Beatrice Noir Rouge
Also available in:
Béatrice Black Red is a floral wallpaper with a botanical design in brown tones. Leaves and blooms are drawn across a dark ground, large enough to read clearly from across a room but spaced so the wall keeps some breathing room between motifs. The brown shades shift from lighter to deeper within the design, which gives the foliage definition without adding extra colors.
Surface and finish
The look is shimmering, so the pattern picks up light at an angle and the leaf shapes brighten or recede depending on where you stand and how the room is lit. Under lamplight the effect is more noticeable than in flat daylight. The surface is also textured, giving the paper a slight relief you can feel with your hand, and that fine structure helps hide minor unevenness in the wall behind it. These are premium quality wallpapers. You will find related designs among the botanical patterns and in the closer selection of leaf prints.
Style and rooms
The drawing style and the dark ground place this paper in Art Deco schemes, as well as tropical and ethnic interiors. It sits well with brass or gold fittings, dark wood, rattan and velvet upholstery. Because the pattern carries the wall on its own, plain curtains and simple lighting are usually the better match. Other red and black combinations are worth comparing if you want a similar depth of color.
- Living rooms, including behind a sofa or around a TV unit
- Bedrooms, on all four walls or a single wall
- Dining rooms and hallways
- Kitchens, home offices and bathrooms
In a living room accent wall the botanical motif gives the seating area a clear focal point, while in a bedroom the dark ground makes the room feel more enclosed and settled. It also holds up in a home office, where the pattern reads as detail rather than distraction.
