Wallpaper - Ocean Rainbow

Our Ocean Rainbow wallpaper by Carrie Cantwell pairs graphic geometry with a relaxed, retro character. Concentric arches in pale peach, soft pink, burnt orange, and rich brick red rise above a deep teal base that anchors the composition like a stylized horizon. The motif carries the visual feel of painted brushstrokes, softening the clean lines and giving the abstract landscape a warm, expressive presence. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the arched composition creates a distinct horizontal division, we find this mural wallpaper works especially well on an uninterrupted accent wall where the full curve can unfold without being cut off by tall furniture. In a living room, placing it behind a low sofa lets the teal ground ground the seating area while the warm arches draw the eye upward. In a bedroom, it serves naturally behind a low headboard or platform bed, acting as an organic focal point. The balance of warm earthy tones and grounding teal also translates well into a home office, nursery, or creative playroom where you want visual character without visual clutter.

Styling it

We would take cues from the 1970s revival aesthetic of the artwork by pairing it with warm-toned woods like teak or walnut alongside low-slung, rounded furniture profiles.

To keep the focus on the graphic arches, consider keeping surrounding textiles and decorative accents simple:

• Bring in low-profile seating or shelving in warm wood or muted upholstery to avoid cutting across the central arch.
• Choose natural woven textures, like a jute or flatweave wool rug, to echo the organic, earthy feel of the warm palette.
• Accent with matte ceramic accessories or simple lighting fixtures in dark finishes or muted terracotta tones that pick up the brick red and peach in the print.

Color combinations

The design is built around a palette of terracotta, pale peach, blush pink, and brick red balanced by a grounding deep teal along the bottom band. For surrounding walls, we like pairing this design with muted warm neutrals like soft sand, pale bisque, or warm off-white to let the red and orange tones glow. If you prefer a more enveloping look, bringing a deep teal or muted petrol blue onto adjacent trim, doors, or cabinetry creates a cohesive, grounded connection with the base of the mural.
