The room around it gets a slow grin: card games, in jokes, late night conversations that go on too long. Hang it above a leather chesterfield, a games room sideboard or a bar cart, somewhere a low lamp can pick out the orange lampshade and the green baize. It loves dark walnut, aged leather, brass fittings, deep red rugs and panelled walls in moody colours.

and a touch of brushed brass

This loose hand-drawn still life brings a quick lift of soft pink

One reading lamp

where style meets serenity

It's icy blue with a point of view

It brings a retro travel-poster feel into a room that's gone a bit too quiet

The deep blue coffee pot and warm brown croissants sit firmly against that flat background

or in a dressing area where you want a hit of colour without going full maximalist

Warm peach background

The cream paper and slow-paced bird study calm the room down

and the dark silhouette at the base grounds it

and the small red details give the eye somewhere to land
