Livy Turquoise Gold
Also available in:
Livy Turquoise Gold is a marble-effect wallpaper in turquoise green with metallic gold veining. The marbling runs in irregular swirls and fine lines, the way cut stone does, so no two sections of wall look quite the same. The gold catches the light and picks out the veins against the deeper green ground, which gives the design contrast without a repeating motif to keep track of.
Pattern and color
Marble patterns work well across large surfaces because the veining has no obvious grid, and the eye reads the wall as a single piece of stone rather than as rows of print. The turquoise sits on the green side of the range, closer to emerald green than to pale aqua, and the gold lines shift in brightness depending on how the light falls. That makes the same wall look different in morning daylight and under lamps in the evening. If the combination appeals, the broader marble selection covers other color pairings in the same style. These are premium quality wallpapers.
Rooms and pairings
A saturated color with metallic detail carries a room best when the furnishings stay simple. Dark wood, brass fittings, velvet upholstery and plain white or cream textiles all hold up next to it. Using it on one wall keeps the rest of the scheme open, though a small room papered on all sides gets a more enclosed, room-defining result.
- Living rooms, including as an accent wall
- Bedrooms and nurseries
- Kitchens and dining rooms
- Hallways, offices and bathrooms
In the living room the veining gives a backdrop for artwork and shelving without competing with it. A hallway is another good fit, since the pattern reads clearly in passing and the gold keeps a windowless space from looking flat. In an office it works behind a desk, where the wall is mostly in view on camera or from a seated position.
