Divine Savages X Natural History Museum


 

Can you believe it's been one year since we launched this epic collaboration?! We wanted to celebrate this landmark anniversary with a little look back at the collection, the designs and the inspiration...

Divine Savages & The Natural History Museum – a collection billions of years in the making, and was the first wallpaper collection in collaboration with London’s iconic museum (in fact, it still is!).

The collection, available across our luxury British-made wallpaper, fabrics and cushions, is a wild reworking of the traditional, inspired by the Natural History Museum’s vast array of specimens, original illustrations and paintings that span centuries of natural history exploration.

Here at Divine Savages our mission is to inject a splash of wonder into your home and our designs reflect our passion for flamboyant, daring, interiors. Bring a little bit of history into your home with this exclusive collection.

This detail-rich, large scale wallpaper will bring an artful ambience to any interior.

- Hierarchy -

  

 
Hierarchy celebrates the intricately carved stonework that adorns the exterior of London’s Natural History Museum to create a striking wall covering full of architectural splendour as well as the incredible natural world. The gargoyles featured here are not grotesque or of mythological form, but rather intricately carved animals, with a proud lion taking centre stage.

- Botanize -

  

 
Inspired by the ‘Cathedral to Nature’ at London’s Natural History Museum – the iconic great hall. Most visitors miss the spectacular vaulted ceiling, adorned with 162 illustrated panels showing plants from across the world discovered during the epic adventures undertaken by the great explorers. Our Botanize wallpaper celebrates these illustrations that were a tribute both to the immense diversity of life on Earth, and those working to protect it..
 
Available in Fern Green (above), Lily Blue, Blackberry & Heather.
 
 
 
  

- Botanize Heritage -

  

  
Staying true to the original, our ‘Heritage’ version of Botanize adds an intricate border detail inspired by the painted wooden tiles for a more traditional finish. Printed on a subtly textured base, ‘Heritage’ has a glorious depth that alludes to the history behind this design.
  
Available in Palm Green (above), Plaster Pink, Peppermint & Whale Blue.
  
 
For those who dare to stand out, Botanize Heritage is also available as a luxury bespoke mural. Created on a metallic grasscloth base, this stunning wallpaper delivers maximum impact in any space, the delicate woven texture alluding to the grand tapestries of the past.

- The Original Source -

 

Working with London’s iconic Natural History Museum for this collection was an incredible journey through time, and a personal dream come true. Indulging our passion for nature, and our younger selves’ obsession with Indiana Jones, we were able to raid the vast archives and vaults for the inspiration behind the five designs, creating a stunning collection that we hope continues to inspire a love for the natural world.
