Sail Away Sky Blue

Sail Away Sky Blue presents a lively coastal scene in a cool, pale blue palette. Painted sailboats, tiny red-roofed buildings and loose white brushstrokes give the surface the feel of a breezy harbour viewed through bright light.

About this wallpaper

The design places sailing boats, distant shore buildings and small touches of red, green and navy across a softly washed sky-blue ground. Broad white and icy-blue brushstrokes break up the background, giving the wallpaper a lightly textured, hand-painted appearance even though the imagery is printed. It has a usable width of 68.6 cm, a 61 cm vertical pattern repeat and a standard roll length of 10.05 m. With a listed weight of 147 gsm, it offers a practical paper suitable for creating a continuous nautical backdrop.

How to use it

Use this cool sky-blue colourway in a bedroom, coastal sitting room or garden room with white-painted joinery and pale timber. Pick out the small red and green boat details in cushions or artwork rather than introducing a stronger overall accent.

A light, painterly sailing scene that brings a cool coastal feel to bedrooms, studies and relaxed living spaces.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Sail Away Sky Blue without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
