Wallpaper - Orangulives

Photographed by Debra Van Swearingen, our Orangulives wallpaper mural centres on an orangutan resting in a quiet, thoughtful posture against a soft canopy of leaves and pale tree trunks. The warm saddle brown and russet tones of the coat stand out with striking visual clarity, balanced by muted natural greens and warm neutral highlights in the background. Subtle vintage-inspired vignetting softens the outer edges, giving the photography an intimate, timeless character. Printed to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a gentle surface structure, this design brings an earthy, contemplative presence to any interior.

In the room

Because the photographic subject holds a distinct position, we see this wall mural working especially well on an uninterrupted focal wall where the composition can be appreciated without heavy visual clutter. In a home study, library, or teenage room, positioning the mural behind a desk, low shelving, or a reading chair lets the orangutan remain fully visible while the soft foliage gently frames the upper space. The balanced earthy palette ensures the wall feels grounding rather than overpowering, working comfortably across both compact rooms and larger living spaces.

Styling it

To complement the rich russet and brown tones of the photograph, we suggest pairing this design with furniture that shares its organic warmth. Natural woods such as warm teak, mid-tone oak, or walnut echo the earthy character of the mural without competing for attention. Keep surrounding textiles tactile and understated, favouring neutral fabrics, woven textures, or muted olive upholstery that blend effortlessly with the canopy background.

Colour combinations

The core palette of our wallpaper is built around warm saddle brown, deep russet, soft leaf greens, and light sand tones. For surrounding painted walls and woodwork, we like using warm off-whites, creamy beige, or subtle moss greens to draw out the natural shades of the outdoor setting. If you want a more grounded look, a deep warm umber or muted olive on adjoining walls creates an enveloping, cohesive environment.
