Icelandic Landscape Wallpaper, Wide and Stark
Iceland wallpaper is a wall covering that puts the island's black beaches, waterfalls, glaciers and northern lights on your wall. The land is stark and wide. That makes it a natural fit for a big mural.
Giffywalls prints every mural to the exact size of your wall. We print these Iceland scenes most for offices and bedrooms. Buyers tell us the same thing each time. A wide view makes a small room feel bigger, not smaller.
The Four Looks in This Range
Most designs fall into four groups. Black sand beaches read graphic and calm. Waterfalls bring movement and a rush of white. Glaciers and ice caves glow pale blue. Northern lights wallpaper turns the whole wall green and violet. Each one sets a very different mood. Pick the mood first, then pick the room.
Where an Iceland Wall Works Best
Home Offices
A wide landscape behind a desk gives your eye somewhere to go. It also reads well on a video call. Misty gray scenes are the calm pick. A waterfall gives the room more energy. Keep the desk clear so the view is not blocked.
Living Rooms
Behind the sofa is the spot. A long view suits a long wall, so the two work together. Add wood, wool and one warm lamp. The room then feels like a cabin rather than a gallery. Our landscape wallpaper range shows the same idea from other parts of the world.
Bedrooms
Go quiet here. A gray beach or a soft glacier scene keeps the room restful. Save the bright green sky for a room you use in the evening. A dark mural behind the bed can make sleep easier, since there is less contrast to catch the eye.
Kids' Rooms and Play Spaces
A volcano, an ice cave or a green sky beats a cartoon print in a kid's room. There is something real to look at. It also grows up well, since the same wall still works at twelve as it did at four. Keep the rest of the room simple and let the scene lead.
Color and Light
Most of these murals are cool by nature. Black, gray, white and pale blue do the work. That can chill a north-facing room, so add warmth back with oak, leather, wool and brass. In a sunny room the cool tones are a gift. They keep the space from feeling hot. If you want more color, take the northern lights or a moss-green summer scene. One more thing worth knowing: a dark mural makes a small room feel deeper, not tighter. The wall reads as distance rather than as a surface.
Scale and Where to Stop
These murals work best big. A wide view cut down to a small panel loses its power. One full wall is the right call. Got a wall broken up by doors and shelves? Pick a simple scene with a clear sky, since it still reads when only parts of it show. Try to keep the horizon near eye level. Our mountain wallpaper range follows the same rule.
Styles You Will Find Here
You will find sharp photo murals, soft misty scenes, black and white shots and painted takes. Some show one rock or one falls. Some show a whole valley. If you like the travel theme, our travel wallpaper range covers more of the world.
Sizing, Finish and Fitting
Send us the width and the height of your wall. We scale the artwork to match, so the horizon lands where you want it. Choose peel and stick if you rent, part of our removable wallpaper range. It lifts off and leaves the paint as it was. Paste the wall suits a room that is staying put. Panels arrive numbered and shipping is free.

FAQs
Which materials is best for wallpaper?
Wallpapers are made from standard paper, canvas paper, premium paper, peel and stick materials for durability and style.
How Do I Measure My Wall for a Wall Mural?
Measure the wall's width and height, adding 2–4 inches for trimming. Check for obstacles like windows or doors and note their dimensions. Double-check measurements before ordering!
How Do I Order Custom Size Wallpaper or Wall Mural?
Pick a design, enter wall dimensions, choose material, and place your order. Contact support for help!
What height should the horizon line be in a landscape mural?
Roughly at eye level when seated is the most convincing placement in a living room. That single detail does more for realism than anything else. Too high and the image reads as a picture on the wall rather than a view through it.
Do Iceland murals work in small or dark rooms?
They are particularly good in them. A wide vista adds visual depth, which pushes the far wall away in a narrow room, and in a basement or windowless office a landscape is one of the few changes that genuinely alters how enclosed a space feels.
What colors and materials pair with an Icelandic scene?
The palette is already a scheme: charcoal, slate, moss, glacial blue and bone white. Warm materials keep it from feeling clinical, so use pale oak, wool, sheepskin, leather and matte black metal. Avoid glossy finishes and bright accents.
Which Iceland design suits a bedroom?
Aurora scenes are the natural pick. A green and violet sky over a dark ridgeline reads as a night sky and supports sleep rather than stimulating the room. Pair it with wool and sheepskin so the space feels sheltered rather than cold.
Is the mural printed as one continuous image?
Yes. Enter your wall width and height and we print the scene scaled to fit as a single image, so there is no repeat, no tiling and no seam running through the middle of a waterfall or a ridgeline.
