Wallpaper - Two Whales

Our Two Whales wallpaper by Yvette St. Amant brings a clean, graphic marine motif into the room with quiet balance. Set against a crisp white background, two stylised whales glide across the wall in soft watercolour tones. The upper whale features a mosaic-inspired pattern of geometric shapes in light and navy blue, while the lower whale introduces rounded forms with fine lined detail along the underside. The generous negative space keeps the composition light and airy, allowing the deep oceanic hues to stand out without overwhelming the space. Like all our wall murals, it is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure.

In the room

We see this design working naturally in a nursery, children's bedroom, or playroom, where the playful subject matter feels right at home while maintaining a sophisticated, contemporary aesthetic. Because the whales are positioned with plenty of open white space around them, this mural wallpaper is particularly well suited to a feature wall behind a cot, low bed, or reading nook. The open background also means that everyday furniture will not visually crowd the illustration. For older spaces, such as a study, guest bedroom, or bathroom, the minimalist Scandinavian feel of the linework provides a calm, coastal accent that feels artistic rather than overly juvenile.

Styling it

To complement the clean, modern feel of our design, we suggest pairing it with simple, natural elements that let the artwork take centre stage. Light wood furniture, such as pale ash or birch, harmonises effortlessly with the bright background and soft blue tones. Keep surrounding textiles relatively understated in plain off-white, oatmeal, or navy blue to echo the shades within the motif. Choosing furniture with soft, rounded contours will mirror the fluid curves of the marine illustration, creating a cohesive, uncluttered room scheme.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by deep navy blue, softer watery blue tones, and a clean white background. When painting adjoining walls or selecting trim, a soft chalky white or warm off-white creates a seamless, bright continuity. If you prefer more contrast, introducing accents in rich navy, muted slate blue, or warm sand on curtains, upholstery, or painted cabinetry will ground the room and highlight the cool aquatic palette of the mural.
