Wallpaper - Funky Safari Mural

Our Funky Safari mural brings a playful, imaginative energy to the wall with an illustrated gathering of friendly cartoon animals. Lions, giraffes, zebras, elephants, hippos, cheetahs, and crocodiles mingle among green leafy trees and palms across a soft cream backdrop. Unexpected shades, such as pink zebras and blue elephants, give the pattern an upbeat, whimsical character that feels modern and lighthearted. The evenly spaced composition keeps the overall repeat balanced across wider surfaces. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a nursery, toddler room, or children's playroom where the artwork can set a bright, storytelling mood. Because the illustrated elements are distributed evenly across the cream background, the pattern remains airy and open rather than visually heavy. In a compact nursery, we would use it across a primary feature wall behind a cot or changing unit to anchor the space without making the room feel crowded. In a larger playroom, the repeat can easily run across multiple walls, giving children plenty of delightful illustrated details to discover as they move around the room.

Styling it

To let the playful character of the wallpaper lead the room, we suggest keeping the larger furniture pieces simple in form and relatively quiet in tone. Natural, lighter wood furniture or clean painted finishes in off-white work nicely alongside the cream base of the pattern, allowing the colourful animals to provide the visual focus. When introducing textiles such as bedding, floor rugs, or simple window curtains, choose solid tones or quiet, unpatterned textures rather than competing prints, so the illustrated safari remains the main focal point of the interior.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a gentle cream base with pops of bright blue, pink, green, and warm animal tones. When selecting surrounding wall paint or joinery colours, warm whites and soft vanilla creams will echo the wallpaper's background and create a continuous, unified feel throughout the room. If you want to introduce a subtle accent colour on a painted wardrobe, skirting board, or window frame, pulling a muted sage green or a powdery soft blue directly from the trees and elephants keeps the palette cohesive while adding gentle depth.
