Wallpaper - Exotic Wildlife VI-II

In our Exotic Wildlife VI-II wallpaper by Andrea Haase, botanical illustration meets historical cartography in an imaginative collage composition. Two colourful birds, one in soft pink and the other detailed with striking blue tones, sit perched amongst layered foliage rendered in deep slate blues and purples. Broad, banana-style leaves establish a dense tropical foreground, set against a backdrop of a vintage map showing regions of North America and Europe, complete with delicate compass roses and geographical lines. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We especially like this design in rooms dedicated to quiet focus, conversation, or reading, such as a home study, library, or living room. The collage format introduces multiple layers of interest, with the fine geographical linework drawing the eye in close while the larger birds and bold tropical leaves anchor the view from across the room.

On a main wall behind a desk, sofa, or low reading chair, the wallpaper creates an immediate focal point without feeling overwhelming. Because the pattern combines detailed cartography with broad organic foliage, we suggest giving it a relatively open wall space where both the fine map markings and the larger botanical forms remain easily visible.

Styling it

The heritage, exploratory character of this artwork pairs naturally with classic and curated interior styles. We would look towards mid-tone or darker wood furniture, such as warm oak, walnut, or antique mahogany, to echo the archival feel of the vintage map.

To let the detailed collage remain the centrepiece of the room, we recommend keeping surrounding upholstery and larger soft furnishings in quiet, unpatterned textures. Matt brass, aged bronze, or blackened metal hardware on lighting and furniture legs will pick up the vintage linework beautifully, while a simple woven wool rug in an earthy neutral helps balance the cooler slate blue tones of the backdrop.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by muted slate blue, gentle purples, and soft pastels, contrasted with the subtle pink and brighter blue plumage of the birds.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, and skirting, soft off-whites, warm stony greys, and muted chalky neutrals provide a clean frame that lets the artwork stand out. For a moodier, enveloping scheme in a library or study, picking up the deeper slate blue or a dark dusky navy from the botanical leaves on adjacent walls creates a wonderfully coherent, heritage feel.
