Wallpaper - Zebra Splash

Our Zebra Splash wallpaper, created in collaboration with Kellie Day, brings an expressive, mixed-media animal portrait into full scale. Set against a bold cobalt blue backdrop, the zebra profile features dynamic brushstrokes, splattered ink marks, and layered collage-style textures with accents of purple, warm orange, lime green, and pink. The composition carries a distinct artistic energy with painterly sweeps across the coat and mane, creating a striking focal point on a large wall. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the motif centers on a single expressive subject against an expansive painted field, we recommend giving this design a broad, uninterrupted wall where the full figure and wide blue background can spread out naturally. It works particularly well in a creative home office, an art studio, or a vibrant teenage bedroom. In rooms with clean, open sightlines, the bold scale of the zebra draws immediate attention without feeling cluttered, as the saturated blue background provides a grounding visual anchor around the detailed artwork.

Styling it

With an expressive and eclectic design like this, we prefer letting the wall carry the primary visual interest. Pairing it with furniture that has clean, contemporary silhouettes keeps the space feeling balanced rather than busy. Neutral upholstery or sleek painted furniture in soft off-white, light grey, or matte black grounds the composition, while a few deliberate decor accents in warm mustard, orange, or lime can pick up the playful collage details in the motif.

Colour combinations

The palette is built around a vivid cobalt blue foundation, contrasted by the zebra’s cream, black, and charcoal stripes alongside pops of violet, warm orange, lime, and magenta. For adjacent walls and trim, we like pairing this design with crisp whites, cool soft greys, or even a deep navy to extend the richness of the blue background. If you prefer a warmer balance, muted terracotta or ochre accents in surrounding textiles complement the warm tones tucked into the zebra's coat.
