Wallpaper - Kojima Island, Japanese Woodcut

Our Kojima Island wallpaper draws on the classic character of Japanese woodblock prints, depicting a dramatic coastal landscape where dark rocky cliffs rise from rolling waves. Rendered in shades of light and deep blue, the water features curved white crests that bring gentle visual rhythm across the composition. In the pale blue sky above, a bright sun glows softly alongside fluffy white clouds and two birds in flight. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because of the sweeping perspective and horizontal movement in the water, we particularly like this design on a wider, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. It works beautifully in a bedroom behind a low bedhead or in a dedicated meditation room where its quiet coastal motif can set a peaceful visual tone. We also see it working naturally in a guest bathroom or holiday home living space. Giving the mural a wall with minimal tall furniture allows the full balance between the surging sea and open sky to remain visible.

Styling it

To complement the woodcut aesthetic and clear Japanese print influence, we suggest pairing this design with low-profile furniture and restrained interior elements:

• Choose warm, low-slung timber furniture, such as natural ash or light oak, to echo traditional Japanese woodwork without competing with the blue tones of the sea.
• Keep surrounding textiles simple and tactile, opting for unbleached cotton or plain woven fabrics that ground the room without adding competing patterns.
• Add understated ceramic or stoneware vessels in matte stone, off-white, or muted indigo to subtly reflect the coastal palette.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres around cool ocean blues, sky blue, crisp white, and the dark, slate-toned silhouettes of the coastal rocks. When painting adjacent walls or selecting room trim, soft chalky whites, pale sky greys, or muted bone tones create a clean transition that keeps the room open and airy. For larger upholstered pieces or cabinetry, a deep navy or dark charcoal will pick up the darker elements in the cliff tops and create a grounded, cohesive feel.
