Wallpaper - Retamar Palms

Our Retamar Palms wallpaper captures the dramatic transition of twilight along a quiet coastline, photographed by Tono Balaguer. Crisp silhouettes of palm fronds sweep across a glowing gradient of deep mulberry purple, rich orange, and soft pink, while a delicate crescent moon rests in the upper sky above calm coastal water. The strong tonal contrast between the dark foliage and the radiant evening sky gives this wall mural an expressive, atmospheric presence. Like all of our wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure, PVC-free, and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

In a living room or bedroom, we like using this design across a wide, uninterrupted feature wall. The horizontal flow of the horizon and distant coastline needs breathing space, allowing the vertical sweep of the palms to create height while anchoring the room. Placing it on the main wall behind a bed or low-profile sofa gives the room an atmospheric focal point without overwhelming everyday living.

Because the colors are so rich and saturated, the wallpaper responds beautifully to changing light throughout the day. In bright natural daylight, the subtler pink and dusky purple nuances across the sky become clearly defined. Under warm artificial lighting in the evening, the deep oranges and mulberry tones take on a richer, more enveloping quality that suits intimate, relaxed spaces.

Styling it

We recommend pairing this scenic mural wallpaper with clean, low-slung furniture shapes that do not cut awkwardly into the palm silhouettes. Keeping the surrounding elements grounded and visually quiet lets the rich palette of the mural remain the primary visual focus.

Deep, warm wood tones like walnut or smoked oak resonate naturally with the darker foliage and earthy sunset hues. To balance the intense color gradient, incorporate textured woven fabrics such as bouclé, raw linen, or ribbed textiles in muted, neutral shades. Matte black metal accents on lighting or table frames can subtly echo the sharp silhouette of the trees, tying the whole room together.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a bold palette of dark mulberry purple, fiery orange, dusky pink, and deep silhouette tones.

For adjacent walls and woodwork, we suggest soft, muted shades that echo the sky without competing with its saturation. A warm, dusty mauve or a deep charcoal on surrounding trim can frame the mural with confidence, creating a moody and cohesive look. If you prefer a lighter contrast, a warm linen white or pale taupe on adjoining surfaces keeps the room open and lets the sunset colors pop.
