Wallpaper - Santa Barbara Sunset II

Our Santa Barbara Sunset II wallpaper captures a coastal horizon where tall, slender palm trees stand in crisp silhouette against an expressive dusk sky. Created by Tono Balaguer, the photographic composition centers on the graphic rhythm of the palm fronds against a vivid gradient that transitions from a deep, glowing orange at the base to bright aquamarine and soft evening blue above. The contrast between the dark foliage and the saturated sky creates an expansive sense of depth across the wall. Printed as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, our design brings a striking tropical landscape into the home.

In the room

In a living room, we see this design working particularly well on an open, main wall where the full height of the palm trunks and the smooth color transition have space to unfold without visual interruption. Placing the wallpaper behind a lower sofa or credenza allows the tall silhouettes and the glowing gradient to remain clearly visible, giving the entire space an airy, horizontal feel.

In a guest room or a vacation home bedroom, our wallpaper creates an inviting, scenic focal point behind the bed. Because the upper section of the sky shifts into cooler aquamarine and blue tones, the design provides visual interest at eye level while keeping the upper wall calm. For spaces with generous natural daylight, the transition between the warm orange horizon and the cooler sky tones reads with crisp, vibrant clarity throughout the day, while softer evening lighting brings out the rich warmth along the lower tree line.

Styling it

Because our wall murals feature strong visual contrast and saturated sky tones, we prefer keeping surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Low-profile seating and clean horizontal silhouettes balance the height of the palm trees nicely, preventing the room from feeling crowded.

• Anchor the room with warm, natural wood finishes like teak or light oak to echo the warmth of the lower orange glow.
• Incorporate matte black accents or dark architectural hardware that quietly tie back to the crisp silhouette of the palm leaves.
• Keep larger upholstery in soft off-white, sandy neutrals, or muted linen to let the vivid sunset colors serve as the primary focus of the interior.

Color combinations

Our wallpaper pairs a deep sunset orange at the base with vibrant aquamarine, sky blue, and dense, dark silhouette tones in the foliage. When planning surrounding wall colors and major room elements, you can work with either the warm or the cool side of the palette.

To create a balanced and grounded interior, pair our mural wallpapers with warm sandy tones, muted terracotta accents, or soft creamy whites on adjacent walls and trim. If you want to emphasize the cool, refreshing character of the upper sky, subtle ocean blues, muted seafoam, or crisp pale grays on cabinetry and textiles will extend the serene coastal mood into the wider room.
