A living room this pared back can take one serious pink. The sails cut straight across the blue, and suddenly the beige sofa, the plain rug and the white walls all look deliberate rather than unfinished. Hang it above a low sideboard or between two windows, where the blue can bounce off natural light. It sits happily in a hallway too, giving you something bright to walk towards. Keep the furnishings quiet: pale linen, cane, painted timber, plain ceramics. Don’t crowd it with patterned cushions or busy florals, and skip a heavy dark backdrop this one wants space and light around it. On fine-art paper the chalky brushwork and crayon lines stay crisp.
