Best animal fabrics

Fabrics and wallpapers featuring animals are no longer just for the nursery.  Increasingly they are being used to add a relaxed, jaunty feel to kitchens, living rooms and dining rooms.

Often the best come from boutique producers who use their own design and print expertise to produce innovative and quirky designs.  Charlotte Gaisford, Fanny Shorter, Vanessa Arbuthnott, Molly Mahon, Thornback & Peel, Juliet Travers, Susie Watson Designs and Barneby Gates have some fabulous designs in useable colour palettes.

Holly Frean for Andrew Martin
