Irenee Creme Legere
Also available in:
Irénée Light Creme is a plain wallpaper in a light cream shade. There is no motif to align or repeat, so the color runs evenly from wall to wall and corner to corner. Cream sits warmer than a flat white, which keeps large expanses from looking stark and gives painted trim and doors something to read against.
Color and surface
A solid wall covering does a different job than a patterned one. It holds the background steady, so furniture, artwork and textiles are what the eye lands on first. That makes it useful in rooms where one patterned element already carries the scheme, and equally useful in rooms with a lot going on visually, where another print would crowd the space. The pale cream tone reflects light rather than absorbing it, which helps in rooms with a single window or north-facing light. These are premium quality wallpapers. More options in the same tone are gathered in the cream selection, and the full range of solid designs is worth comparing side by side.
Style and rooms
The shade fits boho interiors built on rattan, woven baskets, layered rugs and plants, where a quiet wall keeps the mix from tipping into clutter. It also works in simpler schemes with wood furniture and linen. Because there is no direction or repeat to the design, it suits walls broken up by doorways, sloped ceilings and stairwells.
- Living rooms, including behind a sofa or a TV unit
- Bedrooms and nurseries
- Kitchens and dining rooms
- Home offices, bathrooms and entryways
In a living room it gives shelving and pictures a clean backdrop, and in a bedroom it keeps the walls calm behind a headboard. The light tone is one of the more practical ways to lighten hallway walls that get little daylight, and in an office it avoids visual distraction at a desk.
French design meets German engineering, made entirely in Europe.
