Pheasant in Snow by Hiroshige Canvas PrintWhat it adds isn't clutter. It's vertical tension in the right places. A Japanese woodblock scene of a pheasant on snowy bamboo brings a calm, considered feel to a room that already leans quiet. The deep red, blue and warm gold of the bird sit against a soft grey winter sky, so the colour reads as warmth rather than noise. Hang it on a chalky off white or warm grey wall, above a low console, a writing desk or at the end of a hallway where the long

the matt finish softens the yellow and suits older homes with painted or plaster walls

The room feels a touch warmer

Put it up and the wall settles

soft wool rugs and other classic storybook art

It works with chrome lamps

A black cat

The doughnuts

the wall above a console

Don't crowd it with loud prints or a heavy gallery wall

Eye-level works best — this is a piece you read as much as look at

hot orange behind it all — this one walks in and runs the room

The dark background pulls the room together and the tulips read clearly from across the room
