Wallpaper - Safari Cat I

Designed by Omar Escalante, our Safari Cat I wallpaper brings a bold, graphic presence to the room through striking shapes and a vivid palette. The stylised cheetah profile combines warm orange and bright pink with turquoise, deep teal, and graphic black spots, all set against a soft peach backdrop with a solid red sun disc above. What we particularly like is how the clean colour blocking and playful Memphis-inspired feel give the wildlife motif a distinctly modern character. Printed as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design is simple to hang and creates an immediate focal point.

In the room

Because the cheetah motif has a large visual scale and strong silhouettes, we find it works best on an open, relatively uninterrupted feature wall where the profile can be seen in full. It feels right at home in a creative living room, a modern home office, or a vibrant playroom and teenage bedroom. In spaces with plenty of daylight, the contrast between the saturated pinks and cool turquoise tones becomes especially crisp, while softer interior lighting in the evening lends a warmer glow to the peach and orange background areas.

Styling it

When styling around this mural, we suggest keeping larger furniture pieces relatively grounded to let the artwork take centre stage. Clean-lined mid-century furniture or contemporary pieces in light ash, birch, or painted matte finishes create a balanced setting without competing with the dynamic forms of the cat.

To echo the graphic nature of the wallpaper without overcrowding the space, you might introduce a few simple geometric accents, such as a round ceramic lamp base or a solid-coloured wool throw that picks up on the teal or warm ochre tones. Keeping window dressings and large rugs in simple, unpatterned textures helps the wall retain its visual impact.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a lively palette of warm orange, radiant pink, turquoise, deep teal, and black spots against a soft peach background, accented by a bold red sun.

When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or adjacent cabinetry, we like pairing this design with muted, warm off-whites or soft sand tones to give the wall space to breathe. If you want a more immersive, colour-forward room, pulling out the deep teal or a warm terracotta for adjoining walls creates a rich, cohesive envelope that frames the artwork naturally.
