Jardin de Luxembourg, Paris Canvas Print

Jardin de Luxembourg, Paris Canvas PrintCall it cheerful if you want; we call it better walls. A sunlit Paris garden, framed by leafy trees, with the Luxembourg palace floating behind the hedges and a warm gravel path running into the foreground. Put it up and a quiet room suddenly has somewhere to go. The greens cool the wall, the orange planting warms it, and the sky blue band keeps everything light rather than heavy. It likes a living room, hallway or bright bedroom anywhere the wall

a hallway that needs depth

with a small black cat sitting on the sill

ochre and palm green pulling the eye in

The mustard yellow catches the warm light and the room shifts from background to something with a point of view

a dining nook or a sunny bedroom

sunshine and a bit of holiday in your peripheral vision

Don't crowd it with other busy patterns — let it be the visual hook in the room

Three inky black cats sit in a tangle of soft pink roses and sage leaves

high-contrast modern work — the pencil shading needs a calmer neighbour

notice what the warm gold does to dark wood

purple and pink blooms

kitchen or a London-loving kid's room
