Wallpaper - Formby Beach

Our Formby Beach wallpaper captures a quiet coastal dusk, bringing together warm sunset hues with deep evening sea tones. Designed by Steve Heap, this scenic mural wallpaper features sand dunes covered in wild grass rising in the foreground, leading down to wet sand marked with footsteps and gentle rolling waves. Overhead, scattered clouds catch the glowing transition of golden orange, soft pink, and dusky purple against a deepening navy sky. The panoramic composition adds rich atmospheric depth to a room, creating a grounded, tranquil focal point. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We love how this coastal landscape balances strong horizontal layers with vertical depth, making it an excellent choice for a main feature wall in a living room, bedroom, or quiet study. In a living area, placing the mural behind a low-backed sofa keeps the sand dunes and beach details visible while allowing the vibrant sunset sky to draw the eye upward. In a bedroom, setting the horizon behind a headboard creates an enveloping backdrop that feels grounded and peaceful at the end of the day. Because the composition relies on an expansive, panoramic perspective, we recommend installing it across a wider, uninterrupted wall where the full sweep from dunes to open sea can unfold naturally.

Styling it

To let the rich sunset sky and darker ocean tones stand out, we suggest keeping nearby furniture low in profile and clean in form. Mid-toned wood finishes, such as warm oak or teak, echo the golden tones in the dunes without competing with the darker navy shades. For seating and soft furnishings, soft woven textiles in off-white, oatmeal, or muted sandy tones complement the shore without adding unnecessary visual clutter. Keeping surrounding decorative pieces simple helps the detailed landscape remain the primary focus of the room.

Colour combinations

The design itself centers around deep navy and coastal blues contrasted against warm golden orange, dusty rose, and muted dune greens. When painting adjacent walls or woodwork, soft warm whites or sandy stone neutrals provide a seamless transition that enhances the warm horizon. For a bolder, more cohesive atmosphere in a dining room or study, deep navy or slate blue paint on surrounding trim echoes the dusky sky and creates a rich, tailored feel.
