Wallpaper - Exotic Wildlife V-II

In our Exotic Wildlife V-II wallpaper by Andrea Haase, historical cartography meets lush tropical botanicals. Detailed illustrations of broad foliage in rich slate blue and purple tones rise across an antique map backdrop featuring navigational lines, regional outlines, and a compass rose. Soft pink floral accents bring gentle warmth against the earthy background tones. The watercolour-inspired character gives the entire scene an artistic, layered appearance across the wall. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free mural wallpaper with a subtle structure in the paper, this design brings depth and visual intrigue to any room.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a dedicated home office, study, or home library where its cartographic details and botanical elements have room to be appreciated up close. Because the antique map background features intricate navigational lines and fine geographical contours, the wallpaper rewards walls that are not entirely concealed by tall bookcases or bulky furniture.

On a main wall behind a desk or a low reading chair, the larger slate blue and purple leaves frame the space while the lighter background keeps the room feeling open. In rooms with steady daylight, the balance between the earthy base tones and the cooler blue foliage creates a tranquil, grounded atmosphere that remains engaging throughout the day.

Styling it

To complement the heritage character of this mural wallpaper, we would look to warm, traditional materials that echo its earthy foundation:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm wood furniture, such as stained oak, walnut, or antique timber desks and shelving, which ground the cool slate blue botanicals.
• Choose understated upholstery and curtains in muted tones like taupe, warm stone, or deep slate to let the detailed map backdrop take centre stage.
• Introduce understated brass or antique bronze accents in desk lamps, cabinet hardware, or curtain rails to pick up on the navigational motif.

Colour combinations

The palette of this wallpaper centres on cool slate blues, dusty purples, and gentle pink floral highlights set against warm, earthy map tones. When planning your surrounding décor, you can lean in a few distinct directions.

Surrounding walls painted in warm parchment, muted beige, or gentle stone will harmonise with the antique map background, creating a cohesive and quiet transition. Alternatively, picking up the slate blue or deep charcoal tones from the foliage on adjacent woodwork, panelling, or shelving adds architectural definition and draws out the darker botanical details.
