Wallpaper - Group Sail Chops

Our Group Sail Chops wallpaper brings a tranquil maritime scene to life through expressive, watercolour-like brushstrokes. Designed by Chris Paschke, the motif captures a fleet of sailboats navigating rolling sea swells under a wide, pale sky. We particularly like how the deep steel blues and sea-spray tones in the lower half ground the composition, while the airy sails and translucent washes above lend the mural an open, breezy character. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wallpaper with a subtle paper texture, it provides an understated yet artistic coastal presence for any home.

In the room

Because of the distinct horizontal division between the choppy water below and the open sky above, we find this mural wallpaper works exceptionally well on wide, uninterrupted walls. In a living room or behind a dining table, giving the boats room across a full wall creates a peaceful, expansive backdrop without overwhelming the space. The visual weight sits primarily in the lower portion of the design, which means lower furniture, such as a low-profile sofa, sideboard, or bed frame, sits naturally against the deeper blue tones while keeping the sails in clear view. It also makes a fitting choice for a calm bedroom or an airy home office in a lake house or coastal retreat.

Styling it

To complement the fluid watercolour character of this wall mural, we suggest keeping the surrounding decor clean and uncomplicated. Contemporary and Scandinavian-inspired interiors pair naturally with the design's breezy aesthetic.

We would pair this wallpaper with pale, natural timbers such as bleached oak or ash to reflect the light, maritime mood. White, off-white, or soft grey linen textiles help keep the atmosphere soft and relaxed. For hardware or accent pieces, muted finishes like brushed nickel, matte black, or frosted glass echo the cool steel blues without competing with the movement of the waves.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on cool, maritime shades: deep steel blue, slate, soft ocean grey, and crisp white highlights.

When choosing paint for adjacent walls and woodwork, crisp chalky whites or very pale mist greys create a seamless, airy transition that lets the wall mural remain the focal point. If you want a moodier, more enveloping feel in an entryway or snug, drawing out the deeper steel blue for the skirting boards or surrounding doorframes anchors the room beautifully. Light neutral tones like washed grey and clean white work best for larger furniture pieces to maintain an open feel.
