Wallpaper - Iceberg Ahead

Our Iceberg Ahead wallpaper captures the quiet grandeur of an Arctic landscape, photographed by Jan Becke. A massive, sculpted iceberg rises from dark, rippling waters, showing off carved facets of pale white and deep aquamarine blue against a brooding gray sky and distant snow-covered peaks. What we love about this photograph is the interplay between the crisp geometry of the ice and the soft, atmospheric horizon. Produced made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it creates an expansive, contemplative focal point on any wall.

In the room

Because this photographic wall mural has an impressive sense of scale and depth, we see it working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizon line can extend without disruption. In a home study or quiet reading room, placing the design behind a desk or low credenza gives the space an expansive, calm atmosphere that opens up the room visually.

The composition also suits a dedicated meditation space or a tranquil bedroom setting, where the cool water and soft sky can set a quiet tone. In rooms with cooler northern light, the aquamarine and slate tones feel crisp and architectural, while warm southern daylight or soft, layered lamps in the evening bring out the subtle variations in the dark water.

Styling it

To balance the cool, quiet mood of the photograph, we suggest introducing materials with natural warmth and grounded textures.

• Warm wood furniture, such as natural oak or deeper walnut, provides an inviting contrast to the icy blues and dark waters.
• Low-profile seating and streamlined shelving keep the visual focus on the horizon and let the landscape retain its natural sense of scale.
• Textured, tactile textiles like raw linen, unbleached wool throws, or ribbed cotton add physical depth to the room without introducing competing visual patterns.

Color combinations

The primary palette within our wallpaper is built around glacial whites, muted aquamarine blue, slate gray, and deep navy tones in the water.

When choosing colors for adjoining walls, trim, or larger decor, we recommend working with soft, neutral tones like muted chalk white, cool pebble gray, or deep charcoal to echo the atmospheric sky and water. If you want to introduce a touch of warmth into the surrounding room, muted earthy accents like warm taupe or soft sand will balance the cool blue tones without overpowering them.
