Cinque Terre Cliffside Canvas Print

Cinque Terre Cliffside Canvas PrintOn a warm afternoon, the deep blue sea looks almost illegally fresh. The red, mustard and green houses stack up the cliff while a quiet path curves down to the rocks. It is the bit of an Italian holiday you actually remember. Put it somewhere you walk past often a hallway, a kitchen wall, the bright end of a living room and the day starts a touch better. Hang it at eye level on a clean, light wall so the sea has room to breathe. Pair it with painted

A Matisse-inspired figure built from loose cut-out shapes

or a small console in a hallway you walk past often

and keep it away from cool blue walls that fight the red

Don't crowd it with other loud prints or fussy florals

so the rest of the room can soften around it

slightly above furniture suits a bedroom

Don't try to compete with it — keep the wall above clear and let one piece do the talking

so it earns its place on the wall instead of fading into the background

or at the foot of the bed

willow china — or the wall starts to compete with itself

or framed in real wood for a finished edge
