Wallpaper - Street Safari

Our Street Safari wallpaper brings a bold, energetic street-art aesthetic straight to the wall, featuring an expressive elephant layered with graffiti tags, abstract patterns, and vivid paint splatters. Designed by John Beckley, the composition combines high-impact spray-paint style line work with dripping splashes of vibrant yellow, red, blue, and orange against a dynamic, weathered urban background. The lively contrast and larger graphic scale give this mural wallpaper an unmistakably contemporary, eclectic character. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

Because of the strong visual energy and larger central motif, we see this design working best on an open, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. In a teenage room or dedicated home art studio, placing the wallpaper behind a desk, low shelving, or a bed headboard lets the full graphic repeat and the elephant's dynamic silhouette stand out without being fragmented by tall storage units.

The busy, layered composition means the design can carry the entire visual weight of a room. Rather than wrapping all four walls in such an expressive motif, we recommend dedicating one main wall to the mural and keeping the adjoining surfaces simple, creating a clear focal point that defines the space.

Styling it

To balance the playful, maximalist energy of this street art motif, we would pair it with furniture that has clean, modern lines and minimal decorative fuss.

• Look to simple industrial or contemporary furniture in matte black metal or clean-lined painted finishes to echo the urban spray-paint lines.
• Keep surrounding bedding, desk accessories, and larger fabrics relatively neutral and plain so they do not compete with the intense paint drips and layered tags.
• Introduce one or two small accent pieces, such as a task lamp or desk chair, that pick up on a single accent tone from the motif like the bright yellow or electric blue.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a high-contrast palette mixing primary accents of warm yellow, deep red, vibrant orange, and cool blue over an urban backdrop of layered greys, black outlines, and off-white.

When choosing paint colours for surrounding walls and woodwork, we recommend neutral tones like crisp off-white, soft charcoal, or mid-grey to keep the room grounded. If you prefer a stronger, more saturated interior look, picking out the deep slate or warm charcoal from the background shading creates a cosy, studio-like atmosphere while letting the bright splatters take centre stage.
