Wallpaper - Water Tower Ahead

Our Water Tower Ahead wallpaper, created by Jan Becke, captures a coastal horizon as the evening sun settles across rolling grassy dunes. A white tower stands as the primary architectural focal point against an expansive sunset sky, where soft, scattered clouds display warm apricot, orange, and gentle purple tones. The horizontal composition balances the earthy, grassy ground with the open atmospheric gradient above, creating a calm coastal landscape with a wide sense of depth. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an inviting, scenic backdrop that brings a peaceful outdoor atmosphere into interior spaces.

In the room

In a living room or a dedicated meditation space, we like using this design across a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizon line can stretch naturally. The low horizon and soft, open sky allow the wallpaper to add depth without making a room feel enclosed. Placing it behind a lower sofa or a low-profile credenza keeps the lighthouse and the gentle line of the dunes in full view, while the warm apricot sky above brings an open, airy character to higher wall areas. The scene also feels right at home in a vacation property, where its coastal landscape reinforces a quiet, unhurried setting.

Styling it

Because the coastal motif carries strong natural color and atmospheric depth, we prefer keeping surrounding furniture simple in form and grounded in natural finishes.

• Choose low-slung seating and credenzas in light or warm wood tones to echo the earthy, grassy colors along the base of the design without competing with the horizon line.
• Select upholstery and area rugs in quiet, undyed natural fibers like flat-weave wool or unbleached linen to maintain a relaxed, tactile feel in the room.
• Keep wall decor and hanging shelves on this wall to a minimum, allowing the open sky and architectural tower to serve as the singular visual focus.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built on a warm palette of apricot, soft orange, and subtle purple in the clouds, grounded by earthy green and sandy tones in the coastal dunes. For adjacent painted walls, soft warm off-whites, pale cream, or muted clay tones complement the sunset glow naturally. If you want to introduce deeper contrasts in furniture or textiles, muted olive, warm ochre, or soft charcoal can pick up the natural accents within the grassy landscape and the structure's roofline.
