Wallpaper - Summer State of Mind II

Designed by Gia Graham, our Summer State of Mind II wallpaper brings together bright beach motifs and expressive typography in a playful retro graphic style. The illustrated scene features a yellow and red beach umbrella shading a striped beach bag with bright orange flip-flops, paired with a classic red-and-white beach ball, a pink lifebuoy, and a blue surfboard leaning among lush tropical greenery. Overhead, soaring seagulls glide across a sunny blue sky, framed by the hand-lettered text "Summer State of Mind". Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this design adds an energetic coastal mood to interior spaces.

In the room

Because this mural wallpaper relies on a central illustrative focal point and bold graphic lettering, we like to give it a clearly visible feature wall where the entire scene can be enjoyed without heavy disruption. In a children's bedroom, playroom, or teenage bedroom, placing the design behind a low bed frame, desk, or open play zone allows the surfboard, beach accessories, and uplifting quote to anchor the room's personality.

For living spaces, guest rooms, or a bright holiday home interior, our design works especially well where surrounding walls remain plain, letting the saturated colours and upbeat retro character set a cheerful tone. In a powder room or guest bathroom, the bold scale creates an engaging visual statement across a compact wall space.

Styling it

To balance the vibrant palette and 1960s-inspired graphic feel of the illustration, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with simple, functional furniture and natural finishes.

• Keep large furniture pieces in clean, light wood tones or simple white finishes so the focal illustration remains the visual centrepiece of the room.
• Introduce casual textiles, such as plain cotton bedding, canvas cushions, or a woven natural-fibre rug, to complement the laid-back beach theme without introducing competing patterns.
• Echo the retro character with mid-century inspired lighting or simple ceramic accents in subtle, matte finishes.

Colour combinations

The design features a rich palette of sunny yellow, vibrant red, bright orange, hot pink, and clear sky blue, balanced by crisp white accents and deep tropical greens.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, and large furnishings, soft off-white, light cream, or pale sky blue create a fresh, airy backdrop that lets the mural stand out naturally. For a more playful interior scheme, you can draw directly from the illustration by introducing small accents in warm terracotta, sunshine yellow, or soft coral pink through decorative textiles and accessories.
