Wallpaper - Tropical Wonderland, Plum

Our Tropical Wonderland wallpaper in Plum, created by Karina Eibatova, presents an intricate botanical jungle illustrated with vintage-inspired engraving detail. Hummingbirds, toucans, parrots, cockatoos, and a coiled cobra emerge from a dense landscape of banana palms, agaves, cacti, pineapples, and lush flowering flora. The deep plum-aubergine ground gives the muted sage, olive, golden-ochre, and dusty rose tones a dramatic, enveloping backdrop. Made-to-measure and PVC-free, this wallpaper features a subtle physical structure in the paper and brings rich natural character to a feature wall or entire room.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working particularly well in a living room, dining area, or creative art studio where the intricate level of detail can be viewed closely. Because the composition contains so many layered plants and animal figures across its height, it rewards placement along a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full botanical narrative has space to unfold.

In a vacation home or sitting room, the deep plum backdrop creates an intimate, grounded atmosphere, especially in spaces with softer natural light or moody evening lamps. If you choose to use our wall murals across multiple walls, keeping door frames and tall storage to quieter positions allows the rich foliage and wildlife motifs to remain the main visual focus.

Styling it

The detailed block-print look of this design pairs naturally with warm wood tones and organic textures. We would style around the wallpaper using furniture in deep walnut, antique oak, or lightly patinated painted finishes that echo its nineteenth-century botanical heritage.

To complement the dense tropical imagery without competing with it, we recommend choosing upholstery and larger curtains in quiet, solid weaves such as unpatterned linen or velvet. Accent pieces in aged brass or matte bronze can pick up the warm ochre tones in the banana leaves and pineapple fruits, while avoiding overly reflective or high-gloss surfaces that could distract from the artwork's fine linework.

Colour combinations

The pattern itself is built around a dark plum base layered with earthy fern greens, muted sage, golden straw, warm ochre, and accents of dusty rose and soft terracotta.

When selecting paint for adjacent walls, trim, or cabinetry, deep plum or warm charcoal shades create a continuous, cocooning effect. Alternatively, pulling out the lighter sage green or a soft stone white from the foliage creates a classic contrast that highlights the depth of the dark background. Rich ochre or burnt amber textiles also work beautifully as accent notes in cushions or throws, harmonizing directly with the warm highlights in the flora.
