Three things it does fast: ground dark green, sharpen brass, wake living room. The off-white background keeps the wall feeling light, while the black sunglasses and dark green stripes give the room a firm edge it probably doesn’t have yet. Hang it where people gather and talk above a low sideboard, beside a drinks tray, or on the wall your seating faces. It sits happily with cream upholstery, dark wood, brass handles and a striped cushion or two. Keep the wall around it fairly clear; busy patterned wallpaper or a crowd of small frames will fight the stripes and flatten the whole thing. Printed on premium fine-art paper, so the soft pink and warm skin tones stay clean and matte.
