Test it this way: if the living room feels safe, size up. One big leaf in soft grey and black is enough to break up a wall of neutrals without adding another colour to think about. The white background keeps things light, so the room still feels open. Hang it above a sofa, a low sideboard or a desk, or use it to lift a plain hallway wall. It works with pale oak, black metal, linen and plenty of real greenery. Keep the wall around it clear busy patterned wallpaper or a crowd of small colourful pieces will flatten the shape. Printed on premium fine-art paper, so the soft washes and the fine stem line stay crisp.
