Wallpaper - Vintage Summer II

Our Vintage Summer II wallpaper by Leslie Trimbach captures a lighthearted seaside afternoon in a soft watercolour style. In the foreground, a bright pink flamingo inflatable rests on the sand beside a yellow bucket, blue spade, and pink rake. Green palm leaves frame the upper edge of the composition, looking out over calm ocean water towards a pale, open sky. The warm pastel palette blends strawberry pink, soft blue, sunny yellow, and gentle green to give the scene an airy, cheerful feel. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it is a playful design that adds character without overpowering a room.

In the room

We especially like this design for spaces dedicated to children, whether that is a nursery, a toddler room, or a dedicated playroom. The composition works particularly well on an open feature wall, such as behind a cot, a low bed, or a reading corner, where the seaside details in the lower half remain visible. Because the upper half of the mural is kept open and light with calm sea and sky, it gives smaller bedrooms a sense of openness rather than feeling crowded. It also feels right at home in a family summer house or holiday cottage, bringing a sunny, nostalgic character to a guest bedroom or casual family area.

Styling it

The soft watercolour quality and warm pastel shades pair naturally with light, unpretentious furnishings. We recommend keeping surrounding furniture simple and relaxed:

• Choose lighter wood finishes such as pale ash, light birch, or white-painted furniture to maintain the bright, airy feel of the beach scene.
• Introduce woven textures like a simple jute or seagrass floor rug and rattan storage baskets to complement the sandy shore tones.
• Keep bedding and window dressings in soft, solid neutrals or pale washed pastels so the playful details of the wallpaper remain the focal point.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a warm palette of strawberry pink, sunny yellow, soft sky blue, and fresh palm green, balanced by the pale sand tones across the foreground. For neighbouring painted walls and woodwork, warm off-white or light sand shades create a calm, seamless backdrop that lets the motif stand out. If you want to echo the colours in the wallpaper, subtle accents in pale pastel blue or soft rose pink across cushions, lampshades, or painted shelving tie the whole room together effortlessly.
