Wallpaper - Where They Belong, Blue & Black

Designed by Florent Bodart, our Where They Belong wallpaper brings wildlife and woodland scenery together in a detailed, vintage-inspired toile style. Rich slate blue and black illustrations sit against a warm neutral beige ground, depicting deer, bears, bison, lynx, and foxes settled among pines, deciduous trees, and soaring birds against distant mountain ridges. The fine line work and woodblock-print character give the motif an artistic, heritage feel without feeling crowded. Produced made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, our mural wallpapers are straightforward to hang in any room.

In the room

We see this design working naturally in a bedroom, living room, study, or home office where the illustrative narrative has space to unfold. Because the toile-like vignettes repeat with a balanced, rhythmic pacing, our wallpapers can be used across an entire room without overpowering the space. In a dining room or library, it creates an inviting backdrop that draws the eye into the small animal details. The design also works remarkably well on an accent wall behind a sofa or bed headboard, where the calm contrast between slate blue and beige adds visual interest while preserving a quiet atmosphere.

Styling it

To complement the vintage, natural character of this pattern, we suggest pairing it with classic interior elements that echo its woodcut aesthetic:

• Furnishings in warm or medium-toned wood, such as walnut, oak, or antique pine, create an easy connection with the woodland scenery.
• Tailored upholstered pieces in simple woven textiles like linen or wool bring textural balance without competing with the illustrated figures.
• Muted bronze, brass, or blackened iron hardware grounds the slate blue and black lines with understated definition.
• Architectural woodwork, such as painted wainscoting or picture rails, frames the pictorial scenes with historic charm.

Colour combinations

The palette in this design is built on earthy slate blue and dark sketched lines over a soft, warm beige background. When selecting surrounding wall paint, trim, or larger decor, soft warm whites and muted stone neutrals mirror the background paper and keep the space light. For deeper contrast, charcoal grey or slate navy on doors, cabinetry, or window trim will pull out the darkest linework in the animal figures. If you want to introduce an accent hue, muted earthy greens or subtle ochre tones harmonize naturally with the wilderness motif.
