Wallpaper - Three Whales

Our Three Whales wallpaper, designed by Yvette St. Amant, brings a fluid marine motif to life against a clean white backdrop. Three stylized whales drift across the space, each rendered in distinct shades of blue and deep navy with expressive, brushstroke-like patterning across their bodies. Delicate linework along the fins and tails adds fine graphic detail and a gentle sense of horizontal movement. The generous negative space around each figure gives the composition an airy, uncluttered feel, making it an inviting focal point without overwhelming the room. Like all of our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We love how the open spacing of this design adapts across different residential spaces. In a nursery, toddler room, or playroom, the friendly whale figures introduce an imaginative aquatic theme while keeping the overall look light and calm. Because the motif relies on clear silhouettes against an open white ground, it works beautifully across a wider feature wall behind a crib or low play table where the full swim path remains visible.

This design also transitions effortlessly into shared family spaces. We can easily see it in a guest bathroom, powder room, or a casual lake house living area where you want a refreshing coastal note. In a bedroom or dedicated reading corner, placing the mural on a main uninterrupted wall allows the subtle variations in the blue brushwork to stand out without competing with nearby storage or shelving.

Styling it

The clean lines and watercolor-like textures make this mural a natural match for Scandinavian and modern coastal interiors. To complement the cool blue tones and white backdrop, we recommend introducing warm, natural materials that keep the room feeling grounded and cozy.

Lighter wood tones, such as natural ash, birch, or pale oak, work especially well alongside the marine palette. For furniture and decor, simple silhouettes with soft curves echo the rounded shapes of the whales. Soft textiles in washed cotton, chunky knits, or plain canvas in off-white, oat, or subtle denim tones help build a comfortable, layered setting without introducing distracting new patterns.

Color combinations

The primary palette within the wallpaper centers on crisp white, rich navy, and softer coastal blues. When planning surrounding wall colors and accents, we suggest keeping adjacent surfaces relatively light and fresh.

A clean warm white or very soft off-white on adjoining walls and ceiling trim creates a seamless transition that extends the brightness of the mural background. If you want to introduce contrasting painted elements on baseboards, shelving, or an accent vanity, a deep navy drawn directly from the darkest whale creates a grounded, tailored frame. For smaller accents, muted sandy neutrals, soft driftwood grays, or subtle sea-glass greens harmonize naturally with the aquatic theme.
