Wallpaper - The Dogs Of Devon

Created by Julia Dreams, our Dogs Of Devon wallpaper brings together playful illustrated hounds in lively, expressive poses across an off-white cream backdrop. The warm mustard and burnt orange coats of the dogs are outlined in dark charcoal, accented with subtle olive-green and periwinkle collars, leafy trailing branches, and scattered four-point stars. With its block-print character and rhythmic, flowing repeat, this charming pattern adds personality and warmth without feeling overly dense. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical structure in the paper, our wallpapers are straightforward to hang in any room.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working particularly well in spaces where you want to introduce warmth, storytelling, and charm. In a hallway or entryway, the dynamic movement of the bounding and sitting dogs creates an inviting, characterful greeting. In a playroom, nursery, or child's bedroom, the whimsical pet motif feels engaging and lighthearted while remaining stylish enough to grow with the room.

Because the repeat is balanced by open cream spacing, our design works comfortably across all four walls of a cosy study, home office, or reading nook. In a living room, it also makes a lovely feature wall behind a simple sofa or low sideboard, where the repeating pattern has space to unfold without competing with tall, heavy storage units.

Styling it

To complement the heritage-inspired, illustrative aesthetic of our mural wallpapers, we recommend pairing the design with warm wood furniture, such as honey oak, pine, or mid-toned vintage pieces. Simple silhouettes let the energetic figures of the dogs take centre stage.

For surrounding textiles, opt for soft, tactile fabrics like washed cotton, wool, or woven textures in muted neutral or mossy green tones. Keeping upholstery and larger floor coverings relatively calm prevents the room from feeling visually busy, allowing the playful character of the pattern to lead the scheme.

Colour combinations

The palette within our wallpaper features rich burnt orange, warm ochre, and muted olive green, set against a soft, creamy base with accents of dark slate and periwinkle blue.

When painting adjacent walls, woodwork, or skirting, consider a warm ivory or parchment tone to extend the gentle background shade and keep the space feeling bright and cohesive. For a more grounded, heritage mood, a muted sage or olive green drawn from the leafy stems works wonderfully on doors, panelling, or window trim. If you prefer deeper contrast, deep navy or slate grey accents echo the fine line work and collars beautifully.
