Wallpaper - Racer II

Our Racer II wallpaper brings a classic maritime atmosphere to the wall through a detailed, oil-painted representation of a vintage sailboat model. Created by David Carter Brown, the artwork highlights the boat's warm brown and yellow hull, distinct red keel, and pale sails with fine rigging lines, set against a light wood-grained backdrop complete with subtle knots and grain character. The earthy sienna tones and painterly finish give the composition a grounded, traditional New England feel. Produced custom made to your dimensions, our wallpaper is PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure that complements the painted motif.

In the room

In a living room, this mural wallpaper works especially well as a focal wall behind a main seating area or above low shelving, where the complete profile of the sailboat remains unobstructed. The horizontal expanse of the wooden backdrop gives the design visual breadth, making it a natural choice for wider feature walls in lake houses, vacation lodges, or primary living spaces. Because the central motif carries strong narrative detail, we recommend giving the wallpaper a dedicated wall surface rather than wrapping it around multiple complex corners, allowing the full composition of the boat and rigging to anchor the space.

Styling it

The warm, earthy palette of this design makes it straightforward to integrate into coastal, traditional, or rustic interiors:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm timber furniture such as honey-toned pine, aged oak, or mid-tone walnut to echo the natural wood grain in the background.
• Keep surrounding upholstery and soft furnishings in neutral textured fabrics like coarse linen, cotton canvas, or nubuck leather in oat, warm sand, or deep navy.
• Incorporate muted antique brass or blackened iron lighting and hardware to complement the maritime character of the vessel without competing with the detailed rigging.

Color combinations

The wallpaper features a core palette of sienna brown, ochre yellow, muted beige, and deep accent red. For adjacent painted walls and architectural trim, creamy off-whites, warm stone, or pale biscuit tones create a soft and cohesive transition that lets the wall murals hold the main contrast. If you want to introduce a richer contrast elsewhere in the room, deep navy blue, forest green, or muted terracotta draw naturally on the traditional nautical palette and balance the lighter wooden tones of the mural.
