Wallpaper - Blue Lobster

Our Blue Lobster wallpaper by Deborah Revell pairs crisp graphic illustration with an understated, textured backdrop. Drawn with fine ink-like linework and rich slate blue tones, the lobster forms a striking, symmetrical centrepiece with its raised claws and segmented shell. Soft smudges of warm orange and yellow drift lightly across the pale ground, providing a delicate tonal counterpoint to the deep blue motif. The composition balances maritime character with contemporary restraint, creating an eye-catching focal point that feels both artistic and grounded. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, making it straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a dining room, kitchen, or open-plan culinary space where its coastal subject matter feels naturally at home. Because the lobster is a strong, centred motif, giving it a prominent wall behind a dining table or on a feature wall creates an immediate sense of purpose. In a dining area, placing the motif where it remains unobstructed by tall furniture allows the intricate linework and symmetrical form to be appreciated in full. The balance of a pale background with deep slate blue also ensures the pattern does not visually overwhelm smaller dining corners or compact breakfast nooks.

Styling it

To let the graphic detail of the lobster stand out, we suggest pairing our design with clean, contemporary furniture shapes rather than overly ornate pieces. Natural pale woods such as ash or light oak provide a warm, organic contrast to the cool slate blue tones, echoing the subtle warmth in the background smudges. Keeping tableware and decorative ceramics relatively simple allows the illustrative character of the wall to carry the room. If you want to introduce metal finishes, brushed brass or aged bronze accents work nicely alongside the soft golden undertones of the print.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on deep slate blue, contrasted against an off-white textured ground with delicate hints of apricot orange and muted yellow. For adjacent painted walls or joinery, soft warm neutrals and chalky off-whites help maintain an airy, cohesive feel. If you prefer a bolder, moodier contrast, pulling out the deep slate blue for surrounding woodwork, skirting boards, or kitchen cabinetry creates a sophisticated, tonal scheme that frames the mural wallpapers beautifully.
