Because the illustrator knew restraint, the bright blue hits harder here. A scribbled moka pot, two coffees and a slice of tiramisu — drawn loose, coloured even looser.

Put it up and the kitchen suddenly feels like somewhere people actually sit down with a coffee. It pulls the eye without taking the room hostage. Soft peach behind, off-white walls beside it, and that one pop of blue does the heavy lifting.

Works above a breakfast nook, a coffee bar, or the gap between the kettle and the fridge. Good over a small console in a hallway too, if the rest of the house leans warm.

Sits well with pale timber, brass handles, stoneware mugs and linen tea towels. A second smaller food or drink illustration nearby keeps the mood without crowding it.

The canvas softens the line work nicely and reads well from across a busy kitchen.
