Wallpaper - Broad Reach

In our Broad Reach wallpaper, four sailboats with clean white sails and red hulls glide across a painted ocean. Created by Courtney Prahl, this impressionistic seascape balances deep sea blues with soft hints of pink and pale sky across the upper horizon. The visible brushstrokes and painterly texture give the water a lively movement while keeping an open, calm visual presence across the wall. Made-to-measure and PVC-free, this design brings a serene coastal character into the home with the subtle physical texture of our wallpaper paper.

In the room

We see this design working naturally across a main wall in a living room, bedroom, or entryway, especially in homes inspired by coastal or New England aesthetics. Because the sailboats carry distinct vertical height and the ocean occupies the lower third, the composition creates an expansive visual horizon. In a lake house, vacation home, or everyday living space, we would place this mural where the full width of the sailing formation has space to breathe, such as behind a low-backed sofa or framing an open dining area.

Styling it

To keep the focus on the painterly brushwork and maritime atmosphere, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with tailored, understated furnishings. Clean white painted woodwork, crisp cotton or linen upholstery, and warm wood accents like light oak or weathered teak complement the coastal mood without feeling themed. Avoid crowded gallery walls or overly tall shelving on this surface so the open water and soaring white sails remain the focal point of the interior.

Color combinations

The primary palette centers on rich ocean blues, crisp sail whites, deep navy, and grounding terracotta-red along the boat hulls, complemented by pale sky blues and touches of blush pink near the horizon. When choosing paint and textiles for surrounding surfaces, soft off-whites, cool sea-glass tones, and sandy neutrals echo the lighter parts of the sky. For a bolder accent in cushions or painted woodwork, pulling the deep navy or red hull tone from the boats creates a cohesive, grounded finish.
