Dark & Moody 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.
Dark and moody wallpaper makes rooms feel cocooning and dramatic, and paradoxically can make small rooms feel larger as the corners recede.
Our edit of 12 original designs includes busy bee, butterfly, flock of birds, leopard spot, tiger stripe, zebra. Highlights from the edit include Kestrel Leopard Spot, Hendry Flock of Birds, Lovell Leopard Spot.
Shown: Kestrel Leopard Spot Wallpaper in Moss & Rust.

Styling tips
- Ground animal prints with simple, solid furniture and warm metallics.
- Use warm lamps rather than overhead light to make dark walls glow.
- 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.
