On a warm afternoon, the soft pink looks almost illegally fresh. That is what this piece does to a room it warms the wall without shouting, then drops one deep navy block in to stop everything going sugary. Hang it above a sofa, a sideboard or a low bedroom bench, where the wide shape can stretch out. It sits happily with boucl, linen, pale oak and a little brass. Keep the surrounding surfaces plain: cream ceramics, a stack of books, one plant. Do not crowd it with busy patterned cushions or a second big colourful piece on the same wall the navy corner needs quiet either side to do its job. On fine-art paper the brush texture and thin scratched lines stay crisp and close up.
