Wallpaper - Santorini Strokes

Santorini Strokes brings the unmistakable coastal architecture of the Cyclades into your interior through expressive, painterly brushwork. Designed by Silvia Vassileva, our wallpaper captures whitewashed cliffside dwellings, domed towers, and classic blue cupolas overlooking an expansive sweep of open sea and sky. Broad, visible brush strokes give the composition an artistic, painted character, blending cobalt and sky blue with warm sandy ochres, soft stone grays, and bright chalky whites. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this mural wallpaper turns a full wall into an evocative architectural landscape with a tranquil, breezy presence.

In the room

Because the artwork features a scenic horizon with stacked coastal buildings rising toward the right, we see this wall mural working especially well on a wide, uninterrupted wall in a living room, vacation home, or dining space. Placing the design along a main feature wall lets the balance between the open blue seascape on the left and the architectural forms on the right unfold naturally across the space.

In an open living room or casual dining area, keeping taller furniture away from the right-hand cluster allows the domes and towers to remain clearly in view. The soft contrast between the pale buildings and the sea creates depth without feeling visually heavy, making our design comfortable across larger spaces where you want visual character without overwhelming surrounding decor.

Styling it

We would pair this painterly wallpaper with understated, organic modern furnishings that echo its Mediterranean coastal aesthetic. Low-profile seating in off-white, oat, or unbleached canvas complements the chalky tones in the architecture while keeping sightlines to the landscape clear.

Natural elements like light, honey-toned woods or whitewashed surfaces harmonize effortlessly with the warm ochre accents in the painting. To maintain the relaxed, breezy atmosphere, we suggest keeping surrounding accessories simple and sculptural, choosing matte ceramics and unadorned glass rather than high-contrast patterns that might compete with the expressive brushwork.

Color combinations

The color palette in our wallpaper centers on classic cobalt and sky blue set against chalk white, weathered stone, and touches of warm ochre. When selecting surrounding wall paint, trim colors, or large furnishings, consider these directions:

• Off-white, plaster, or warm stone tones for adjacent walls and trim, providing a soft, continuous background that mirrors the painted dwellings.
• Deep sea blue or soft slate accents in upholstery or cushions to tie back to the domed roofs and deep ocean expanse.
• Muted sandy beige or warm wheat tones across floors and larger textiles to pick up the gentle ochre highlights throughout the village architecture.
