Wallpaper - Close to Me

Our Close to Me wallpaper brings the expressive movement of an impressionist coastal landscape directly into the room. Created by Jeanette Vertentes, the artwork translates the atmosphere of the shoreline through broad, painterly sweeps of color. Warm sandy beige, soft whites, and earthy tones define the shoreline, balanced by layered strokes of ocean blue, gentle pink, and soft sea green across the water and sky. A distant horizon anchored by deep green accents grounds the composition. Printed to order on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, our mural wallpapers are custom made to your dimensions and designed to be straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the design features an expansive horizontal composition with soft transitions, we find it works particularly well across wider, uninterrupted wall areas. In a living room or primary bedroom, placing this wall mural behind a sofa or bed allows the painterly sky and distant shoreline to remain clearly visible, anchoring the space without overwhelming it.

In a dining room or open entryway, the layered pastels and warm sandy tones introduce an inviting, artistic atmosphere. The impressionistic brushwork has a relaxed visual rhythm that feels open and airy, making it just as effective on a single feature wall as it is in a dedicated home office or guest room where you want a thoughtful, creative backdrop.

Styling it

We recommend letting the painterly character of the wallpaper guide the surrounding interior. To balance the expressive brushwork, pair the mural with furniture that features clean, modern silhouettes and quiet textures.

Natural materials such as light oak, bleached ash, or woven cane complement the warm sandy beige across the lower half of the design. For upholstered seating or bedding, unpatterned fabrics in off-white, oat, or muted sea-glass tones help the room feel cohesive without competing with the dynamic strokes in the artwork.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper palette blends warm sandy beige, soft whites, and earthy ochre with gentle pastel blue, delicate rose pink, and hints of coastal green and deep charcoal.

When choosing paint colors for adjacent walls, trim, or cabinetry, we suggest drawing from the softer background tones in the motif. A warm chalky white or pale linen tone on adjoining walls keeps the space bright and seamless. For a subtle contrast, consider a dusty sky blue or a soft sage green drawn directly from the water reflections.
