Modernist Living Poster Art Print

Modernist Living Poster Art PrintBack in the 1960s, this kind of sunlit living room belonged to another kind of home. Now it belongs on your wall. The teal sofa, the warm orange coffee table and the leafy plants give a quiet wall a confident lift without going loud or chaotic. Best as a single statement above a console, a sideboard or a small reading chair, where afternoon light can pick up the orange and warm the whole corner. Pairs well with timber furniture, woven rugs, linen

Skip the busy floral wallpaper and the matching botanical print next to it

folk-print feeling

terracotta pots and warm white plaster

the duckling stops looking decorative and starts working

Hang it at eye level so the flowers do the work

What not to do: don't crowd it with other heavy patterns

What's the dining room missing

Put it up and the kitchen starts to feel less like a workspace and more like somewhere you actually want to linger

What changes once it's up is the temperature of the wall — soft pink and warm cream pull through the lighter parts of the room

The red wakes up cream cabinets and pale tile

or along a galley kitchen between cabinets

sage leaves and gold buds against a near-black ground
