By evening, the ginger cat stops looking decorative and starts working. The room settles down with it, and the garden of poppies and deep greens does the quiet work of pulling the eye away from screens and clutter.

A room that felt a bit flat picks up warmth and pattern without turning busy. The cat holds the centre, the leaves carry the colour around the wall, and everything close by looks a little more considered.

Hang it where you actually sit above a reading chair, a small sofa, a console in the hallway, or a chest of drawers in the bedroom. It likes warm lamplight more than overhead light.

Pairs well with oak or walnut, linen, brass, stoneware, and walls in soft sage, clay or warm cream. Cat lovers, expectedly, take to it.

Don’t crowd it with another patterned print right next to it let the garden breathe. Stretched over a wooden frame and ready to hang straight from the box.
