Back in the 1930s, this kind of travel poster belonged to another kind of home train stations, tea rooms, the wall above a hallway bench where coats came off. This one updates the format with a watercolour view of Nishinomaru Garden in Osaka: red pavilion, koi pond, lotus flowers.

Put it up and a quiet room gets a focal point. The greens settle into the wall, the red pavilion pulls the eye, and the pink lotus flowers keep things gentle rather than loud.

It works above a hallway bench, on a study wall behind a desk, or in a bedroom where you want a calm view rather than a statement. Portrait shape suits narrow walls and the gap between two doors.

Pair with pale oak, linen, simple ceramics and a little black metalwork. Houseplants help too.

Don’t crowd it with other bold travel posters let this one carry the wall. Stretched on a wooden frame, ready to hang.
