Wallpaper - Storm Coming

Our Storm Coming wallpaper, created by Silvia Vassileva, captures a serene coastal horizon through painterly brushwork and an atmospheric neutral palette. Broad strokes of smoke gray, muted sand, soft lavender-gray, and deep ocean teal suggest the quiet moments before a seaside storm. The expansive sky dominates the upper composition, balancing the gentle movement of waves washing ashore in the foreground. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this mural wallpaper working especially well across a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizon line can stretch naturally across the room. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard creates a calming focal point, while in a living room, it offers an open, airy feeling behind a low-profile sofa. Because the lower section holds the beach and shoreline while the upper two-thirds consist of sweeping clouds, standard-height furniture can easily sit against the wall without concealing the main visual interest of the sky.

Styling it

To complement the painterly brushstrokes and coastal atmosphere, we suggest pairing this design with understated furnishings in relaxed, natural materials.

• Choose low-slung seating and case goods in pale woods like ash or bleached oak to preserve the visual openness of the horizon.
• Layer soft, washed linen textiles and woven wool rugs in off-white, oatmeal, or pale stone to echo the sandy tones in the foreground.
• Keep wall decor minimal on adjacent walls, allowing the broad landscape format of the mural to command the room's visual focus.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is grounded in soft smoke grays, misty neutrals, pale sandy beige, and a subtle line of deep teal along the distant horizon. For adjacent painted surfaces and baseboards, we recommend soft warm whites, chalky greiges, or pale pebble grays that pick up on the lighter cloud tones. If you prefer a richer contrast, deeper charcoal or slate gray on surrounding trim or cabinetry can draw out the darker storm clouds near the center of the painting.
