Amedee Colore
Amedee Colore is a landscape wallpaper in green. The design spreads scenery across the wall rather than repeating a small motif, so the eye follows the shapes of the terrain instead of settling on a single unit of pattern. Green carries the whole composition, which keeps the drawing coherent and stops it from reading as busy from across a room.
Pattern and color
A landscape print works differently from a geometric or floral one. It has depth built into it, with nearer and further planes, so a wall covered in it gains a sense of distance that a flat repeat does not give. Green is the practical choice here, since it sits comfortably next to wood, stone and plain painted surfaces, and it does not fight with most upholstery colors. On a full wall the scene reads as a picture; on a shorter stretch, such as a chimney breast or an alcove, it reads more like a panel. These are premium quality wallpapers. If the subject appeals, the rest of the landscapes selection is worth browsing, and the narrower mountains group covers similar ground.
Where it works
The paper is intended for the living room, where there is usually enough wall length for the scene to be seen as a whole. It suits rooms furnished simply, since heavy patterns elsewhere will compete with it. Keep pictures and shelving off the papered wall if you want the design to stay legible.
- A single accent wall rather than all four
- The wall behind a sofa, where seating anchors the lower half
- Alcoves and chimney breasts, used as a panel
- Paired with plain curtains and solid-color upholstery
Used as an accent wall, it gives the room one clear focal surface and leaves the remaining walls free for plain paint. The same approach works behind a sofa, where the furniture covers the lower section and the open part of the scene stays at eye level.
French design meets German engineering, made entirely in Europe.
