The Story Behind Nautical Chart Wallpaper: Charting a Course for Unique Decor

Are you inspired by coastal living and seeking more personal, meaningful wall art? Picture your space transformed—where maps and charts become conversation pieces and each wall highlights adventures, milestones, and places you cherish.

For more than 20 years, Nautical Chart Wallpaper has been the trusted source for custom nautical wall murals and coastal map art. We turn official NOAA navigation charts and vintage maritime maps into exclusive, made-to-order wall coverings for your home, office, yacht, or business. Whether reimagining a beach house, creating a statement piece in a restaurant, or curating a memorable hotel lobby, our studio brings your vision to life with genuine artistry.

From Boating Adventures to Bespoke Map Murals

Founded by lifelong sailor “Skipper” Steve Morris, our passion for navigation and storytelling is at the heart of every project. Skipper realized that nautical charts are more than navigational tools—they’re vessels to capture memories, spark conversations, and celebrate coastal heritage.

Our family-owned studio builds on his legacy, blending artisanal design and advanced print technology. The result? Breathtaking custom map and chart art for any style, space, or scale.
