wall story

PALM HOUSE

Hand-rendered in pastel and chalk, this characterful sketch of tropical palms evokes a lush jungle feel. Palm prints are still big news in interiors and this one with its midnight background would suit an intimate space such as a dressing room or snug.

IN NEUTRAL

Sometimes introducing colour and pattern can feel a step too far for the minimalist decorator, but a plain white painted wall is not enough.

This is where a textural but neutral wallcovering comes into its own. This beauty will add interest while still sitting happily within a clean, minimal space. Inspired by the 'Mirrie Dancers', the Scottish name for the Northern Lights, the lights shimmering beauty has been translated onto the canvas by weaving in an iridescent cotton thread.
