Open the curtains at mid-morning; the deep red will handle the drama. One flower, blown up big, doing the work of a whole feature wall. Put it where a room has gone a bit flat: above a sideboard, over a low bookcase, or on the wall you see first from the doorway. The cream background keeps it from shouting, so it sits happily against off-white, clay or soft green paint. Pair it with warm woods, tan leather, and one or two rust or cream cushions to echo the colour. Don’t crowd it with other strong florals, and skip busy patterned wallpaper behind it this one needs a bit of quiet either side. On fine-art paper the pinpoint dot texture and fine stamen lines stay crisp.
