First glance: bright orange. Second glance: the birds doing something smarter. Three of them, flat and inky black, with small blue beaks and a run of spotted white feathers along the bottom. Put it up and a plain wall stops being background. The orange throws warmth across the room, and the mustard and dark green blocks give the eye somewhere to settle. Hang it in a kitchen, a dining nook, a hallway or a small study, where people pass and glance. Pair it with dark wood, black metal legs, cane, cream stoneware and warm painted walls. Don’t crowd it with other loud pattern or bright florals, and skip a busy patterned wallpaper behind it. On paper the flat colour blocks look crisp and poster-clean.
