Wallpaper - Maritime Plates Red

Our Maritime Plates Red wallpaper, designed by Daphne Brissonnet, brings a vibrant coastal rhythm to the wall through circular decorative plate medallions set against a warm coral-red background. Each round medallion features painted details inspired by handcrafted ceramic mosaics, marine motifs like scallops and starfish, nautical rope borders, and layered concentric patterns in vivid cobalt, sky blue, turquoise, and crisp white. The repeat creates an energetic, graphic arrangement of decorative plates with a relaxed, painterly watercolor look. Made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this design brings warmth, color, and character into residential interiors.

In the room

We see this design working beautifully in spaces that welcome playful color and pattern. In a bathroom or powder room, the marine plate motifs and vivid blue tones bring a fresh coastal mood that enlivens smaller wall areas. It also sits naturally in a vacation home, dining nook, or casual living space where you want the walls to feel sunny and engaging. Because the circular pattern is relatively dense and high in contrast, we like using it on a feature wall or across a dedicated area where the individual plate illustrations have room to be appreciated up close without competing with too many tall pieces of furniture.

Styling it

To balance the lively pattern and rich coral background, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with relatively clean-lined furniture and simple decor. Natural, light-toned woods such as bleached oak or pale pine harmonize with the coastal theme, while crisp white painted woodwork helps frame the medallions cleanly. Brass or brushed gold accents provide a warm complement to the coral backdrop and navy tile accents. Keeping surrounding upholstery and textiles relatively quiet in solid neutrals or subtle textures allows the graphic plate motifs to remain the focal point of the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built around a warm coral-red base paired with rich ocean blues, including cobalt, marine blue, and pale turquoise, balanced by soft rope tones, coral accents, and bright white backgrounds. For surrounding walls and trim, fresh off-white or soft warm cream provides a clean, bright contrast that mirrors the centers of the ceramic plates. If you prefer a richer palette, deep navy blue on cabinetry or doors creates a striking, cohesive echo of the dark blue mosaic borders, while muted sandy beige or natural terracotta can tie in subtly with the warm base.
