Wallpaper - Two Whales

Our Two Whales wallpaper, created by artist Yvette St. Amant, brings a serene marine theme to life through clean Scandinavian simplicity. Two stylized whales drift across a crisp white ground, rendered in a refined palette of navy, mid-blue, and soft sky tones. The upper whale features an intricate mosaic-like pattern of geometric segments with a delicate watercolor-like texture, while the lower whale balances the composition with softer, rounded internal shapes and fine contour line work. The open, airy arrangement gives the artwork a fresh, modern feel that works beautifully on feature walls. Like all our wallpapers, this design is custom made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

We love how this design brings a calm, balanced visual presence without overwhelming the room. Because the two whales are placed against an uncluttered white background, the mural wallpapers give smaller spaces, such as nurseries, children's bedrooms, or a quiet study, a sense of open visual breathing room.

In a toddler room or playroom, we would position the motif along an uninterrupted main wall where the full silhouettes remain clearly visible above lower storage or low-profile beds. For a guest bedroom or contemporary bathroom, the clean marine theme works especially well as a focal feature wall behind a basin mirror or bed frame, allowing the soft blue tones to set a peaceful, orderly tone.

Styling it

The minimalist line work and Scandinavian character of this design make it easy to pair with clean, contemporary furniture. We suggest keeping surrounding shapes simple and uncluttered to let the graphic shapes of the whales stand out.

Natural blonde woods, such as light ash or birch, bring warmth to the clean white backdrop without competing with the illustration. For bedding, curtains, and cushions, opt for soft woven cottons or casual linens in plain ecru, chalk, or faded denim blue to complement the watercolor-inspired textures.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design centres on deep navy, ocean blue, and soft sky tones set against an off-white background. To build a cohesive room around it, we recommend drawing directly from these verified shades:

Pair the wallpaper with surrounding walls in crisp chalk white or soft mist grey to preserve the light, spacious feeling. For cabinetry, baseboards, or a statement piece of painted furniture, a rich navy or muted slate blue grounds the room and echoes the darker tones in the whale silhouettes.
