Wallpaper - Those Odd Fellas

Created by Tanja Smedh, our Those Odd Fellas wallpaper brings an expressive, surreal collage of distorted portraits, curious creatures, and dreamlike elements into the room. A central character in an open-mouthed creature costume stands surrounded by exaggerated faces, sketch-like floating shapes, a detailed fish, and a melting clock face with Roman numerals. The design balances fine pencil and ink-drawing textures against deep navy blue tones and pale cyan highlights, giving the entire composition an intriguing, moody depth. Produced to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, our wallpapers are designed to be straightforward to hang while creating an unforgettable artistic statement.

In the room

Because the collage is densely detailed and visually striking, we see this wall mural working particularly well on a main accent wall in a dedicated creative space, home studio, or study. Giving the design an uninterrupted wall area allows all the individual characters and drawn linework to be seen in full context without being broken up by tall furniture. In a living room or eclectic dining area, placing this design behind lower seating or a sideboard turns the wall into an immediate talking point while keeping the room balanced.

Styling it

With such a graphic and surreal visual character, we prefer pairing this wallpaper with relatively clean-lined, modern furniture that lets the intricate line art take centre stage. Natural dark wood pieces or painted matte black elements ground the deep navy background nicely, while minimalist lighting fixtures keep the surrounding space uncluttered. To complement the eclectic mood without competing with the artwork, consider incorporating textured textiles in plain weaves rather than busy patterns.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is composed around a palette of deep navy blue, dark indigo, and pale ice-blue tones, with crisp white line details providing contrast. When choosing surrounding wall colours or woodwork, deep ink blue or muted slate grey creates an enveloping, dramatic atmosphere. If you prefer a lighter contrast on adjacent walls, soft chalky whites, pale ash grey, or cool off-whites help highlight the detailed figures and maintain a crisp, contemporary feel.
