Seen beside linen, the sunflower study loses nostalgia and gains grit. The deep navy ground pulls the room down a notch, and the mustard petals do the talking.

A quiet hallway or kitchen suddenly has a focal point. The sage leaves bring the wall in line with painted woodwork and softer upholstery, so the print sits like part of the room rather than a poster taped to it.

Hang it at eye level above a console, a sideboard or a small kitchen counter. It works hard on a narrow wall between doorways, and earns its keep above a writing desk.

Pair it with oak, brass handles, linen curtains and stoneware in earthy glazes. Painted off-white walls let the navy ground do its job without a fight.

Don’t crowd it with other strong florals it wants one quieter neighbour, not three. Stretched over a wooden frame and ready to hang straight from the box.
