Wallpaper - Zebra Splash

Designed by artist Kellie Day, our Zebra Splash wallpaper mural brings an energetic mix of mixed-media collage and painterly texture to the wall. The composition centers on an expressive zebra portrait set against a bold cobalt blue backdrop, layered with splattered paint marks, textured brushwork, and subtle collage elements in shades of purple, orange, ochre, and chartreuse. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your specific dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the motif has a large visual scale and strong directional character, we see this wall mural working especially well on an accent wall in a teenage room, creative home office, or dedicated art studio. Placing the wallpaper along a wider wall allows the full dynamic profile of the zebra and the expansive blue field to take center stage. In rooms with ample natural light, the detailed paint splatters and collage textures become distinct focal points, while softer evening lamplight deepens the cobalt background and brings warmth to the earthy ochre and orange accents.

Styling it

With an expressive, maximalist design like this, we recommend balancing the wall with simple furniture silhouettes. Low-profile desks, beds, or seating let the artwork remain visible from top to bottom. Warm wood finishes, such as natural birch or light ash, complement the earthy collage tones without competing with the vibrant blue. For surrounding accents, matte black metal elements echo the dark brush lines and ink splatters in the zebra's mane, keeping the overall room feeling cohesive and intentional.

Color combinations

The palette is anchored by the deep cobalt blue base, balanced by creamy off-white, charcoal, and black within the zebra stripes. Accents of warm ochre, rust orange, violet, and chartreuse add playful contrast. To style around this mural wallpaper, we suggest pulling from the off-white or soft warm gray tones for adjoining painted walls and trim. If you want a more adventurous palette, incorporating furniture or cushions in deep indigo, mustard, or muted plum will naturally tie back into the collage details.
