Wallpaper - Peering Over

Our Peering Over wallpaper captures a weathered brown lighthouse top emerging quietly from soft dune grasses, photographed by Nathan Larson. The composition balances the delicate, upward movement of light green and beige grasses in the foreground against a clear, open sky blue backdrop. Rusted metal, glass panelling, and an aged finial lend the architectural element authentic coastal character without visual clutter. Produced as custom made wall murals, our wallpaper is PVC-free and features a subtle physical structure in the paper that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this coastal photographic design working particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the expansive sky and rising grasses have space to breathe. In a living room, positioning the mural wallpaper behind a lower-profile sofa ensures the detailed grasses remain fully visible while the lighthouse structure draws the gaze upward. The vertical orientation of both the building and the dune foliage makes it equally effective in rooms with standard ceiling heights, creating a sense of vertical openness. For a holiday home, lake house, or guest bedroom, covering a main wall behind the bed frame anchors the space with a calm, expansive horizon.

Styling it

The natural, weather-worn mood of our design pairs naturally with coastal, New England, or classic traditional interiors:

• Keep larger furniture pieces low and grounded in neutral, painted wood or pale timber finishes so the vertical detail of the lighthouse remains the focal point.
• Choose surrounding upholstery and soft furnishings in textured cotton or slubby weaves that echo the soft, organic look of the dune grasses.
• Incorporate subtle aged metal hardware, such as antique bronze or muted iron, to tie into the weathered character of the lighthouse structure.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on pale sky blue, sandy beige, soft muted green, and the earthy, weathered brown of the rusted ironwork. When painting adjacent walls, we suggest pulling out a soft off-white or a very pale stone tone to maintain the bright, airy quality of the sky. For architectural trim, skirting, or built-in cabinetry, a deeper muted navy or a gentle driftwood grey offers a grounded contrast that mirrors the natural coastal tones within the photograph.
