Against plaster, the soft pink reads less sweet, more deliberate. Stacked organic shapes in deep green, navy, sand and warm clay sit on an off-white ground, with the loose, cut-paper feel of a Matisse study.

A quiet room gets a clear focal point without raising the volume. The shapes give the eye something to follow without asking anything of the rest of the furniture.

It hangs well above a sofa, sideboard or low console, and earns its keep in a bedroom over a chest of drawers. Eye-level, with a bit of breathing room around the edges.

Pair with oak, linen, boucl and a stoneware vessel or two. Brass fittings warm the navy without competing with it.

The canvas weave softens the edges of the shapes and gives the off-white ground a gentle, matte finish.
