Wallpaper - Mavericks, Sapphire

Our Mavericks, Sapphire wallpaper captures the surging energy of rolling ocean breakers in a bold, graphic illustration. Stylised curling crests and frothy white foam cut across a deep sapphire blue background, with fine ink-inspired linework tracing the curves and movement within each swell. The contrasting scale of the waves gives the repeat an energetic rhythm that feels both structured and full of motion. Printed to your exact dimensions, this PVC-free design has a subtle paper structure that gives our wallpapers a clean, refined presence on the wall.

In the room

We love how this design brings natural drama into a space without feeling chaotic. In a bathroom, the crisp white crests against the deep blue backdrop create a fresh, maritime atmosphere that feels intentional and composed. The rhythmic wave pattern also works wonderfully across a feature wall in a holiday home living area or a dedicated meditation room, where the rolling forms provide an immersive visual focus.

Because the wave motifs carry strong horizontal movement and rich tonal contrast, we find the pattern performs at its best on broader, relatively uninterrupted walls. Giving the composition space to flow allows the full scale of the swells to unfold naturally across the room.

Styling it

The graphic quality and clean lines of this wave illustration pair naturally with simple, unpretentious interior elements that let the design take the spotlight.

• Pair with light-toned timbers like ash or pale birch to complement the deep blue tones without competing with the strength of the artwork.
• Introduce crisp white ceramics and light linen textiles to echo the bright froth of the wave crests across the surrounding space.
• Keep surrounding furniture profiles low and contemporary to ensure the sweeping movement of the pattern remains visible and uncluttered.

Colour combinations

The core palette of our design centres on deep ocean blue, vibrant sapphire, and crisp white foam accents. When decorating around this wallpaper, we recommend echoing these clean tones on adjacent painted surfaces with pure chalk whites or very soft off-whites that draw out the brightness of the spray.

For accents and larger furnishings, muted sea-spray blues, cool slate greys, or even deep navy provide a tonal continuation that grounds the space. If you want to introduce a touch of warmth, natural sandy tones and light unvarnished wood create a balanced dialogue with the cool sapphire backdrop.
