Because the artist knew restraint, the deep red zigzag hits harder here. Around it sit calmer bands of teal, soft pink, blue-grey and mustard — a quilt of patterns held together by a chalky cream ground.

Hang it in a room that needs a lift. The colours wake up a quiet kitchen, a pale hallway or a child's room without tipping into noisy. It carries enough pattern to do the work on its own.

Works best on a plain cream, off-white or soft sage wall, at eye level above a sideboard, dresser or low bench. Square format makes it easy to centre.

Pairs with pale oak, rattan, linen and stoneware. A jute rug and a cane chair underneath, and you're done.

Don't crowd it with other busy patterns — let this one talk. Printed on premium fine-art paper, with optional real wood framing.
