Wallpaper - Summer State of Mind I

Our Summer State of Mind I wallpaper brings a playful, sunlit shoreline directly to the wall. Designed by Gia Graham, this graphic illustration captures gentle blue waves rolling onto a sandy beach beneath a warm glowing sun, gliding birds, and distant coastal hills. A classic red and yellow umbrella shades a striped tote and beach ball, while the phrase "Happiness Comes in Waves" arches across the sky in bold coral lettering. The soft pastel palette and retro sixties aesthetic give our design an upbeat, relaxed feel that works beautifully in casual living spaces, playrooms, and summer homes. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it is straightforward to install on your chosen wall.

In the room

Because of the graphic composition and uplifting typography, we see this design shining as an accent wall where the entire scene has space to breathe. In a playroom, toddler room, or teenage bedroom, placing this wall mural behind a bed or low play table keeps the horizon and playful beach details clearly in view. It also feels right at home in a vacation home, lake house, or poolhouse bathroom, bringing a bright holiday feel to relaxed weekend living. On a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall, the layered landscape elements create an open horizon that adds visual depth without overwhelming the surrounding room.

Styling it

The retro feel and warm coastal palette pair naturally with relaxed furniture and clean shapes:

• Choose simple mid-century silhouettes or light wood furniture that complement the subtle sixties aesthetic without competing with the bold illustration.
• Bring in textured natural fibres like woven rattan baskets, jute accents, or unbleached canvas to echo the sandy shore motif.
• Keep surrounding storage and shelving low to ground level so the central umbrella motif and arched quote remain the clear focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

Our mural wallpapers feature a harmonious mix of coral lettering, soft sea blues, warm sandy tones, and cheerful red and yellow accents. When choosing paint for adjacent walls or trim, consider pulling out the warm sandy undertone or a soft off-white to let the wallpaper stand out naturally. For a slightly bolder look, a muted sky blue or a soft terracotta accent on painted furniture will tie seamlessly into the sky and lettering in our design.
