Herve Rosa
Also available in:
Herve Rosa is a wallpaper in orange and pink, two warm shades that sit close together on the color wheel and read as one palette rather than as a contrast. The design follows a retro line, so the color pairing carries most of the character here. On a full wall the result is warm and fairly bright; on a single wall it works as a block of color against plain paint.
Color and style
Orange gives the wall its warmth and pink softens it, which keeps the effect friendlier than orange would be on its own. Because both shades are warm, the wallpaper looks best with furnishings that do not fight it: natural wood, cream or off-white textiles, cane, brass and simple black metal. Rooms that already hold strong color are a harder match. If you are drawn to this period look, the wider retro selection covers related designs, and more options in this color family are grouped under pink. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Where it works
The warm tones suit spaces you pass through as well as spaces you sit in, and they hold up well under both daylight and lamplight.
- Living rooms, including a wall behind the sofa
- Bedrooms and nurseries
- Kitchens and dining rooms
- Hallways, home offices and bathrooms
In a living room the orange and pink give a plain seating area something to sit against, and shelves or framed pictures still show up clearly. A hallway takes the full color well, since you see it in passing rather than for hours at a time. In a bedroom, many people prefer it on the wall behind the bed with the remaining three walls kept pale.
