Wallpaper - Folk Animals III

Designed by Omar Escalante, our Folk Animals III wallpaper presents a striking, folk-art-inspired rooster set against a rich burnt-orange backdrop. The central figure is detailed with stylized feathered patterning, framed by arching green vines, twin botanical blooms, a radiant yellow sun, and decorative geometric borders with a striped outer frame. What we particularly like about this design is the bold graphic rhythm and warm, earthy balance between the terracotta orange, sage greens, and deep charcoal black. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it brings vibrant character and folk warmth to the wall.

In the room

Because of its strong central motif and framing borders, we see this wall mural working especially well on a focused feature wall where the complete composition can be seen without heavy visual interruption. In a dining area, kitchen, or a welcoming entryway, the warm terracotta and sunny yellow tones create an inviting, energetic atmosphere. The defined square proportions of the artwork make it a natural fit above a low sideboard, behind a dining table, or as a statement focal point in a creative home workspace. If you have higher ceilings or a wider wall, positioning the design centrally gives the intricate folk motifs and border details room to breathe.

Styling it

We would balance the bold illustrative style and rich palette by pairing this wallpaper with warm, grounded interior elements. Natural mid-tone or dark woods, such as walnut, warm oak, or stained pine, harmonise beautifully with the earthy terracotta background. Keep surrounding furniture shapes relatively simple and clean-lined to allow the intricate pattern work and folk graphics to remain the centrepiece of the room. Matte black metal accents, iron hardware, or ceramic tabletop pieces will pick up on the deep charcoal details of the rooster and tie the entire space together naturally.

Colour combinations

The palette of our mural wallpapers is anchored by a vibrant burnt-orange field, accompanied by deep charcoal, pale cream, golden yellow, and muted sage green. For surrounding painted walls, soft neutral off-whites, warm creams, or gentle beige tones help reflect light while letting the wallpaper carry the primary colour in the room. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, pulling out the muted sage green or an earthy olive for woodwork, skirting boards, or adjoining walls creates a cohesive, nature-inspired palette.
