Vine by William Morris Canvas Print

Rooms go quieter when deep navy is this sure of itself. The vine pattern fills the wall with olive leaves, twisting stems and clusters of dusty pink grapes, holding its own without shouting. Hang it where the room can settle into it: a panelled study, a dining wall, a hallway with warm lamplight at the end of the day. It rewards close looking, so put it somewhere people pass slowly. Pair with velvet or linen upholstery, brass handles, walnut or dark oak, stoneware in muted colours, and chalky off-white or deep green walls. Skip pale Scandinavian whites and cool minimalism this one wants warmth, layers and a bit of patina around it.
