Wallpaper - Surf Bus no.2

Our Surf Bus no.2 wallpaper brings a retro surf aesthetic to the wall with a soft, watercolour-inspired character. Designed by Carrie Cantwell, the illustration features a vintage camper van finished in burnt orange and cheerful blue, detailed with green fenders, round windows, and two surfboards strapped to the roof alongside a standing board with a yellow centre stripe. The pastel palette gives the scene an inviting, whimsical presence without overpowering the room. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure, PVC-free, and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We see this design working naturally as a feature wall in a children's bedroom, playroom, toddler room, or teenage space. Because the camper van and surfboards form a distinct focal illustration, the wallpaper works especially well on an uninterrupted wall where the vehicle can be viewed in its entirety. Positioning it behind a low bed, cot, or play table keeps the motif visible and establishes a playful sense of adventure across the room.

Styling it

To keep the focus on the illustration, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with relatively simple furniture shapes and natural textures. Lighter wood tones work nicely alongside the relaxed coastal feel, echoing the warm undertones of the design. Soft textiles in washed cotton or neutral tones help balance the colourful artwork, allowing the vehicle and surfboards to lead the space without feeling cluttered.

Colour combinations

The design centres on a balance of warm burnt orange, pastel blue, fresh green, and bright yellow accents. When choosing paint for neighbouring walls, soft off-whites, pale sky blues, or muted sand shades complement the wallpaper effortlessly. If you prefer a warmer look, pulling out the burnt orange through accent cushions, a blanket, or painted storage creates an energetic connection across the interior.
