Displaying Gray Malin prints in my home has been on my dream list for years. This week I’m excited to share four new pieces of his stunning artwork, all beautifully framed and placed around our home.
I was also featured on Gray Malin’s blog with a short interview and a mini home tour.
With these new prints up, a home tour felt fitting. I include a link to my feature on Gray Malin’s blog at the end of this post, and I’ve rounded up additional artwork with a similar vibe toward the end of the tour. Enjoy!

The Living Room Print
In the living room we chose a playful, slightly nostalgic print. It hangs where our family passes by every day, so it will be seen and appreciated countless times over the years.
Art: Beverly Hills Hotel Series
This print was the hardest to choose. I wanted something fun and light—perhaps travel-inspired, but not too beachy and without people. It also needed to remain fairly neutral so it would stand the test of time.
We landed on a gem from the Beverly Hills Hotel Series. I adore the vintage mint-green suitcases and the cheerful retro mood.

Choosing prints was tough—I went back and forth and worried about missing out on other favorites. Do you choose art from a place you’ve visited or from a destination on your bucket list? Both approaches feel right in different ways.
The Gray Malin Print For Our Bedroom
No, that’s not art—that’s our Frame TV.

I love this scene of blue-striped umbrellas in Nice, and we had it shown on our TV as art. For a staged photo I even took the TV down to showcase a blue linen dresser together with the prints—those colors pair perfectly.

We eventually moved the print to the playroom because I missed having the TV in the bedroom. In the playroom it sits within a colorful gallery wall and looks fabulous alongside other lively pieces.

I love the elegantly dressed vintage women in that photo—ready to head out on the town. It feels nostalgic in a cheerful way, and the lighthearted mood suits a playroom perfectly.
Gray Malin’s prints are instantly recognizable and evoke positive energy. His photography often highlights beautiful far-off destinations, but he also captures nostalgic, whimsical scenes that feel optimistic and upbeat.
Artwork In The Office
I’ve been experimenting with the design in our office. The room is still a work in progress, but we placed a standout Gray Malin print on the back wall.
We chose La Fontelina Loungers from the Capri series for this space. It’s such a happy image—those blue umbrellas are striking against the navy grasscloth wallpaper and make the piece feel like a focal point.

Gray Malin In My Boy’s Room
Above my son’s bed we hung an iconic Gray Malin aerial beach shot, Surfside, Nantucket. Choosing from so many beautiful beach photos was a fun challenge.
This beach is one our family has visited recently, so the kids remember the trip. The print brings back special memories and felt perfect for my eldest son’s room. I love the colors and how the tiny people and umbrellas look like graphic patterns from above.

If you love the Gray Malin look but want more budget-friendly options, here are seven prints that capture that same joyful beachy or travel-inspired feeling.
Minted also offers a great selection of beach photography with muted, sophisticated hues—it’s worth browsing for similar styles.
1. A large aerial beach print from Target that delivers the Gray Malin vibe at an affordable price.
2. A piece called “The Sunday Blues” with lovely coastal tones.
3. “If You Wanna Go + Take A Ride With Me” — a playful option that works well in kids’ rooms.
4. A downloadable beach umbrella print reminiscent of Gray Malin’s striped umbrella series; digital downloads let you print in any size you need.
5. “Tower 2,” a subtly colored artwork that looks great in a warm wood frame.
6. A pair of aerial beach images that work beautifully side-by-side—also available as digital downloads.
7. A Swimming Pool wall print from Anthropologie with a lovely wood frame and timeless appeal.
