Wallpaper - Summer State of Mind I

In our Summer State of Mind I wallpaper by Gia Graham, a playful beach scene brings an easygoing warmth to the wall. Soft waves meet a sandy shoreline beneath distant hills and a glowing sun, with birds gliding across a calm sky. A bold red and yellow parasol shades a striped bag and beach ball, while the uplifting phrase "Happiness Comes in Waves" sweeps across the scene in large coral lettering. Rendered with flat graphic shapes and soft pastel tones, our mural wallpapers are made-to-measure, PVC-free, and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

Because this design functions as an illustrative scenic wall mural, we like giving it a prominent, relatively open wall where the complete composition and typography can be read easily. It sits naturally in a playroom, nursery, or teenager's bedroom, where its joyful coastal character brings colour without visual clutter. The warm coral palette and tranquil beach motif also work beautifully on a feature wall in a downstairs cloakroom, family bathroom, or relaxed garden room. In rooms with lower ceilings or smaller proportions, keeping the surrounding walls in a complementary pastel tone helps the mural feel integrated rather than overwhelming.

Styling it

We recommend letting the wallpaper serve as the clear focal point of the room, keeping larger furniture clean-lined and understated so the graphic illustration has space to breathe.

• Pair the warm tones of the mural with light natural woods such as birch, ash, or pale pine to enhance its laid-back coastal feel.
• Balance the illustrative detail with smooth painted surfaces or simple, unpatterned furniture rather than competing prints.
• Echo the seaside mood through lightweight cotton or canvas textiles in soft off-white, muted coral, or sun-washed yellow.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper centres on warm coral and soft orange tones, balanced by gentle pastel blues, sandy neutrals, and accents of bright yellow and red. Around the mural, we would draw out the paler sand and sky tones on adjacent walls to keep the room feeling airy and bright. For painted furniture, doors, or woodwork, a soft warm white or muted terracotta creates a gentle, cohesive dialogue with the coral lettering and sunset glow.
