Call it cosy if you want; we call it better walls. A William Morris-inspired exhibition poster, with a striped tabby cat sat calmly between the twisting branches of an apple tree, in deep greens, cream and warm orange.

Put it up and the room slows down a notch. The dark background gives the wall some weight, and the cream border keeps it from feeling heavy. It looks like a piece you’ve had for years, not something off a trend list.

Works above a console in a hallway, beside a reading chair, or on a bedroom wall where you want something a bit more characterful than a generic print. Eye level is fine; slightly low is better.

Pairs nicely with aged oak, dark green velvet, warm linen, brass and a bit of stoneware. Bookshelves and houseplants help it settle in.

Don’t hang it next to anything loud, glossy or overly modern it wants quieter company. The canvas softens the typography and gives the leaves a slightly painterly feel.
