Wallpaper - Tempest

Our Tempest wallpaper brings an expressive seascape to life through sweeping, painterly brushwork and an atmospheric horizon. Designed by Pamela Munger, the motif captures rolling storm clouds meeting turbulent water, balancing light and dark across the composition. Soft white, misty gray, and subtle touches of pale orange in the upper sky shift into deep steel blue and shadowed tones along the lower half, creating an organic sense of movement. Printed made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers a calm yet dynamic focal point for the home.

In the room

Because the composition divides naturally into an airy sky above and a grounded ocean palette below, we like this design on a wider, uninterrupted wall where the full sweep of the horizon can unfold. In a bedroom, placing it behind the headboard grounds the sleeping area with deep steel blue while keeping the upper wall feeling open and light. In a spacious living room, it works particularly well as a statement wall behind a low-profile sofa, allowing the textured strokes of the sky to remain visible across the entire space. For a dedicated meditation room, the fluid motion and cool color balance create a tranquil backdrop that feels both serene and visually engaging without demanding excessive ornamentation around it.

Styling it

We recommend letting the fluid, painted nature of the mural wallpaper set the mood, keeping surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Low-slung silhouettes in contemporary or organic modern shapes allow the horizon line to remain prominent. Warm, natural wood finishes such as bleached ash or light oak provide a gentle organic counterbalance to the cool steel blue and gray tones. When selecting textiles, smooth weaves in muted stone, off-white, or soft slate echo the colors within the artwork, keeping the room cohesive without competing against the expressive brushstrokes on the wall.

Color combinations

The design is built around steel blue, slate gray, and soft cloud whites, accented by subtle hints of pale orange in the upper atmosphere. To create a seamless transition around the room, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with adjacent walls painted in pale stone, cool gray, or a soft, neutral off-white that matches the lighter areas of the sky. For architectural trim, doors, or larger furniture pieces, a deeper charcoal or slate gray picks up on the shadowy base tones of the water, anchoring the entire space with balanced contrast.
