Wallpaper - Elephant Walk V

Created by Daphne Brissonnet, our Elephant Walk V wallpaper features a stately, caparisoned elephant walking in profile, framed by an ornamental floral border on a warm, patterned cream background. The painted-looking texture gives the central figure soft brushwork and subtle tonal shifts in pale grey and sage-tinged white, adorned with decorative textiles in ochre, terracotta, teal, and ruby. Delicate heritage-inspired damask patterns subtly line the background, adding depth without crowding the central composition. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, this design brings an artistic, storied presence to an interior.

In the room

Because the motif is framed and centered around the elephant, we see this working best as a dedicated focal point on a main feature wall rather than wrapped continuously around all four walls. In a living room or a study, placing our design behind a sofa, a low console, or an open seating area keeps the border and central subject clearly visible. The soft, neutral ground keeps the atmosphere calm, making it equally fitting for a peaceful bedroom or a quiet home office where you want character without high-contrast visual noise.

Styling it

We recommend letting the wallpaper serve as the decorative focal point and keeping the larger surrounding pieces grounded in natural finishes. Warm wood tones, such as antique pine, warm oak, or walnut, complement the heritage character and pick up the golden ochre notes in the border. For upholstery and textiles, soft woven fabrics in unbleached cotton, taupe, or deep rust echo the warmth of the elephant's saddle cloth without introducing competing patterns.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper combines an earthy palette of soft cream, stone grey, burnt terracotta, ochre gold, and muted teal. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or woodwork, a gentle warm white or creamy stone creates a seamless, tonal transition that lets the wallpaper blend naturally into the architecture. If you prefer more definition, pulling out the terracotta or rich camel tone for architectural trim, baseboards, or a statement piece of painted furniture gives the room a cohesive, deliberate feel.
