Wallpaper - Maritime Tiles Yellow and Blue

Designed by Daphne Brissonnet, our Maritime Tiles Yellow and Blue wallpaper brings the expressive charm of Mediterranean ceramic tilework into an orderly, repeating grid. The design alternates between distinct painted tile motifs, combining ornate acanthus-like scrolls, geometric diamond layouts, and stylized citrus and floral elements. Hand-painted visual textures and varying brushstrokes give each tile a lively, individual character in a palette of cobalt, teal, sunny yellow, warm ochre, and fresh green against an off-white ground. Like all our wallpapers, this design is PVC-free and produced made-to-measure on paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

The repeating tile grid gives this wallpaper a structured rhythm that brings vibrancy to walls without feeling chaotic. In a kitchen, we love using this pattern across a prominent wall near a breakfast area or dining table, where the cheerful palette adds immediate warmth. It also works beautifully in a powder room or guest bathroom, where the individual tile illustrations can be appreciated up close. Because the repeating square format creates its own neat visual boundaries, the pattern holds together well both on wide, open walls and in smaller, more contained spaces.

Styling it

To let the intricate tile motifs remain the focus, we suggest pairing this wallpaper with relatively simple surrounding furniture. Painted cabinetry in crisp white, deep navy, or muted olive balances the lively brushwork, while warm terracotta elements or unglazed ceramics echo the traditional Mediterranean feel. Lighter wood finishes keep the space bright and airy, allowing the vivid blues and yellows to stand out naturally.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a vibrant interplay of rich Mediterranean blues, teal, warm yellows, and soft green accents set over an off-white tile base with fine ochre grout lines. When selecting paint colors for adjacent walls or woodwork, a warm off-white creates a seamless, bright backdrop. For a more grounded, defined contrast, deep maritime navy or classic cobalt pulled directly from the tile details provides striking definition around door frames, skirting, or built-in cupboards.
