Wallpaper - Funny Face I

Our Funny Face I wallpaper brings an immediate sense of warmth and curiosity into a room with its close-up portrait of a giraffe. Created by Max Blakesberg Studios, this photographic design fills the wall with rich visual detail, from the soft textures around the giraffe's nose and mouth to its expressive eyes and distinctive caramel and brown fur patches. A softly blurred background of greenery keeps the full focus on the animal's gentle face, giving the motif a playful and engaging character. Printed to your exact dimensions, our wallpapers are PVC-free and produced on a paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the motif is a large-scale portrait where the subject engages directly with the viewer, we see this wall mural working especially well on an accent wall in a nursery, toddler room, kids' bedroom, or playroom. The scale of the giraffe's face means the design has the strongest visual presence when given an open wall area, such as behind a crib, alongside a low play table, or behind a bed.

In a shared family space or a dedicated children's area, placing the wallpaper where it can be seen upon entering the room creates an inviting focal point. Because the background remains soft and uncluttered, the design holds plenty of character without overwhelming smaller or medium-sized rooms.

Styling it

We like pairing this wallpaper with furnishings that echo its warm, organic character. Natural wood furniture in light oak, birch, or warm pine complements the caramel tones of the giraffe's coat without competing with the photography.

To keep the room balanced, we recommend surrounding the feature wall with simple, unpatterned textiles and understated furniture silhouettes. Soft woven baskets, warm neutral rugs, and plain cotton or linen bedding allow the animal portrait to remain the primary story in the space while maintaining an uncluttered, comfortable environment.

Color combinations

The palette in our design centers on warm earthy tones, including deep brown, rich caramel, and soft cream, accented by subtle muted greens in the blurred background.

When choosing colors for adjoining walls, trim, or larger furniture, we suggest pulling from the lighter shades within the wallpaper. Warm whites, soft sandy beiges, or gentle oatmeal tones keep the room bright and let the mural wallpapers stand out naturally. For a slightly more grounded look, warm caramel or soft mossy green accents on painted trim or cabinetry create a thoughtful connection to the earthy elements in the motif.
