Black & White Animal Print Wallpaper for Living Rooms
Animal print wallpaper – from leopard spots to zebra stripes and flocks of birds – is about personality and fun. It is a favourite for statement cloakrooms.
The living room is where most people start with wallpaper. A feature wall behind the sofa or across the chimney breast gives an instant focal point without overwhelming the space.
Black and white wallpaper is graphic, timeless and surprisingly easy to style.
Our edit of 13 original designs includes busy bee, butterfly, flock of birds, tiger stripe, zebra. Highlights from the edit include Poppleton Butterfly, Bridger Zebra, Fletcher Zebra.

Styling tips
- Ground animal prints with simple, solid furniture and warm metallics.
- Add one accent colour – yellow, green or red – for a contemporary edge.
- Measure each wall separately and include alcoves; our calculator adds the pattern repeat for you.
- Small rooms are ideal: a powder room in leopard spot is a talking point that guests remember.
How much will I need?
A typical living room wall of about 4.2 m wide × 2.4 m high needs 9 drops. With a 53 cm pattern repeat you get 3 drops per 10 m roll, so you would order 3 rolls – from £132.60 on Standard paper to £217.62 on Luxe. Use the calculator on any product page for your exact walls.
Make it your own
Every design in this edit can be recoloured, rescaled and previewed on a photo of your own wall in Design Your Own, then printed made-to-measure.
