Wallpaper - Dashing Labrador

Our Dashing Labrador wallpaper brings a playful, graphic character to the wall with an illustrated black and white Labrador dressed in style. Designed by Yvette St. Amant, the portrait centres on the dog wearing patterned teal sunglasses, a polka-dot and leaf-patterned light blue neckerchief, and a vibrant floral shirt filled with pink and red blooms. The flat, bold illustration style gives the motif clean lines and lively contrast, all set against a rich, solid dark teal background. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings colour, humour, and personality into your interior.

In the room

Because the motif centres around a single expressive portrait, we like this design best on a feature wall where the illustration can take centre stage. In a teenage bedroom, playroom, or home art studio, positioning the wallpaper on a primary wall without tall dividing furniture lets the character and details remain fully visible. The solid teal background creates a balanced backdrop, allowing the red, pink, and light blue accents in the clothing to stand out clearly across the room.

Styling it

• Give the wallpaper room to lead by choosing simple, contemporary furniture shapes that do not compete with the illustrated portrait.
• Pick up on the graphic aesthetic with clean painted finishes or modern black metal accents in lighting and shelving.
• Keep surrounding soft furnishings relatively calm, using solid textures rather than busy competing prints to let the dog's floral shirt and patterned accessories remain the focal point.

Colour combinations

Our wallpaper features a deep teal background balanced by crisp black and white in the dog's coat, accompanied by warm coral reds, soft pinks, and fresh light blue in the accessories. To complement the mural, we suggest painting neighbouring walls in a soft, neutral off-white or a muted, chalky teal that echoes the background tone. For accent elements, introducing touches of coral, terracotta, or warm dusty pink in smaller accessories helps draw out the rich floral tones of the shirt without overwhelming the space.
