Bjarne Orange Blue
Bjarne Orange Blue is a geometric wallpaper built from abstract, graphic shapes on a cream and beige ground. Blue and brown carry the drawing, so the pattern has clear contrast without going dark, and the warm base keeps the cooler blue from reading cold. The forms are stylized rather than strictly repeating squares or diamonds, which gives the wall an irregular rhythm you keep noticing at close range.
Surface and color
The finish is matte, with no reflection, so the shapes stay legible from any angle and the cream ground holds an even tone across a long wall. The surface is textured, giving a fine relief under the hand and softening the edges of the printed forms slightly. That structure also helps hide minor unevenness in the plaster. These are premium quality wallpapers. The four-color range makes the paper easy to build a scheme around: pick up the brown in wood furniture, the blue in textiles, and leave the beige to do the quiet work. More designs in the same vein sit in the geometric collection.
Style and rooms
The drawing and the palette belong to 1970s-influenced interiors, and the muted cream and brown also fit country-style rooms with painted furniture and simple linen. It sits comfortably next to teak, cane, rattan and wool, and it does not compete with plain curtains.
- Living room walls, including behind a sofa
- Bedrooms, whole room or one wall
- Hallways, entries and stairwells
- Home offices and nurseries
In a single accent wall the graphic shapes carry enough weight to stand alone against plain paint elsewhere. A hallway benefits from the pattern's scale, which gives a narrow space something to look at, and in a work room the abstract forms stay calm enough to sit behind a desk all day.
