Wallpaper - Seaside Star

Designed by Anne Tavoletti, our Seaside Star wallpaper brings an artistic coastal motif to life through bold ink-style line work and graphic contrast. The large-scale white starfish takes centre stage against a deep teal blue backdrop, complemented by subtle silhouettes of sea fans and gentle rising bubbles. What we particularly appreciate is how the hand-painted, textured appearance of the linework softens the graphic scale, creating a look that is both striking and serene. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the starfish motif is composed at an expansive scale, we think this design works particularly well on an uninterrupted accent wall where the full detail of the ink drawing can be seen without heavy obstruction. In a bathroom or cloakroom, it introduces a clean nautical feel that brings depth to smaller layouts. For a seaside retreat or holiday home, it creates a fresh focal point when placed behind a bed or along a main living wall, especially in spaces that receive bright, open daylight to highlight the contrast between the crisp white drawing and the deep teal background.

Styling it

To let the graphic artwork lead the room, we would keep surrounding materials calm and grounded. Light or bleached timber furniture sits naturally against the sea blue tones without competing for attention, while unadorned white painted trim maintains the clean, fresh atmosphere of coastal design. If you are styling this in a bathroom, simple brushed brass or polished chrome fixtures provide a classic contrast against the rich teal wall. Simple, textured cotton textiles in natural ecru or pale sea salt tones help bridge the wall colour with the rest of the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by a deep teal blue base paired with chalky white and pale sea-glass detailing. Around it, we recommend continuing with soft off-white or light stone paint shades on adjacent walls to keep the room feeling airy. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, drawing out the darker ocean teal for woodwork or bathroom panelling creates an intentional, tonal scheme. For smaller accents, muted sandy neutrals and warm terracotta tones offer a natural, sun-bleached balance to the cool water tones.
