There's a particular mood that coastal wallpaper does well, that unhurried, light-filled quality you get in rooms near water. This coastal wallpaper collection is built around that feeling, from soft wave patterns to nautical knots and watercolour stripes, all with a beach house calm about them.
Whether you're after relaxed and sun-bleached or something crisper and more nautical, these are designs for rooms where the aim is calm over statement. Bring the seaside in without a single shell-shaped ornament in sight.
Where coastal wallpaper works
Coastal wallpaper suits the rooms you want to feel lighter. It works beautifully as a feature wall behind a bed or sofa, and as a full room wrap in smaller spaces like bathrooms, cloakrooms and hallways. The nautical knot and stripe designs in particular bring a structured edge that holds up well in a bathroom or hallway, while the softer wave patterns settle into bedrooms and living rooms. If you're decorating a beach house or a coastal cottage, this is the calm, collected end of the look rather than the themed one.
Colours, from soft blues to deep navy
Colour is half the charm of coastal wallpaper. The range runs from gentle light blues and sandy beige, the soft, sun-bleached end of the look, through to a richer Mediterranean mid-blue and deep navy for something moodier and more nautical. Some designs lean breezy and ocean-fresh, others have a quieter seaside-cottage warmth to them, so there's a coastal wallpaper here whether you want a room to feel airy and beachy or grounded and lived-in. If you've a particular shade in mind, every design can be recoloured for free; send me your paint code and I'll adjust the artwork to match your room before it prints.
Made to order
Every coastal wallpaper design is available in peel and stick, traditional non-pasted and pre-pasted. All patterns are original artwork, drawn by hand by Sara at Summer Skye Studio, printed to order on quality paper using eco-friendly materials.
Order a sample first. Coastal colourways shift more than most depending on your light, and what reads as cool blue on screen can warm up in a south-facing room.
