Wallpaper - Treasure Map

Our Treasure Map wallpaper captures the spirit of early maritime exploration through an intricate, ink-drawn illustrated pattern. Created by PA Seven, the design features archipelago islands dotted with fortified walled settlements, castle towers, and lighthouses, with vintage galleons navigating a stylised, wavy sea. The warm, parchment-toned landmasses and sandy yellows contrast gently against a soft greyish-blue water background, accented by subtle hints of terracotta on the rooftops. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this pattern brings storytelling and historic charm to any interior.

In the room

With its rhythmic repeat and engaging illustrative detail, this design works especially well in spaces meant for focus, leisure, or storytelling. In a home study, library, or home office, we like how the cartographic elements create a classic backdrop across an uninterrupted main wall or wrapping around a reading nook. The vintage maritime theme also makes it a charming choice for a children's playroom or teenage bedroom, where the ships and fantasy islands invite close inspection.

Because the pattern combines open sea areas with detailed landmasses, it maintains visual balance across larger surfaces without overwhelming the room. In a living room or den, using this design behind a sofa or low shelving allows the full narrative of the ships and islands to remain visible and engaging.

Styling it

We recommend letting the illustrated detail of the wallpaper take centre stage by pairing it with classic materials and grounded furniture shapes.

Rich, warm wood tones such as antique oak or walnut complement the golden-yellow and parchment shades in the islands, reinforcing a traditional study or heritage feel. For upholstery and larger textiles, simple woven textures in neutral ecru, muted navy, or earthy taupe help keep the overall scheme calm. Simple brass accents or vintage lighting fixtures echo the historic navigational character without making the room feel overly themed.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper's palette centres on warm sunflower and ochre yellow tones across the land, paired with a muted grey-blue base that defines the ocean waves, with dark ink linework and soft brick-red details on the architecture.

To create a cohesive scheme, we suggest pulling surrounding paint colours from the muted sea tones, such as soft slate grey, smoky blue, or chalky off-white for woodwork and adjacent walls. If you prefer a richer, cozier atmosphere, deeper marine blues or warm terracotta accents can be drawn from the ship details and castle roofs to tie the space together naturally.
