Wallpaper - Peekaboo Baby Elephant

Our Peekaboo Baby Elephant wallpaper captures a close-up photographic portrait of a young elephant peeking gently into the frame, featuring its delightfully curled trunk, wide floppy ears, and finely creased dove grey skin. Set against a clean, pale neutral backdrop, the detailed visual texture of the animal takes centre stage while keeping the overall composition light, airy, and uncluttered. Created by Lola Peacock, this charming animal mural brings an endearing focal point to children's spaces and family rooms alike. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a nursery, toddler room, or children's bedroom, we like placing this design on a clear feature wall where the elephant appears to peek out into the room. Positioning it behind a cot, low bed, or reading nook creates an immediate focal point without feeling overly busy, thanks to the quiet neutral background. Because the subject is a large photographic portrait, giving it an open, relatively uninterrupted stretch of wall lets the full character of the motif show clearly.

The design also works delightfully well in a family living room or dedicated playroom where you want a playful yet understated animal theme. In spaces with good daylight, the subtle tonal variations in the dove grey skin and ear folds remain soft and clear, making it a design that easily transitions as a child grows.

Styling it

Because the wallpaper features a focused photographic motif against a quiet background, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture clean-lined and unpretentious. Scandinavian-inspired light blonde woods, warm ash, or soft painted white storage pieces complement the natural grey tones effortlessly.

To echo the gentle character of the design, bring in soft textured elements such as a simple wool rug, chunky knit throws, or unbleached cotton cushions. Avoiding loud competing patterns on nearby curtains or upholstery ensures the cheerful elephant remains the visual centrepiece of the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself is defined by a gentle palette of soft dove grey, deeper slate folds, and a quiet off-white backdrop.

Around the room, we would pair this with soft warm whites, muted stone, or pale mist greys on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want to introduce colour, gentle earthy accents work beautifully: think dusty sage green, muted ochre, or pale terracotta in smaller decorative details and soft furnishings to add warmth while keeping the overall feel calm and grounded.
