Wallpaper - Scribble Flow, Ocean

Our Scribble Flow, Ocean wallpaper brings together sweeping brushstrokes in slate blue, gray, and earthy brown across a pale gray backdrop, overlaid with expressive white scribbles. Designed by Irina Chikati, this abstract composition balances spontaneous movement with a grounded, neutral structure, giving walls a modern, artistic focal point without overwhelming the room. Like all of our wallpapers and wall murals, this design is custom made-to-measure to fit your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We love seeing this wallpaper on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full sweep of the brushwork and linework has room to breathe. In a living room, it works wonderfully behind a low-profile sofa, allowing the upper section of the abstract composition to draw the eye across the space. For a home office or creative studio, placing this mural wallpaper behind a desk creates an energetic, art-led backdrop that feels both thoughtful and dynamic. It also sits comfortably in a bedroom behind a headboard or along an open hallway where you can appreciate the layered details as you move through the house.

Styling it

To let the fluid movement of the design stand out, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined furniture and a mix of simple textures:

• Ground the space with medium to dark wood furniture, such as walnut or stained oak, which echoes the deeper brown brushstrokes in the motif.
• Introduce upholstery in textured off-white, oatmeal, or slate gray to complement the cool neutral backdrop without competing with the pattern.
• Choose matte black or brushed metal accents in light fixtures and hardware to provide a crisp, modern contrast to the organic brush marks.

Color combinations

The wallpaper itself features a refined palette of slate blue, soft gray, warm brown, and crisp white over a light gray base. When choosing surrounding wall colors or trim, we recommend pulling directly from these cool and earthy undertones. A chalky off-white or soft pale gray on adjacent walls keeps the room feeling airy and seamless. If you prefer a richer look, a deep slate blue or muted taupe on doors, baseboards, or built-in cabinetry provides a striking, deliberate frame for the design.
