The Bold Comeback of Animal Print
Animal print has strutted back into the world of interiors — and it’s more glamorous than ever. Forget the over-the-top patterns of the early 2000s; today’s take on animal print is sophisticated, tactile, and oh-so-stylish. Whether you love the drama of leopard spots, the warmth of giraffe tones, or the subtle sheen of reptile textures, animal motifs are here to make your home roar with personality.
At Nobletts Wallpaper, we’re embracing this wild trend with a selection of statement cushions and wallpaper that bring a touch of safari chic to any space.
Why Animal Print Works in Every Room
A Timeless Statement
There’s a reason animal print keeps coming back — it never really goes out of style. These patterns are inspired by nature’s most elegant designs, meaning they’re naturally balanced, organic, and endlessly adaptable. Leopard, giraffe, or snakeskin prints can add instant energy to a neutral scheme or bring depth and texture to bolder interiors.
Texture and Warmth
Animal prints aren’t just about pattern — they’re about feel. Think soft velvets, luxurious faux furs, and shimmering embossed finishes. These tactile textures instantly make a space feel richer and more inviting, perfect for curling up with a cuppa on a chilly evening.

How to Style Animal Prints in Your Home
Mix with Neutrals
Let your prints shine by pairing them with soft neutrals — creams, beiges, or warm greys. This allows the pattern to take centre stage without feeling overwhelming.
Layer Textures
Combine different fabrics — faux fur, velvet, satin — to create a rich, inviting atmosphere. Animal prints thrive when mixed with luxurious materials.
Add a Pop of Colour
Try combining animal prints with bold accent colours. Deep emerald, burnt orange, and gold work particularly well to bring out the richness of these natural motifs.
Keep It Balanced
Use animal print as an accent — a few cushions, a feature wall, or a throw. A little goes a long way in keeping your space chic, not chaotic.
Go Wild, Stay Chic
The beauty of the animal print trend is its versatility. Whether you’re dressing up a minimalist living room or adding some flair to a cosy bedroom, there’s a way to make it work for your style.
