose low-profile furniture in pale woods, bleached ash, or off-white painted finishes to maintain the open, uncrowded character of the scenery.
• Bring in textiles with simple, honest weaves, such as unbleached linen cushions or light wool throws, which balance the smooth, painted look of the water.
• Keep wall art and decorative accessories on adjacent walls minimal, allowing the clean lines of the boats to remain the clear anchor of the interior.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself is built around a refined palette of pale grey, soft smoke, off-white, and understated water blues, framed by fine brown linear accents. When decorating around it, we recommend continuing those soft tones onto adjacent painted walls with chalky whites, warm greys, or muted stone shades. If you want to introduce contrast, deep charcoal or warm umber accents in decorative hardware or shelving will pick up the dark lines of the hulls and masts without disrupting the quiet balance of the palette.
