Wallpaper - Fantasy Forest

Our Fantasy Forest wallpaper by Marina Draws captures an enchanting nocturnal woodland against a deep, dark brown background. Illustrated in a detailed storybook style with ink-like precision, the composition brings together leaping hares, agile foxes, wise owls, snails, moths, and a patterned serpent woven between wild ferns, mushrooms, delicate wildflowers, and glowing golden stars and crescent moons. The warm, earthy palette balances rich saddle brown and forest greens with pops of bright fly agaric red, warm ochre, and soft petal white. Made-to-measure and entirely PVC-free, this wallpaper paper features a subtle physical structure that adds depth to the illustrated elements across the wall.

In the room

We especially like this design for spaces where storytelling and imagination take centre stage. In a nursery, toddler room, or children's bedroom, the rich density of the repeat offers endless details to discover, from tiny woodland strawberries to the delicate markings on the moth wings.

Because the background is a saturated, grounding brown, the design works wonderfully across an accent wall behind a cot, bed, or reading nook. In a room with ample daylight or warm bedside lighting, the darker backdrop creates an intimate, enveloping atmosphere rather than feeling heavy. If you have lower ceilings or a slightly more compact room, keeping the wall relatively clear of tall wardrobes allows the leaping animals and rising flora to retain their full sense of motion.

Styling it

To complement the rich heritage feel of the illustration, we recommend balancing the wallpaper with warm, natural materials and quiet furnishings. Simple timber furniture in warm oak or pine mirrors the earthy undertones of the forest floor, while painted woodwork in off-white or muted moss keeps the overall look soft and grounded.

For bedding and soft furnishings, plain fabrics such as washed cotton or wool in solid tones allow the intricate pattern on the wall to remain the focal point without competing for attention. A warm brass bedside lamp or soft globe pendant enhances the celestial gold stars in the pattern, creating a cosy glow in the evenings.

Colour combinations

The pattern is grounded in a deep saddle brown base, enlivened by botanical greens, soft mushroom beige, bright fly agaric red, and warm golden yellow.

When choosing paint colours for surrounding walls, skirtings, or built-in joinery, we suggest looking to the softer tones within the design:

• Muted warm whites and parchment shades on neighbouring walls keep the room light while providing a clean contrast against the dark background.
• Soft sage or olive greens echo the delicate fern fronds and dandelion leaves, tying the room together in a gentle, nature-inspired palette.
• Warm ochre or clay accents on cushions, throws, or decorative details bring out the playful warmth of the leaping fox and golden celestial elements.
