Wallpaper - Pacific Surf II Sepia

Our Pacific Surf II Sepia wallpaper brings the dynamic energy of coastal waters into a vintage photographic composition. Created by Nathan Larson, this photographic wall mural captures a surfer navigating a breaking ocean wave against a backdrop of pine-covered coastal headlands. The sepia-toned monochrome palette, combined with subtle photographic grain and soft-focus vignetting around the edges, gives the design a timeless, nostalgic character. Printed to order, our made-to-measure mural wallpapers are PVC-free and feature a subtle physical structure in the paper surface.

In the room

Because of its strong horizontal composition and photographic focal point, we see this design working particularly well as an accent wall in a living room, bedroom, or home office. The central action of the surfer is framed by surging sea spray and darker tree silhouettes, making it ideal for a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full ocean vista can stretch out. In a study or guest bedroom, placing this design behind a low sofa or a desk keeps the dramatic swell and pine ridge fully in view, grounding the room with a sense of open-air atmosphere without overwhelming the surrounding space.

Styling it

The nostalgic photographic grain and warm sepia tones pair naturally with mid-century modern, coastal, or rustic interior directions. To balance the motion of the ocean spray, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture clean-lined and understated.

Warm wood tones such as teak, walnut, or lightly aged oak complement the earthy monochrome finish of the scene. For soft furnishings, relaxed neutral fabrics like undyed wool or simple woven cottons echo the organic feel of the Pacific coastline without competing with the detail in the image.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on rich sepia tones, charcoal-infused darks, creamy off-whites in the ocean foam, and soft taupe mid-tones.

Around this mural, we recommend leaning into warm neutrals such as soft off-white, light warm grey, or muted stone on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want to introduce deeper contrast, rich charcoal or espresso brown on cabinetry or shelving works well to pick up the deep tones in the coastal trees and wetsuit.
