Wallpaper - In the Ocean III

Created by Courtney Prahl, our In the Ocean III wallpaper features a striking fish silhouette composed of intricate collage patterns against a light, lined background with faint handwritten script. Inside the fish form, geometric swatches, text fragments, musical notation, and varied shades of green, teal, chartreuse, and turquoise come together to create a playful, graphic focal point. This design brings a whimsical, art-led character to the wall while maintaining an open, balanced feel. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure and completely PVC-free.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in an open, bright kitchen or an adjacent dining space where a creative focal wall adds personality without overwhelming the room. Because the detailed collage motif sits centered within an open, neutral ground of delicate vertical stripes and faint handwriting, it performs best on a relatively uninterrupted wall. Placing it along a feature wall near a kitchen table or breakfast nook allows the fine visual details within the fish silhouette to be appreciated up close, while the generous light background keeps the wider space feeling airy and calm.

Styling it

The collage-inspired aesthetic naturally suits contemporary, eclectic, or modern spaces. We suggest pairing this wallpaper with clean-lined cabinetry or simple wooden dining furniture in pale birch or blonde ash, allowing the graphic fish to remain the primary point of interest. Keeping surrounding decor relatively pared back, with minimal decorative clutter and understated ceramics or matte black metal accents, provides a crisp counterbalance to the mixed patterns within the artwork.

Colour combinations

The motif contains a vibrant mix of lime green, deep forest, soft chartreuse, turquoise, and teal, set against an off-white, lightly striped backdrop with soft grey script. To complement these tones, we recommend surrounding the wallpaper with off-white, warm linen, or pale stone paint on adjacent walls. If you prefer a richer accent elsewhere in the room, picking up on the deeper teal or muted olive tones from within the collage can tie the entire interior together cohesively.
