Wallpaper - Nantucket II

Captured by Aledanda, Nantucket II is a photographic wall mural that captures the quiet stillness of an open coastline through long exposure. The composition divides naturally across three wide horizontal bands: an overcast, soft gray sky, a smooth expanse of sea green water, and a sweeping curve of sandy neutral shore. The gentle blur of moving water softens the shoreline into a delicate gradient, lending the image a serene, painterly balance without losing its photographic clarity. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, bringing an expansive, grounded horizon into the home.

In the room

Because Nantucket II relies on a continuous horizontal perspective, we recommend giving it an uninterrupted wall where the full sweep of the coast can stretch out. In a bedroom, placing this wall mural behind the bed creates a calm, grounding backdrop that anchors the entire space. The wide ratio of sky to water also works wonderfully in a dedicated meditation room or quiet sitting area, where the minimalist composition helps establish an open, uncluttered atmosphere. While the design works well across a larger feature wall, the simplicity of its color blocking allows lower furniture pieces, such as low-profile platform beds or credenzas, to sit in front of it without disrupting the visual weight of the horizon.

Styling it

When styling around this mural wallpaper, we prefer an organic, understated approach influenced by contemporary and wabi-sabi principles. Keeping shapes low and lines clean lets the vastness of the shoreline remain the room's main focal point.

Unfinished or light warm woods pair naturally with the sandy tones in the foreground, grounding the image in honest, tactile materials. For seating and bedding, we suggest washed, unbleached linens or matte textiles in oatmeal and pale ecru to echo the quiet texture of the beach. To complement the cool sea green water, you might introduce a single low ceramic vessel with simple branches, avoiding busy arrangements or high-gloss surfaces that would compete with the soft exposure of the photograph.

Color combinations

The core palette of Nantucket II brings together soft sea green, muted sandy beige, and cloudy, atmospheric grays. When selecting paint for adjoining walls and woodwork, warm off-whites, pale limestone, and gentle chalky neutrals provide a seamless transition that extends the soft light of the sky throughout the room. If you want to draw out the water's cool tones, surrounding accents in muted sage or dusty celadon work quietly alongside the main landscape without overpowering its minimalist mood.
