Whether your vibe is laid-back surf shack, nautical boutique, or something in between, these designs offer an easy way to create a statement. Scroll through for inspiration, styling tips, and real-room mockups that bring the coastal aesthetic to life.
Coastal Teen Bedroom with a Surf Vibe.
This softly styled bedroom captures the carefree spirit of coastal living, perfect for a teen room or guest space. The wave wallpaper brings texture and calm, while the navy bedding and surfboard nod to classic beach styling.
Styling tip: Add a wood-framed print, rattan storage baskets, and striped cushions for a relaxed but pulled-together look.
Soft + Serene Coastal Touches
Bringing in the coastal vibes can be as simple as setting the scene for breakfast in a light-filled room or unwinding with a spa-like soak at the end of the day. These softly styled spaces show how pattern and palette can create a sense of calm, without overpowering your room.
In the breakfast room, soft wave wallpaper adds movement and ease to everyday moments. It pairs beautifully with natural textures like jute placemats, linen curtains, and unglazed ceramics.
In the bathroom, the pebble pattern brings gentle rhythm and structure. Use it to elevate your daily routine and lean into that relaxed, seaside retreat feel. Just remember to use Traditional Commercial Grade wallpaper in humid areas for the best performance.
Coastal Wallpaper Ideas for Bedrooms
Whether you're styling a child's bedroom or curating a dreamy space for a young adult, these designs show how wallpaper can quietly lead the whole mood of the room.
The soft blue harlequin wallpaper sets the tone for a fresh and light-filled bedroom, channelling the ever-popular 'coastal granddaughter' vibe. Crisp white bedding, touches of gold, and a playful anchor cushion complete the look with ease.
The playful seaweed Wallpaper adds movement to a younger childs room. Paired with primary-toned accessories and sandy wood furniture, it brings in a nostalgic, nautical feel without being theme-heavy.
Styling tip: Add tactile bedding, personal keepsakes, and a mix of patterns to keep things from feeling flat or too styled.
Bold & Nautical Accents
Coastal doesn’t have to mean casual. These bolder, more structured prints show how wallpaper can add drama and polish to dining areas, hallways, or commercial spaces, including those with a Mediterranean twist.
The Greek key-style wallpaper makes a statement in this restaurant setting—its deep blue tones and clean geometry adding a refined nautical edge. Perfect for creating a brandable backdrop in cafés, boutique hotels, or Mediterranean-inspired event spaces.
In the hallway, a soft plaid in washed coastal tones brings structure and calm to transitional spaces. It's a great way to gently introduce pattern if you're not ready for bold prints. For homeowners, this kind of print can work wonders in narrow entryways or upstairs corridors, adding interest without making the space feel crowded.
Styling tip: Use clean-lined furniture, warm lighting, and minimal accessories to let strong patterns shine.
