Wallpaper - Cape Cod II

Our Cape Cod II wallpaper, created by Leslie Trimbach, captures the gentle stillness of a coastal landscape through delicate watercolor brushwork. The composition centers on a quiet expanse of water mirroring soft sky-blue tones and drifting white clouds along the horizon. Across the shoreline and foreground, subtle washes of muted green, earthy brown, and pale beige suggest coastal grasses and low vegetation. The open, fluid perspective brings an airy, tranquil character to the wall, while our made-to-measure, PVC-free wallpaper paper adds a subtle physical structure to the finished installation.

In the room

Because the motif features an expansive horizon and sweeping water reflections, we see this working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full landscape can unfold naturally. In a bedroom or a dedicated meditation room, placing the design behind a low headboard or along the main sightline keeps the view open without dividing the horizontal flow of the shoreline. In a coastal vacation home or a quiet living space, the gentle transitions between sky and water bring a sense of openness to the room, especially where generous daylight can highlight the subtle gradations in the blue and green washes.

Styling it

To complement the impressionistic character of the artwork, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Low-profile seating or bed frames with clean lines allow the shoreline and horizon to remain visible across the room. Natural, lightly finished wood tones like bleached ash or pale oak sit comfortably alongside the sandy beige and muted greenery in the foreground. For textiles, unpatterned, matte fabrics in off-white or soft oatmeal provide balanced visual weight without competing with the painterly strokes of the motif.

Color combinations

Our wallpaper combines soft sky blue, pale cloud white, muted foliage green, warm brown, and sandy beige. When choosing surrounding paint and accents, we suggest pulling directly from these quieter base tones. An adjacent wall in a gentle warm white or chalky off-white extends the airy quality of the sky into the rest of the room. If you prefer more definition, deep slate blue or earthy olive accents on trim or accent pieces pick up the darker brushstrokes along the water’s edge while maintaining a cohesive palette.
