Wallpaper - Zebra Face

Our Zebra Face wallpaper brings the striking intimacy of wildlife photography right into your interior. Captured by Sharon Vardy, the composition focuses closely on the zebra's expressive face, where fluid black and crisp cotton white stripes create a powerful graphic presence. The glossy brown eye catches the light with subtle reflection, giving the animal a calm, mysterious gaze that immediately draws attention. A softly blurred background keeps the focus entirely on the rich contrast and natural pattern of the fur. Like all our wall murals, this design is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making it straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because this is a large-scale portrait with strong visual direction, we like it best on a main accent wall where the full face can be seen without heavy visual competition. In a living room, it works wonderfully on the primary wall behind a sofa or across from the main seating area, acting as a bold photographic anchor. It also brings distinct character to a home study or art studio, providing an artistic focal point that feels both grounding and graphic. Because of the close crop and deep tonal contrast, the motif holds its presence easily in rooms with tall ceilings or wider wall surfaces.

Styling it

The graphic black and white palette of this design gives you plenty of flexibility when decorating. To balance the dramatic photography, we suggest:

• Pairing the wallpaper with warm wood furniture or leather seating to echo the earthy, brown tone of the zebra's eye and soften the monochrome contrast.
• Choosing furniture with clean, understated silhouettes so the expressive pattern of the stripes remains the hero of the space.
• Adding natural woven textures like jute, wool, or linen across rugs and soft furnishings to complement the organic wildlife theme without competing for visual attention.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by pure cotton white, deep black, and subtle warm brown in the eye and fur. Around the room, you can let the high contrast stand out by painting adjacent walls in soft off-whites, warm greys, or muted stone shades. If you prefer a richer and more intimate setting, deep charcoal, olive green, or warm terracotta on trim and neighbouring walls will highlight the earthy warmth captured in the photograph.
