Wallpaper - Day At The Zoo

Created by Good Studio, our Day At The Zoo wallpaper brings together a cheerful collection of illustrated animals across a clean, bright white backdrop. Illustrated in a flat graphic style with soft pastel tones, the repeat features playful giraffes, polar bears, monkeys, seals, crocodiles, tigers, rabbits, cats, tortoises, and koalas scattered alongside small palm trees. The spacing feels light and balanced, giving each animal character room to stand out without overwhelming the wall. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, it provides an uplifting backdrop designed to be straightforward to hang.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a nursery, toddler room, children's bedroom, or a dedicated playroom. Because the motif is set against a crisp white ground with gentle spacing between the figures, it adapts easily to both compact rooms and larger spaces. In a nursery, we like placing it on an accent wall behind a cot or changing area, where the sweet character illustrations create an engaging visual focus. In a playroom or children's bedroom, the continuous repeating pattern can easily cover all four walls without feeling visually crowded, leaving plenty of room for everyday play. It also suits a family bathroom, bringing a lighthearted, playful spirit to the space.

Styling it

To let the charming animal illustrations take centre stage, we would keep the surrounding furniture simple and grounded. Natural, pale wood tones like ash, birch, or light pine complement the soft aesthetic nicely without competing with the pastel palette. For painted furniture, warm white, light biscuit, or soft dove grey pieces sit comfortably against the wall.

When selecting textiles, simple solid colours or subtle woven textures work best alongside this pattern. Choosing bedding, curtains, or cushions in gentle shades drawn directly from the wallpaper creates a cohesive look while keeping the overall room feeling airy and calm.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built on a clean white base paired with a soothing palette of soft pastels, including pale sky blue, dusty pink, muted mint, warm sandy peach, gentle grey, and accents of charcoal.

For adjacent walls, woodwork, or built-in storage, we recommend pairing the design with soft off-white, light warm grey, or a muted pastel blue to echo the cool tones in the animals. If you prefer a warmer feel, a gentle blush pink or warm oat tone works wonderfully to pick up on the tiger and seal illustrations.
