Give the plain living room wall one hard decision, and let everything else relax. The rust brown ground and pale blue tiles do the talking, so your sofa, cushions and shelves can stay quiet. Hung on its own it gives a flat wall a centre of gravity, and it warms up a room that reads a bit cool or a bit new. Put it above a sideboard, a low bench or a bed, or use it to end a hallway. Pair it with terracotta pots, linen upholstery, dark timber and a chalky off-white wall. Don’t crowd it with busy patterned wallpaper or a row of small pictures it wants space either side. On premium fine-art paper the brushmarks and dry edges stay crisp.
