For What It's Worth — F. Scott Fitzgerald Canvas Print

For What It's Worth — F. Scott Fitzgerald Canvas PrintWhen the study feels over arranged, this kind of typography helps. The full Fitzgerald 'For What It's Worth' passage sits in clean typewriter black on a plain white ground text doing all the work. It brings a quieter, more thoughtful note to a room. The block of words reads first, then becomes a steady presence you glance at on the way past. It suits a desk, reading nook, dressing table or the wall beside a bed. Eye level works best you want to be

Pair with warm oak joinery

or a dining table

and it shrugs off the odd splash of steam from the kettle

Skip the minimal grey scheme — it'll look like the cat wandered into the wrong house

soft pink or pale blue walls

the temperature shifts

infusing it with confidence and style

Don't crowd it with other busy food prints — one loud lunch on the wall is plenty

tomato puree — laid out like a recipe in pictures

so it suits narrow walls and the space between two doors

Hang at eye level so the spiral reads properly

stoneware and matt-black or brass fittings
