Wallpaper - Lions II - Watercolor Predators Series

Our Lions II wallpaper captures a resting lion and lioness nestled together in the dry grass of an open savanna. Rendered in a fluid watercolor style by Wai Collective, the composition balances the quiet presence of the big cats against a soft blue sky and light, drifting clouds. Earthy tones of sand, warm ochre, and muted tan ground the lower half of the scene, while the gentle watercolor washes create an airy, expansive horizon. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

Because of the horizontal landscape format and central placement of the lions, we particularly like this design on a wider, uninterrupted wall. In a living room, placing it behind a low sofa keeps the horizon line open and lets the artwork anchor the entire seating area. It also works remarkably well in a study or home office, where the natural savanna scene creates a calm, focused backdrop across the main wall.

In a bedroom or guest room, we suggest positioning the mural behind the headboard, ensuring the furniture stays low enough to keep the resting figures fully visible. For children's rooms or nurseries, the soft watercolor washes offer a gentle take on wildlife that feels warm and timeless rather than overly graphic. In rooms with generous natural daylight, the subtle transitions between the sandy grasses and pale blue sky show with great clarity.

Styling it

To complement the earthy warmth of the savanna landscape, we like pairing this design with simple furniture profiles and organic textures:

• Choose warm wood pieces like natural oak or weathered teak to echo the golden tones in the grass.
• Introduce neutral linen or woven cotton textiles in off-white and oatmeal to balance the visual weight of the mural.
• Keep surrounding wall decor minimal so the scenic artwork remains the focal point of the space.
• Add accents in matte black metal or warm bronze to subtly ground the softer watercolor brushwork.

Color combinations

The core palette of our wallpaper is defined by sandy yellow, warm tan, earthy gold, and soft horizon blue. When selecting colors for adjacent walls and millwork, we recommend pulling directly from these undertones.

A soft, creamy off-white or light sand on adjoining walls allows the mural to blend naturally into the architecture without harsh contrasts. If you prefer a richer setting, warm camel, muted ochre, or a dusty terracotta on trim or cabinetry can emphasize the warmth of the lions' coats. For a cooler, balanced look, a very pale sky blue or soft mineral grey on doors or ceiling beams reflects the light wash in the upper portion of the design.
