Wallpaper - Exotic Wildlife V

Our Exotic Wildlife V wallpaper, created by Andrea Haase, brings together vintage cartography and lush botanical illustration. The background features an antique nautical chart of the West Indies and North America, complete with intricate rhumb lines, vintage typography, and compass roses. Layered in the foreground is a rich gathering of tropical foliage, featuring broad banana leaves, fern greens, and vibrant blooms in warm orange and red tones. We produce our wallpapers made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, creating a balanced and characterful focal point for your home.

In the room

We see this design working exceptionally well in a living room, study, or home library where its narrative detail can be appreciated up close. Because the design has a clear horizontal balance, with dense botanical elements rising from the bottom against the lighter, open map background above, it creates a sense of height and vertical breathing room. In a study or reading room, we would give our mural wallpapers an uninterrupted feature wall behind a desk or low seating so the delicate cartographic script and botanical forms remain visible across the room.

Styling it

The blend of historical navigation charts and botanical elements gives this design a refined heritage aesthetic. To style around our wall murals, we recommend keeping larger furniture pieces relatively classic and grounded.

• Pair the design with warm wood tones, such as mid-tone walnut or aged oak, which echo the antique parchment hues of the map background.
• Choose upholstered seating in understated woven fabrics or earthy neutrals so the energetic foreground foliage remains the primary visual focus.
• Incorporate muted brass or antique bronze accents in desk lamps or cabinet hardware to subtly reflect the vintage nautical theme.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built on a base of soft parchment cream and antique off-white, overlaid with rich fern green, deep olive, and pops of burnt orange and botanical red. When selecting surrounding wall paint or architectural trim, warm ivory, soft linen, or muted bone tones create a seamless transition with the cartographic backdrop. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, pulled-out tones of deep forest green or earthy terracotta on adjacent walls or painted joinery will highlight the vibrant botanicals beautifully.
