Wallpaper - Long Boards III

Our Long Boards III wallpaper, created by Deborah Revell, captures a quiet coastal scene with surfboards standing upright in the sand against a calm, pale ocean and mist-toned sky. What we particularly like about this mural wallpaper is the balance between the open, atmospheric background and the distinct vertical shapes in the foreground, including boards in weathered white, bold black and ochre, and bright blue. The wide composition gives the design an expansive feel that brings depth and an uncluttered visual rhythm to an interior. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well on an uninterrupted wall in a living room, bedroom, dining area, or home office where the horizon line can stretch naturally across the space. Because the upper half of the motif consists of soft, pale sky and sea, it introduces a sense of openness without visually crowding the room. In a bedroom, placing this design behind a low headboard allows the vertical boards to emerge naturally above the bed while keeping the overall atmosphere relaxed and airy. In a hallway or entryway, it offers a distinctive visual focal point that draws the eye inward immediately upon entering.

Styling it

When styling around this design, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean-lined to complement the open horizon and graphic vertical silhouettes. Low-profile seating or minimalist timber credenzas work nicely along the base of the wall, ensuring the boards remain clearly visible. Natural woven textures such as jute rugs or lightweight linen drapes echo the sandy shore without competing with the composition. For accents, a touch of matte black metalwork or warm oak furniture anchors the deeper tones seen in the central boards.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres around soft sandy beige in the foreground, mist grey and pale seafoam in the distance, and deliberate accents of cobalt blue, black, ochre, and weathered off-white on the boards themselves. For adjoining painted walls and trim, warm off-whites, pale stone, or soft sandy greiges create a continuous and serene transition. If you want to introduce subtle contrast, muted slate blue, deep navy, or charcoal accents in upholstery and cushions draw out the darker and more saturated details in the surfboards.
