Wallpaper - Iceland From Above III

Our Iceland From Above III wallpaper captures the dramatic meeting of ocean and shoreline from an overhead aerial perspective. Created in collaboration with Max Blakesberg Studios, this photographic design showcases deep blue and sea green ocean waters shifting into crisp white surf along sweeping curves of dark volcanic sand. The bird's-eye view transforms the natural coastal landscape into an almost abstract composition of fluid movement and rich earthy tones. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and is completely PVC-free.

In the room

Because the composition relies on broad, sweeping curves and open visual space, we think this design works particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted accent wall. In a living room, placing it behind a main sofa gives the full scale of the coastline room to unfold without feeling crowded. The photographic nature of the seascape also makes it a compelling choice for a dedicated meditation room or quiet lounge area, where the expansive water and peaceful aerial viewpoint can set a grounded, serene atmosphere.

To keep the balance right in larger open-plan spaces, we recommend using this wallpaper on a single feature wall rather than across the entire room. This allows the contrast between the dark sand and foamy sea green water to draw the eye naturally while letting the surrounding architecture breathe.

Styling it

The natural balance of deep oceanic shades and dark earth makes this design straightforward to integrate into modern, minimalist, or contemporary interiors. We suggest keeping nearby furniture low-profile with clean lines, ensuring the sweeping movement of the shoreline remains the visual anchor of the space.

Warm, natural wood finishes like ash or light oak provide an inviting organic counterpoint to the deep tones of the volcanic beach. For surrounding textiles and seating, look toward unpatterned upholstery in soft off-white, light gray, or subtle sand tones to echo the shoreline without introducing competing visual patterns.

Color combinations

The wallpaper's palette is grounded in rich sea greens, deep ocean blues, dark charcoal sand, and seafoam white.

When choosing colors for adjoining walls, trim, or large furniture, we recommend soft chalky neutrals, warm off-whites, or pale stone grays. These quieter shades let the dramatic tones of the coastline stand out cleanly. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, pulled-back sage greens or deep charcoal accents can beautifully draw out the darkest volcanic elements in the print.
