Wallpaper - Flying Over The Tropics

Captured from an overhead aerial perspective by photographer Jan Christopher Becke, our Flying Over The Tropics wallpaper brings the dramatic natural contrasts of an exotic shoreline directly to your interior. The composition balances deep slate granite boulders and lush emerald palm canopies against clear turquoise waters and soft sandy shallows. The sweeping coastal view creates an open, expansive atmosphere on the wall, allowing the organic shapes of the rock formations and tropical foliage to serve as a distinctive focal point. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

Because this design functions as a full landscape scene with distinct visual weight between the rocky shoreline and the water, we see it working particularly well across a wider, uninterrupted feature wall. In a living room or a holiday home setting, placing it behind a low-profile sofa lets the full scale of the coastline unfold without interrupting the detail of the turquoise water. The deep emerald greens and granite tones also make it a striking backdrop for an open-plan living or dining space, where generous daylight helps bring out the subtle shifts in the water and foliage.

Styling it

To let the aerial coastal photography take centre stage, we suggest pairing this design with simple contemporary furniture that keeps sightlines open. Clean-lined pieces in light woods or painted neutral finishes help ground the space while allowing the vibrant natural colours of the wallpaper to define the room.

• Choose low-slung, streamlined furniture to keep the horizontal line between the rocky coast and the water visible across the wall.
• Introduce natural woven accents or simple linen fabrics to complement the organic shapes of the palm trees and granite boulders without competing for visual attention.
• Keep surrounding accessories quiet and minimal, drawing on simple earthenware or matte finishes that echo the earthy rock formations.

Colour combinations

The design itself features rich emerald and vivid leafy greens, deep slate grey rock formations, soft off-white sand, and clear turquoise and aqua water. When considering surrounding walls and trim, we recommend picking up on the softer sandy off-white or light stone tones to create a balanced, bright transition. For a more grounded, contemporary look, pulling the slate grey from the granite rocks into adjacent painted surfaces or large upholstery pieces creates a refined, cohesive environment.
