Once the soft sage green enters, the whole room stops apologising. Three cats black on top, orange in the middle, white at the bottom stacked into one calm, sleepy column with eyes closed and whiskers out. The mood is gentle, not loud. Put it above a cot, a changing table, or a low kids’ bookshelf where small humans can actually see it from below. Pairs nicely with pale oak, cream linen, woven baskets and the odd soft toy. Don’t drown it in noisy nursery patterns or competing primaries this one wants a little breathing room. The canvas finish keeps the soft, hand-drawn feel rather than sharpening it.
